PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION
PA-28R-lOl, ARROW
A vertical stabilizer, an all-movable horizontal stabilator, and a rudder (
make up the empennage. The stabilator incorporates an anti-servo tab which
improves longitudinal stability and provides longitudinal trim. This tab
moves in the same direction as the stabilator, but with increased travel.
7.5 ENGINE AND PROPELLER
The Arrow incorporates a Lycoming IO-360-C IC6 four-cylinder, direct
drive, horizontally opposed fuel injected engine rated at 200 horsepower at
2700 rpm. It is furnished with a starter, 60 ampere 14-volt alternator,
shielded ignition, vacuum pump drive, fuel pump, propeller governor and a
dry automotive type induction air filter. The recommended overhaul period
is based on Lycoming service experience. Operation beyond the
recommended time is the decision of the operator. Since Lycoming from
time to time revises the recommended overhaul period, the owner should
check the latest Lycoming Service Instruction No. 1009 at his Piper dealer
for the latest recommended overhaul period and for any additional
information.
The aircraft is equipped with a constant speed, controllable pitCh
propeller. The propeller control is located on the power quadrant between
the throttle and mixture controls. A mixture control lock is provided to
prevent activation of the mixture control instead of the pitch control.
The exhaust system is a crossover type, which reduces back pressure and
improves performance. It is constructed entirely of stainless steel and is
equipped with dual mufflers. Cabin heat and windshield defrosting are
provided by a heater shroud around the muffler.
An oil cooler is located on the forward lower right side of the firewall,
with the air inlet for the cooler located on the right side of the bottom
cowling. A winterization plate is provided to restrict air during winter
operation. (See Winterization in Handling and Servicing.)
