EQUIPMENT LIST
eyebolts for the forward tie-down straps are mounted on the cabin floor
near each sidewall just forward of the baggage door approximately at
station 92; two center eyebolts mount on the floor slightly inboard of each
sidewall just aft of the baggage door approximately at station 109; the two
aft eyebolts secUre at the top of the rear baggage wall at station 124. If a
child's seat is installed, only the c~nter and aft eyebolts will be needed for
securing the net in the area remaining behind the seat. A placard on the
baggage door defines the weight limitations in the baggage areas.
Cargo tie-down blocks and latch assemblies are available from any
Cessna Dealer if it is desired to remove the rear seat (and child's seat, if
installed) and utilize the rear cabin area to haul cargo. Two tie-down blocks
may be clamped to the aft end of the two outboard front seat rails and are
locked in place by a bolt which must be tightened to a minimum of fifty inch
pounds. Seven tie-down latches may be bolted to standard attach points in
the cabin floor, including three rear seat mounting pOints. The seven
attach points are located as follows: two are located slightly inboard and
just aft of the rear doorposts approximately at station 69; two utilize the aft
outboard mounting points of the rear seat; one utilizes the rearmost
mounting point of the aft center attach point for the rear seat approxi-
mately at station 84 (a second mounting point is located just forward of this
point but is not used): and two are located just forward of the center
baggage net tie-down eyebolts approximately at station 108. The maxi-
mum allowable floor loading of the rear cabin area is 200 pounds! square
foot: however. when items with small or sharp support areas are carried.
the installation of a 1!4" plywood floor is recommended to protect the
airplane structure. The maximum rated load weight capacity for each of
the seven tie-downs is 140 pounds and for the two seat rail tie-downs is 100
pounds. Rope. strap. or cable used for tie-down should be rated at a
minimum of ten times the load weight capacity of the tie-down fittings
used. Weight and balance calculations for cargo in the area of the rear seat,
baggage and hat shelf area can be figured on the Loading Graph using the
lines labeled 2nd Row Passengers or Cargo andl or Baggage or Passengers
on Child·s Seat.
