soon as oil pressure is indicated, move
the control to the high RPM position. If
the propeller does not respond, shut
down the engine immediately and check
the propeller and governor. If operation
is satisfactory, warm up engine, and after
completion of warm up period, advance
throttle to some intermediate position (65
to 70 percent of normal rated) engine
speed. Move the propeller control
several times between the minimum and
maximum settings, and check to see that
the propeller and governor function
properly. Finally, move the control to the
high RPM position
customary check of engine manifold
pressure against engine RPM. (In some
installations it is impossible to obtain
take-off RPM on the blocks with take-off
manifold pressure.)
A. Set the manifold pressure equal to
the field barometric pressure (static
manifold pressure gage reading) with
the propeller on the low pitch stop
and note the RPM.
B. The RPM noted
approximately 2000 RPM, depending
on the propeller and its low pitch
stop setting.
