4.6 RECORD AIRCRAFT SERVICING DATA
It is recommended to record the stair lock lever index positions for each type of
aircraft serviced, after determining this on the first application. There are index
numbers at the stop block locations under the adjustable stair section on the right
side. Use these settings thereafter. The stair lock lever (a pivoting pawl) and
markers are visible through the roof window. Use these settings before
approaching the aircraft in the future to lessen the possibility of error or damage.
See 2 - 2.4.
4.7 SHIPPING THE UNIT
If the unit is to be shipped to another location, it should be properly prepared to
prevent damage. All component parts that were strapped or otherwise prepared
at the factory for initial delivery should again be prepared in a similar manner.
The front spring tie-downs should also be removed and the original rubber pads
installed. Loosen the rear spring tie-downs until sufficient spring action is
obtained. Store both front spring tie-down parts in appropriate locations so that
they may be installed at next using station.
