the engines valve train.
PERIODIC CHECKS
•
Ensure free movement of throttle and choke levers.
•
Check oil level of main oil tank. Oil level should be within the upper and lower limits of the oil tank and must never
operate below three litres of oil, a recommended maximum oil level of 6ltrs or greater is recommended. On start
up allow for a fall in oil level of around 2 litres prior to the scavenge pump effectiveness.
•
Check security of spark plugs, ignition leads and all electrical wiring and connections.
•
Check both the fuel and lubrication systems for fluid leaks.
•
With both spark plugs removed from cylinders 4 and 5 rotate engine by hand and observe engine “feel”. There
should be no strange noises and the engine free to turn by hand with the absence of hydraulic lock.
•
Remove cowlings where applicable and check engine mounts and engine mount rubbers for looseness or deterio-
ration.

full power note all pressures and temperatures. Engine stop.
• INSPECT PSRU (see next heading).
