4.33 STOPPING ENGINE
At the pilot’s discretion, the flaps should be raised and the electric fuel
pump turned OFF. The radios should be turned OFF, and the engine
stopped by disengaging the mixture control lock and pulling the mixture
control back to idle cut-off. The throttle should be left full aft to avoid
engine vibration while stopping. Then the magneto and master switches must
be turned OFF.
NOTE
When alternate fuels are used, the engine
should be run up to 1200 RPM for one minute
prior to shutdown to clean out any unburned
fuel.
NOTE
The flaps must be placed in the UP position
for the flap step to support weight. Passengers
should be cautioned accordingly.
4.35 PARKING
If necessary, the airplane should be moved on the ground with the aid of
the nose wheel tow bar provided with each airplane and secured behind the
rear seats. The aileron and stabilator controls should be secured by looping
the safety belt through the control wheel and pulling it snug. The flaps are
locked when in the UP position and should be left retracted.
Tie downs can be secured to rings provided under each wing and to the
tail skid. The rudder is held in position by its connections to the nose wheel
steering and normally does not have to be secured.
