1.0 INTRODUCTION
This manual is provided for the owners of

It has two main
priorities:
To inform owners of the level and amount of
servicing required to properly maintain their
floatplane, and to provide technical data and
servicing as specified to maintenance
professionals charged with servicing the floats.

manual are described by their trade names and
may be purchased from the Wipaire Parts
Department.

In this service manual we have worked hard to
include many repair scenarios in addition to the
recommended products, practices, and routine
maintenance required to keep your floats in
working order.
When a float part is significantly changed or
an additional inspection is recommended or
required, often a service letter and/or kit is
issued. If a warranty is issued, most
commonly it is for an 18 month time period,
so it is crucial to check for service letters
specific to your float model at each periodic
inspection to be eligible.
Service Manuals and the installation prints
included are also revised periodically and
also to be kept updated. Service letters,
Service Kits and Service Manuals are
available on our web site at no charge,
www.wipaire.com
.
NOTE:
IT IS CRITICAL TO CHECK FOR
MANUAL UPDATES EACH TIME AN
INSPECTION IS EXECUTED.
