If Micdrow can scan the descriptions for the part numbers, I should be able to translte them for you.
Great info there, Micdrow BTW! Thanks!

Sorry A4K, I never scanned the orginals on this document. They where found here at the LEMB board. Direct link below.

I checked out Micdrow's site, Wilbur, and apparently the nozzles are for de-icing the propeller blades.
The nozzles are straight valves which are connected to a glycol tank placed directly behind the propeller (in the forward engine nacelle as far as I understood it).
The fluid isn't pumped, but fed via a valve and sprayed by centrifugel force directly onto the propeller blades.
Thanks for the link Micdrow, looks like a ton of info in there!
