7.2.2 Disassembly of the nose wheel
The disassembly demands co-operation of two persons.
To disassemble a nose wheel proceed this way:
- chock the wheels of the main undercarriage using wheel chocks on both sides of the
wheels
- remove upper and lower engine cowlings
- by pushing down on the fuselage in front of the vertical stabilizer lift up a nose wheel
- support the nose under the engine mount
- loose the screws from the front wheel axle and screw them out
- remove the wheel
To assemble a nose wheel proceed the reversed way. The old screws should be replaced
with new ones, mark the screw position with marker.
7.2.3 Disassembly of the main wheel
The disassembly demands the co-operation of two persons.
-
chock undamaged wheel of the main undercarriage using wheel chocks on both sides of
the wheel
- lift up a wing on the side of the disassembled wheel and support it under the main spar
- screw out a safety nut holding the wheel
- slide out the wheel from the axle
To assemble a main wheel, proceed the reversed way.
7.2.4 Tire repairs
A punctured inner tube can be fixed using the same agents as for fixing car inner tubes.
Damaged tires should be replaced.
7.2.5 Electrical installation
Basic electrical installation on the plane works with voltage of 12V and two wire conductors.
The electrical installation is equipped with no individual fuse. Some of the electrical
appliances (for example the transceiver) are equipped with their own fuse. If the voltage in
the installation decreases while switching on appliances (for example while setting angle of
attack of the propeller) or the Flydat (or other EFIS) drops out check the cleanness and
tightening of the connection of battery and the level of electrolyte. If the condition remains,
contact the service center of the producer.
