7.15 Pitot and static system

see diagram 8 M.M.
Pitot probe in fuselage nose, static ports a short distance behind fuselage nose.
The airspeed indicator and the altimeter are to be connected to these ports and
probe.
Probe (PC) for the stall warning device below the fuselage nose.
Additional holder for a TE-probe or a Multiprobe in the fin is to operate
variometer and flight computer systems. To preserve the sealings inside the
holder, the end of the probe should be greased with e.g. Vaseline from time to
time.

7.16 Canopies

To jettison the canopies in flight see section 3.2.
Removing a canopy:
Open the canopy, detach the retaining cable and if installed detach the gas strut
from the front canopy. Then close the canopy and operate the red canopy
emergency release handle (right) and the white-red canopy opening handle
(left). Lift the canopy upwards.
Reinstalling a canopy:
Open emergency release and canopy locking levers. Place the canopy in vertical
direction onto the fuselage. Close the emergency release. Open the canopy and
snap in the retaining cable and the gas-strut (if installed).
Checking the canopy emergency release system:
a)
check with open front canopy if the gas-struts (if installed) can be
disengaged from their ball fittings (from canopy and from fuselage). Grease
the ball fittings.
b)
check with closed canopy if the emergency release handle can be operated
and if the canopy can be removed easily, resp. if the canopy will be lifted
by the gas-strut. Grease the locking pins.
