EMERGENCY TRIM TIMER OVERRIDE
SYSTEM (ETTOS)
The ETTOS system consists of a guarded
switch that when activated, bypasses the timer
on the aileron trim system. This allows the
aileron trim tab to move as long as the trim
switch is depressed. When the system is not
activated the trim tab stops moving after 1
second and requires the pilot to depress and then
release the trim rockers to get trim motion in
discrete steps.
The emergency trim timer override system is
easily installed and removed from the Quest
Kodiak aileron trim system. To install the
bypass switch:
1.
Locate aileron trim timer on the
underside of the panel that the aileron trim
switch is mounted. It is a square box about 2in
x 2in x 0.5in.
2.
Follow the 4 wires coming off of the
timer box to 4 pin molex connector J227E.
3.
Disconnect the molex connector and
insert the molex connectors from the pre-wired
bypass switch (PN 1004634)
4.
Route the wires for the guarded
switch to the panel
5.
Install switch in panel below and to the
left of the control yoke per drawing 1004469
See drawing 1004472 for specific connector
schematic. Removal is the reverse of
installation. Install cover into any holes in the
panel.
To check the function of this system the switch
should be activated and the trim rocker
switches depressed. If the aileron trim
indication on the PFD, and the trim tab, move
continuously the system is functioning
correctly. If the trim indicator, or tab, do not
move continuously the switch and associated
connections should be checked.
This system should be checked for proper
function at every 100 hour inspection and
annual.
