BEFORE TAKEOFF
(Continued)
ALTERNATOR CHECK
The alternator should be checked for proper operation before every
flight. Electrical power is essential for all flight instrumentation,
navigation, and radio operation. Check the electrical system during the
MAGNETO check (1700 RPM) by setting all electrical equipment
required for the flight to the ON position. When the alternator is
operating properly, the ammeters will show zero or positive current (+
amps), the voltmeter will show 13 to 15 volts, and the LOW VOLTS
annunciator will not be shown on the PFD. Reduce the electrical load
before reducing engine speed so the battery will not discharge while
the engine is at idle.
ELECTRIC ELEVATOR TRIM
Make sure the elevator trim tab is in the takeoff position when the trim
pointer is aligned with the T/O index mark on the EIS TRIM indicator.
Adjust the trim during flight as necessary to make control wheel forces
more neutral.
TAKEOFF
POWER CHECK
It is important to check full throttle engine operation early in the takeoff
roll. Any sign of rough engine operation or sluggish engine acceleration
is good cause for discontinuing the takeoff. If this occurs, you are
justified in making a thorough full throttle static run-up before another
takeoff is attempted. The engine should run smoothly and turn
approximately 2375 - 2475 RPM with carburetor heat off and the
mixture leaned to provide maximum RPM.
NOTE
Carburetor heat should not be used during takeoff unless it
is absolutely necessary to obtain smooth engine
acceleration.
