Handling, Serv & Maint
INDUCTION AIR FILTERS
The filters should be inspected for foreign matter at least once
during each 50-hour operating period. In adverse climatic con-
ditions, or if the airplane is stored, preflight inspection is rec-
ommended.
To Remove and Clean the Filter:
1. Remove the access plate in the top of the engine cowl-
ing.
2. Remove the filter and clean as noted by the manufac-
turer's instructions.
3. Reinstall the filter and the plate.
PROPELLERS
The daily preflight inspection should include a careful examina-
tion of the propeller blades for nicks and scratches.
Propeller operation, servicing, and maintenance instructions
are contained in the propeller owner's manual furnished with
the airplane.
When servicing a propeller, always make
certain that the ignition switch is off and that
the engine has cooled completely. WHEN
MOVING A PROPELLER, STAND IN THE
CLEAR; THERE IS ALWAYS SOME DAN-
GER OF A CYLINDER FIRING WHEN A
PROPELLER IS MOVED.
