FUEL DRAIN LEVER

~-- .
After using the underseat quick drain, check from the outside to make
sure that it has closed completely and is not leaking.
A dual analog fuel quantity gauge is located in the lower right portion
of the Horizon instrument installation.
A fuel quantity indicator to measure the fuel not visible through the
filler neck in each wing is installed in the inboard fuel tank. This gauge
indicates usable fuel quantities from 5 gallons to 35 gallons in the ground
attitude. The sole purpose of this gauge is to assist the pilot in determining
fuel quantities of less than 35 gallons during the preflight inspection.
An electric fuel pump is provided for use in case of failure of the engine
driven pump. The electric pump operates from a single switch and
independent circuit protector. It should be ON for all takeoffs and landings.
