STEMME TSA-M MAINTENANCE MANUAL (3) When the section/subsystem element number is followed with zeros in the subject/unit element number (28-20-00), the information is applicable to subsystem within the system. (4) The subject/unit element number is used to identify information applicable to units within the subsystems.
STEMME TSA-M MAINTENANCE MANUAL (2) Each chapter begins with: Title Table of Contents Figures The figures within the sections of a chapter are numbered in accordance with the appropriate page number block. Numbering is beginning by one (1) and continuous.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL TOWING AND TAXIING - GENERAL 1. Introduction This chapter describes the towing procedure and the taxiing procedure for the S6. It contains instructions as to how the aircraft can be moved without a tow bar. 2. General Description In the following, a brief description and intended purpose of each section of this chapter is given.
APPROPRIATE WEIGHT SHOULD BE PLACED INSIDE THE COCKPIT. Towing by Tow Bar The S6 is usually moved manually by means of a tow bar. The following technique should be kept: (1) Insert tow bar into the appropriate openings on the tow bar support attached to the nose wheel tube.
