SEARCHLIGHT
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
1. Description and Operation
(Ref. Figure 201) The searchlight installation
consists of a control column mounted in the
floor on the right side of the pilot's compart­
ment, dual lights positioned outside of the
compartment just below the control column,
and an extendible support column for connect­
ing the dual lights to the control column.
A manually operated slidelock, located on the
control column and attached to the extendible
support column, is used to lower and extend
the dual lights below the landing gear skids or
floats during flight. A handle on the control
column is used to position the lights fore and
aft, as required, and can also be rotated in
place to tilt the external lights downward
approximately 120 degrees.
The tilting action is accomplished by a
two-piece shaft installed inside the control
and support columns; the upper shaft is
attached to the gear mechanism in the control
handle, and the lower shaft (which telescopes
over upper shaft) is attached to the gear
mechanism in the dual light assembly.
A switch inside the control column is actuated
whenever the searchlight is moved out of the
full up and locked position (by the slidelock),
and caused the SEARCHLIGHT EXT caution
light on the instrument panel to come on.
Other controls provided for the searchlight
consist of the SEARCHLIGHT PWR and
CONT circuit breakers on the instrument
panel, and the SEARCHLIGHT ON-OFF
switch on the control column.
