HOISTING RINGS

Provisions are made for the installation of four hoisting rings which
attach to the left and right sides of both front and rear spar wing-to-
fuselage attach fittings. Each hoisting ring consists of a hinge which
replaces the washer on the attachment bolt of the fitting. The upper half
of the hinge contains a ring which is used for attaching the hoist when
the airplane is being hoisted. When not in use, the upper hinge half
folds down out of the way. To gain access to the hoisting rings, when
installed, it is necessary to remove the wing-to-fuselage fairing strips.

RELIEF TUBE

Provisions are made for the installation of a relief tube in the aft cabin
area on the Passenger Version. The relief tube is installed on the right
sidewall, just aft of the passenger entry door.

OIL QUICK-DRAIN VALVE

An oil quick-drain valve is available to replace the drain plug on the
bottom of the engine oil tank, and provides quicker, cleaner draining of
the engine oil. To drain the oil with this valve, slip a hose over the end of
the valve, cut the safety wire securing the valve on-off lever in the off
position, and rotate the lever to the on position. After draining, rotate
the valve on-off lever to the off position, remove the hose to check for
leakage, and resafety the on-off lever in the off position.
