How To Use The Flat Rate Time (F.r.t.) - Honda NX4 Falcon Catálogo De Piezas

How to use the flat rate time (F.R.T.)

This F.R.T. (Flat Rate Time) is used to determine the standard labor time allowed for replacement
of parts covered by the warranty during the period the warranty is in effect. The F.R.T. for those
parts which are not listed herein should be determined from the operation closely related to the
replacement of that part.
1. The F.R.T. is based on the following servicing conditions
a. A liberal allowance is added to the net servicing time.
b. Standard times specified are based on the condition that the necessary servicing tools
listed in the service manual (motorcycle) which describes the HONDA service policy are
available close at hand and the work performed by a mechanic with normal skill.
c. Time required for inspection and operational test following the servicing is included in the
F.R.T.
2. Method of computing
The job times are listed in tenth of an hour to simplify computation.
Example: 0,3 = 18 minutes
5,6 = 5 hours and 36 minutes

0,2 12
0,3 18
0,4 24
0,5 30
3. Computing the F.R.T.
When several jobs are performed at the same time, make the calculation in the following
manner.
a. Jobs of non duplicated nature
The F.R.T. for the job is obtained by totalling the F.R.T. for each part replaced.
Example: Replacement of cylinder and clutch spring.

The F.R.T. for the job is: 3.5 + 0.7 = 4.2

b. Jobs of duplicated nature
Take the F.R.T. for the last part to be replaced.
Example: Replacement of piston and cylinder head gasket.
Service item
Cylinder head gasket
Piston
c. Jobs of partially related nature
Total up the F.R.T. for all of the parts replaced and then subtract the F.R.T. for the
duplicated operation.
Example: Replacement of gearshift drum and crankshaft comp.
Service item
Gearshift drum
Crankshaft comp.
Crankcase disassembly
Crankcase disassembly is the duplicated operations.
• The F.R.T. shown with (*) includes engine removal and installation.

under the title of their representative work.
