DESCRIPTION
"MAN OVRD" emergency fuel regulation lever (Figure 7.6.2)
Emergency fuel regulation lever (3) is normally in OFF position. In case of FCU or throttle failure, it allows setting
engine power manually.
To quit OFF position, move the lever forward overriding the indexation.
The power available if the throttle fails will be limited by the position of the lever.
Lever friction (Figure 7.6.2)
A thumbwheel (Item 2) located on right side of pedestal console increases friction to avoid control slip of the throttle
after setting.

ENGINE INSTRUMENTS

Engine indicating consists of :
-
engine torque expressed in percent (%),
-
propeller speed in RPM,
-
generator rotation speed expressed in percent (%),
ITT expressed in °C,
-
-
oil pressure expressed in PSI.
oil temperature expressed in °C.
-
Engine monitoring is ensured by CAS messages :
the "GARMIN" G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for further details.

ENGINE LUBRICATION

Engine oil is in a tank incorporated into the powerplant. It ensures lubrication and engine cooling. A cooler located
on left side in engine compartment maintains oil temperature within limits. Oil flow into the cooler is metered by a
thermostatic valve. Engine oil also supplies propeller governor and engine torquemeter.
A chip detection system enables the monitoring of engine oil system. The system includes one chip detector
installed on propeller reduction gear box and a second chip detector installed on engine accessory gear box. In
case of chip detection an amber CAS message
Lubrication system content, cooler included, is 12.7 quarts (12 litres). A graduated dipstick allows checking oil
quantity in system. A visual oil sight glass, located on engine left side, allows a rapid checking of oil level.
