1. Wing jacks are placed under front spar of wing just outboard of wing strut, and must
extend far enough to raise wheels off ground, and must be of adequate strength.
2. Attach a suitable stand to the tie-down ring.
Be sure tail stand weighs enough to
keep tail down and under all conditions that it is strong enough to support any
weight that might be placed on it (place shot bags or sand bags on tail stand. In
addition, the base of adjustable tail stand is to be filled with concrete for additional
weight as a safety factor.
3. Operate jacks evenly until desired height is reached.
ICAUTION
When using built-in jack pad, flexibility of the gear strut will cause the main wheel to
slide inboard as the wheel is raised, tilting the jack.
The jack must be lowered for a
second operation.
Jacking both wheels simultaneously at built-in jack pads is not re-
commended. Jack pad may be used to raise only one main wheel.
DO NOT USE brake
casting as a jack point.
