NORMAL PROCEDURES
If
the airplane has been operated from muddy fields
or
in
snow
or
slush,
check the main and
nose
gear wheel fairings for
obstructions
and cleanliness. Operation
from a
gravel
or cinder
field will
require
extra
attention
to
propeller tips and
abrasion on
leading edges of
the
horizontal tail.
Stone
damage to
the propeller
can
seriously reduce
the
fatigue
life
of
the
blades.
Airplanes that are operated from rough
fields,
especially
at
high
altitudes,
are
subjected to
abnormal
landing gear
abuse. Frequently
check all
components
of
the landing gear, shock
strut,
tires,
and
brakes.
If
the shock
strut
is
insufficiently extended,
undue landing
and taxi loads will be subjected on the airplane
structure.
To
prevent
loss of fuel in flight, make
sure
the
fuel
tank filler
caps
are
tightly sealed after any fuel
system
check or servicing. Fuel
system
vents
should also
be
inspected for obstructions,
ice
or
water,
especially
after
exposure
to cold, wet
weather.
STARTING ENGINE
In cooler
weather,
the engine
compartment
temperature
drops
off
rapidly
following engine shutdown
and
the injector
nozzle
lines
remain nearly full of fuel.
However,
in
warmer
weather,
engine
compartment temperatures
may increase rapidly following engine shutdown, and
fuel
in the
lines
will
vaporize
and
escape into the intake manifold. Hot weather
starting
procedures depend
considerably
on how soon the
next
engine start
is
attempted.
Within
the first
20 to 30
minutes after
shutdown, the fuel manifold is
adequately
primed and the
empty
injector
nozzle
lines will
fill
before
the
engine
dies.
However, after
approximately
30 minutes,
the
vaporized fuel in the manifold will
have nearly
dissipated and
some
slight
“priming”
could be
required
to
refill
the nozzle lines and
keep
the
engine running
after the
initial
start. Starting
a
hot
engine
is facilitated by advancing
the mixture
control
promptly
to 1/3
open when the engine
starts,
and
then|
smoothly
to
full rich as power develops.
