Landing gear
Nose gear tire
5.00-5 10 PR - Inflation pressure : 98 psi (6.7 bars) *
Main gear tires
18 5.5 10 PR - Inflating pressure : 135 psi (9.32 bars) *
Nose gear shock absorber
Fill with hydraulic fluid AIR 3520 B (MIL.H5606E) ; inflate with nitrogen to 87 psi
(6 bars).
Main gear shock absorbers
Fill with hydraulic fluid AIR 3520 B (MIL.H5606E) ; inflate with nitrogen to 160 psi
(11 bars).
Hydraulic system
Check every 100 hours and service with AIR 3520 B (MIL.H5606E) hydraulic fluid.
Brakes
Service as required with AIR 3520 B (MIL.H5606E) hydraulic fluid.
●
NOTE
●
A higher inflation pressure has to be applied to tires and shock absorbers when
in very cold conditions - refer to chapter 8.9.
●
(*) Tire inflation pressures are given for an airplane on ground at 21
°
C.
An ambient temperature change of 3
°
C produces approximately 1 % pressure
change.
