    PIPER AIRCRAFT PA-28RT-201 / 201T *MAINTENANCE MANUAL SCHEDULED SERVICING. LANDING GEAR. The landing gear consists of tires, brakes and oleo strut assemblies. These should be inspected for proper gear extension, scored piston tubes, possible hydraulic fluid leakage and security and condition of all connection points.
  • Page 87 PIPER AIRCRAFT PA-28RT-201 / 201T *MAINTENANCE MANUAL FILLING OLEO STRUTS. To fill the nose or main gear oleo strut with fluid (MIL-H-5606), whether it be the addition of a small or large amount, proceed as follows: 1. Raise the airplane on jacks.
  • Page 88 PIPER AIRCRAFT PA-28RT-201 / 201T *MAINTENANCE MANUAL 5. With the airplane raised, compress and extend the gear strut several times to ascertain that the strut actuates freely. The weight of the gear fork and wheel should extend the strut. 6. Clean off overflow of fluid and inflate the strut as described in Inflating Oleo Struts.
  • Page 89 PIPER AIRCRAFT PA-28RT-201 / 201T *MAINTENANCE MANUAL TIRE BALANCE. Proper balancing is critical for the life of aircraft tires. If a new tire is balanced upon installation it will usually remain balanced for the life of the tire without having any shimmy or flat spots, and an inexpensive balancer can be made that will balance almost any tire for light aircraft.
