Handling, Servicing and Maintenance
8.1.
General
Every owner of an FK 9 should keep close contact to the manufacturer for
best support.
8.2.
Ground Handling
Aircraft should be parked with the nose facing into the wind and secured by
putting chocks in front of the wheels. To tie down the aircraft, attach long
straps to the bolts connecting the wing to the strut and also tie down the
nose- / tailwheel.
The aircraft should not be parked in wet conditions or exposed to UV
radiation for a long period of time.
The windscreen should always be covered during parking to avoid getting
dirty.
The FK 9 can be stored in a trailer. For details consult the manufacturer.
8.3.
Cleaning
A clean surface is very important for aircraft performance. Therefore the
whole aircraft and especially the leading edges of the wings and propeller
blades should be kept as clean as possible.
Cleaning is preferably done by using a lot of water, if required a mild soap
may be added.
Once a year the painted surface should be treated with a silicon-free polish.
8.4.
General Advice
The vibration dampers at the engine mount should be treated
regularly with vaseline to prevent aging.
Fuel lines, cables and bowden-cables must not be damaged.
Note: never turn the propeller for more than 1 turn in opposite
direction
Airplane maintenance must be performed following the
manufacturer’s latest maintenance schedule. The actual
maintenance schedule can be downloaded from the website
