6.
Throttle - Positioned to approximate 1000-1200 RPM position.
7. Starter - Engage.
B.
Primer - Operate as necessary to initiate firing. Continue to
prime as necessary to sustain engine operation.
9.
Throttle - Gradually retard to BOO-1000 RPM for warm-up.
Observe oil pressure for indication and warm-up engine at 1000
RPM. Ground operation and fun-up require no special techniques
other than warming the engine sufficiently to maintain oil tem-
perature and oil pressure within limits when full RPM is applied.
NOTE . . . Before applying power for takeoff, check that oil
pressure, oil temperature and cylinder temperature are well within
the normal operating range. When full power is applied for takeoff,
insure that oil pressure is within limits and steady.
CAUTION . .. Any of the following engine reactions should be
calise for concern. and are just((ication for aborting the takeoff.
a. Low, high or surging RPM.
b. Any oil pressure indication other than steady and within
limits.
c. Engine roughness.
NOTE ... When flight into sub-cold temperatures is anticipated, the
appropriate Pilot's Operating Handbook should be reviewed as to
the proper use of oil cooler winter fronts. If they are not available, a
strip of I" masking tape may be secured thru the center line length of
the oil cooler to maintain adequate oil temperature and prevent oil
cooler congealing.
