MIXTURE LEANING
A.
Increased combustion efficiencies from the LASAR
®
system may result in higher cylinder head
temperatures (CHT). Follow the mixture leaning procedures contained in the engine operating
manual to maintain CHT below the maximum limit.
B.
Never factor in any improvement resulting from a LASAR
®
system, as these improvements will
vary from flight to flight depending on the flight profile and mixture leaning procedure. Fuel
consumption for a given power setting should not be higher than the amount specified in the
original flight manual.
3.4
IN-FLIGHT RESTART
A.
Automatic Mode
Restart the engine using the normal engine start procedures detailed in the engine operating
manual. Engine may be windmilled above 500 RPM as an alternative.
B.
Backup Mode
When operating in the backup mode, LASAR
®
magnetos have no provision for providing boosted
spark energy when the starter is used to start the engine. Engine must be windmilled above 500
RPM to achieve restart.
3.5
GROUND HANDLING
A.
The LASAR
®
system is armed and ready to fire at engine TDC when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” or “START” position and the master switch is “ON”. Forward or reverse movement of the
propeller may trigger an ignition event.
WARNING:
DO NOT MOVE THE PROPELLER BY HAND WHEN THE IGNITION SWITCH IS IN
THE “BOTH” OR “START” POSITION AND THE MASTER SWITCH IS “ON”.
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT.
