Prior to engine start, the left seat pilot will set the parking brake. The placard by the pedals has
the following instructions:
To set: Depress pedals and pull handle to hold
To release: Depress pedals
The C-130 parking brake can be difficult to set, use the following expanded instructions for best
results:
a. Make sure the pedals are even
b. Depress both pedals fully
c. Pull out on the parking brake handle
d. Slowly release the parking brake handle
e. Ensure pedals remain depressed and are even.
STARTING ENGINES AND BEFORE TAXI
The flight engineer runs the STARTING ENGINES checklist. Normally, the engines are started
using bleed air from the APU. Starting order is 3, 4, 2, 1. The pilot starts each engine in turn
once cleared by the loadmaster.
(Pilot) – “Clear number [1, 2, 3, 4] engine”
(Loadmaster) – “Number [1, 2, 3, 4] clear”
(Pilot) – Move condition lever to from GROUND STOP to RUN. Engine start is the one
exception to the rule that the pilot never touches the condition levers:
(Pilot) – Engage the starter on the forward portion of the overhead panel. Early C-130 starters
engage with a pushbutton, while later aircraft have spring loaded toggle switches. Both the
pushbutton and switches are spring loaded and need to be held engaged by the pilot.
Do not
engage the starter if the engine/propeller is rotating, or re-engage the starter if your hand
slips off the button/switch.
