MAINTENANCE MANUAL
INTRODUCTION.
This PIPER AIRCRAFT Maintenance Manual is prepared in accordance with the GAMA (General
Aviation Manufacturers Association) format. This maintenance manual isdivided into various Groups which
enable a broad separation of contents (Chapters) within each group.
The various Chapters are broken down into major systems such as Electrical Power. Flight Controls.
Fuel. Landing Gear. etc. The System/Chapters are arranged more or less alphabetically rather than by
precedence or importance. All System/Chapters are assigned a number, which becomes the first element of a
standardized numbering system. Thus the element "32" of the number series 32-0000 refers to the
System Chapter on "Landing Gear." All information pertaining to the landing gear will be covered in this
System Chapter.
The major System "Chapters are then broken down into Sub-System 'Sections. These sections are
identified by the second element of the standardized numbering system. The number"40" of the basic number
series 32-40-00 is,for the "Wheels and Brakes" portion of the landing gear.
The individual units within a Sub-System Section may be identified by a third element of the
standardized numbering system. such as 32-40-01. This number could be assigned by the manufacturer to fit
the coverage requirements of the publication.
