Adjust throttle stops (mounted on the throttle pushrods for panel mount throttle and on the seat
front / floor for seat-mounted throttle) to give full throttle and correct idle speed. Details for
procedures can be found in the Engine Maintenance Manual.
Adjust friction of shaft clamps to ensure throttle does not move from a set position.
WARNING
Adjustments must be set with care: poorly adjusted throttle stops can result in engine
stoppages, apparent loss of power or increased landing distances due to high idle.
Poorly adjusted friction stops can result in throttle position creeping
– resulting in un-
commanded application of high power.
CASES OF SEVERE DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT DUE TO THESE EFFECTS HAVE BEEN RECORDED
