REPORT SC10000AFM
Issued: 08/01/06
Page Number: 7-10
Date of Revision: 11/23/18
The engine may be operated on the Both, Left, or Right
positions. However, the Both position is required for
takeoff and landing.
Fuel quantity is determined by two sight-gauges located
on either side of the cockpit at the wing root. The
ventilation of the tanks is through the forward facing
vented fuel caps.
Prior to refueling the aircraft, connect the fueling
equipment’s grounding wire to either of the wing tie
downs or the exhaust pipes. This will ensure there is no
electrical potential difference between the aircraft and the
fueling equipment and will minimize the risk of electrical
sparks when the aircraft is being refueled.
7.5.10 ELECTICAL SYSTEM
The main sources of electrical energy are a 12 volt
battery and a 30 ampere alternator. The system has an
over voltage relay and a voltage regulator. The battery is
located underneath the front seat.
7.5.11 LIGHTS
Optional anti-collision light assemblies may be installed
on each wingtip. These consist of a navigation light and a
strobe. There may also be a position light on the rudder.
An optional landing light may be mounted in either the
leading edge of the left wing or in the leading edge of the
left and right wings.
Optional LED lighting package may be installed on the
aircraft. On the LED system, the NAV light must be
turned on first in order for the strobes to operate.
