    Manual B – Operations There is a possibility that there may be water residue or small intrusions present in the fuel. It is advisable to filter the fuel before placing in the tanks in order to preserve the fuel circuit from impurities that may damage the components.
  • Page 73 Manual B – Operations Check the tightness of the propeller and the absence of any play between the propeller blades and hub. Leaks Inspection Check for the leakage of fuel, coolant or lubricant. In particular, before moving the aircraft, it is good to check the floor below the engine or tanks for the presence of stains or smudges due to defects in onboard systems.
  • Page 74 Manual B – Operations up the pressurized circuit is low, it is necessary bleed the cooling system as described in section A.9.6., but not before isolating the cause that led to the low level. If the engine requires frequent topping up of the water circuit is likely that there is a leak from the head gasket: running the engine in this condition can cause a detonation phenomena, resulting in serious mechanical damage.

    Manual B – Operations position follow the fuel line from tank up to the engine and check for leaks or even small leakages of fuel. Carefully check the area of the shunt fuel, which has to be clean and free of sludge or smudges of greenish color.
  • Page 76: B.7.3.3. Engine Warm Up

    Manual B – Operations Do not start the engine with throttle in fully open position: this not only makes starting more difficult, but also may cause damage to the starter system. Set the master switch to the on position. Power on the main fuel pump for about 3 seconds, so as to pressurize the fuel system, the pump will restart automatically when the engine starts and will automatically turn off when the engine stops.

    Manual B – Operations Upon reaching 50° C, the FADEC system will impose a new engine idling speed of between 950 and 1050 RPM. If the oil temperature is above 50° C then the engine will immediately run at a speed of between 950 and 1050 RPM after starting.
  • Page 78: B.7.3.5. Tak E Off

    Manual B – Operations Bring the throttle into full open position. The engine should reach the expected RPM. Bring the throttle back into idle position. The engine should neither turn off nor manifest irregularities. Also check that the throttle runs regularly without jamming. If even one of these checks fails, or if there are doubts, it is mandatory not to fly, and perform all the necessary ground checks.
