agents as used for cars for such purposes.
About once a month conserve the airplane with the agents used for cleaning and conserving the
body of cars, including the glass parts and the airscrew. Clean the cabin with vacuum-cleaner
and check if there are no undesirable objects in the back.

6.6.Before flight inspection
The before flight inspection starts on the left side of the cabin and proceed in the way
clockwise. Perform this inspection and tasks:
the overlap of the cabin: check the cleanness, damage of the overlap, possible faults on locking
cover of the engine: take off its upper part, check the screws of the hang up of the engine
bed. check the cable hang up, connection of the connectors, hang ups on the accumulator.
Check the tightening of the fuel hosepipe, air filter, exhaust stroke hang up / tightening the
screw of the dashpot stirrup, check up the spring integrity of the exhaust stroke piping /, check
the tightness of oil cooler and the cooling liquid cooler.
Check the untightness of the sparks which could signalize its slacking. Check in need refill the
oil, cooling and brake liquid, and also the level of battery solution in the accumulator. The
cooling liquid should reach 2/3 of the maximum volume of the tank / at cool engine /. The oil
level must be between the signs min and max and can not be lower than min. Before longer
operation with the airplane it must be at least in the middle between the signs min and max.
Check possible fouling of the fuel filter, change it if necessary. If you recognize the fuel filter
fouling in the engine space, perform extraordinary inspection or change the fuel filters of the
subsidiary tanks in the interior of the cabin. Assembly the cover of the engine. Check the

especially at hung up places, or at places where they are connected to metallic parts of the
engine.
Check attentively the linking of the carburettor with the dashpot stirrup thank to the rubber
pipes. If you find out that some of the pipe releases at the neck of the carburettor even though
it had been tightened, it is necessary to take it off and change the introduced way / see the
maintenance /.
If the pipe is rubbed conically, it is necessary to assume that the small parts of the
rubber could have gotten in to the carburetor stirrup. Entrust its cleaning and
setting to special firm.
Propeller: check the hang up, possible damage, airscrew cone hang up, if the airscrew is
electronically adjustable, check if it does reconstruct
