VI

Emergency system for the spindle drive (cont.)

Warning:

Operation with the emergency system should be limited to emergency
situations. If the red switch flap is folded upwards, all security checks of the
power plant control system are switched off, in contrast to operation with the
manual control switch. The following applies to the operation with the
emergency system:

- The electric starter motor can be operated in any position of the power

plant and even if the engine is running!

- The power plant can be extended and retracted with the emergency switch

even if the engine is running and regardless of the speed or position of the
propeller!

- Due to the vibrations during flight with idle power setting a regular

readjustment of the spindle drive is to prevent creeping retraction of the
powerplant. This function is performed automatically by the powerplant
control system during normal operation.
When operating with the emergency system, this tracking function is not
applicable!

Note:

If the circuit breaker for the power plant control system is still closed during
operation with the emergency system and the TFT display of the operating
unit is working, the following displays will be visible:

- When the red switch flap is opened, the TFT display shows the

corresponding warning message. This message can be switched off by
pressing the MENU button. Then the operating unit displays all functional
systems for monitoring the power plant.

- If the limit switches for the power plant are still functional, they are

detected, and the reaching of the limit positions is indicated by the position
indicator in the operating unit.
