7.15 BRAKE SYSTEM
The aircraft has a single disc, hydraulically actuated brake on each main undercarriage wheel.
Each brake is connected by a hydraulic line to a master cylinder fitted to the front of the centre
console in the cabin. The wheel brakes operate simultaneously. When the aircraft is parked, the
parking brake is set by pulling the brakes on and engaging the park brake cam fitted to the lever.
To release the park brake, pull the brake lever back and release the cam.
CAUTION
Check park brake is OFF prior to landing.
7.16 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The J160-C has a 12 volt electrical system consisting of a 12 volt battery, starter motor,
regulator, alternator with a nominal 14 volt output, electric flap, electric fuel boost pump, circuit
breakers, oil temperature gauge, optional strobe lights, switches and related wiring. The
electrical system is constructed as a dual bus system. An instrument bus, powered from the
main bus, powers the instruments and radios. The master bus powers all other electrical systems
in addition to the instrument bus.
The master switch (mounted on the lower left hand side of the instrument panel) controls power
to the main bus. Another switch controls the connection between the main bus and the
instrument bus. The Master bus connects with the battery. The feed from the alternator goes to
the battery, which acts as a filter, reducing noise in the bus system. All other switches are
located along the lower left side of the panel. The circuit breakers are fitted along the lower right
side of the instrument panel.
A warning light connected to the regulator illuminates to provide an indication should the
alternator cease charging. The regulator delivers a regulated nominal 14 volts to the aircraft
battery. Refer to Figure 7.15 and 7.16b for a simplified schematic of the electrical system.
NOTE
The master switches are not switch breakers and their circuits are protected by circuit breakers
found in the lower right side of the instrument panel.
