08-20-00 LEVELING
N O T E Level the aircraft only on even floor and in closed shops
(wind protected).
1 Secure each main wheel with two wheel chocks.
W A R N I N G Do not lift tail wheel higher than necessary for level-
ing. The aircraft may tilt onto the nose.
N O T I C E Prior to levelling, ensure aircraft is clear of obstruc-
tions.
2 Lift tail and put the jack (height: ~90 cm (~3 ft)) under the
tail wheel, which has to be in the rearmost position.
3 Level the aircraft to its horizontal reference line using a
spirit level (2, figure 1), which is to put under the bolts of
the rear main fuselage cover (1). Adjust pitch by changing
the jack height.
