ENGINE CONTROLS
Engine controls consist of
a
throttle control and
a
mixture control
lever.
These
controls
are located
on
the control quadrant on the lower center
of
the instrument panel (Figrrre 7-5) where they
are accessible
to
both the pilot
and the copilot. The controls utilize teflon-lined control
cables
to
reduce
friction
and
binding.
The
throttle
lever is used
to adjust engine RPM. The mixture control lever is
used
to adjust
the air to
fuel ratio. The
engine is
shut down
by the placing
of
the mixture control
lever
in the full lean position. In
addition, the mixture control
has
a lock
to
prevent inadvertent activation
of
the mixture control. For
information on the leaning procedure,
see
the
Avcel-ycoming Operator's
Manual.
The friction adjustment lever on the right
side
of the control quadrant
may be adjusted
to
increase
or
decrease the
friction
holding the
throttle
and
mixture controls or to lock the controls in
a
selected
position.
The carburetor heat control
lever
is
located
to
the right
of
the control quadrant on the instrument
panel. The control
is
placarded
with two
positions:
"ON"
(down), "OFF"
(up).
