Two 29.9 gallon fuel tanks are located in the wings just
outboard of the wing root. A visual measuring tab located
below the tank filier neck facilitates a fuel load of 15
gallans when the fuel reaches the bottom of the tab, or 20
gallans when the fuel reaches the top of the slot. This
partial filling of the fuel tanks allows an increase in the
payload . The fuel indicators on the instrument panel will
indicate fuli tanks even though each tank contains only 20
gallans of fuel.

CAUTION
Connect a grounding cable from the fuel ser-
vice unit to the airframe, and connect ground -
ing cables from both the fuel service unit and
the airplane to ground during fueling opera-
tions. This procedura reduces fire hazard .
