8.4.1 Airplane towing
It is possible to move the airplane on a short distance by holding
the fuselage end in the position before the fin, eventually by holding
the root part of wings.
The hand towing bar can be used for airplane relocation which will
be fastened to the nose wheel axis.
To turn the airplane on the spot, push on the fuselage end part in
the area before the fin, lift the nose wheel and turn the airplane in
required direction.
WARNING
SWITCH OFF IGNITION BEFORE GROUND
HANDLING WITH THE AIRPLANE!

THE WING TIPS, HTU, VTU ETC.
WHEN HANDLING THE AIRPLANE BY MEANS
OF THE TOWING BAR, PROPELLER BLADES

8.4.2 Airplane parking
It is the most suitable solution to place the airplane into a hangar
possibly into another covered room with stable temperature, good
venting, low humidity and dust-free environment. In case of parking
out of the hangar it is necessary to anchor the airplane and at long-
term parking to cover the canopy, possibly the whole airplane with
suitable tarpaulins.
