Handling, Serv - Maint
Excessive water consumption may be an indication that
the voltage regulator requires resetting. The specific
gravity of the electrolyte should be checked periodically
and maintained within the limits placarded on the battery.
The battery box is vented overboard to dispose of
electrolyte and hydrogen gas fumes discharged during the
normal charging operation. To ensure disposal of these
fumes the vent tube should be checked frequently for
obstructions and should be kept open.
TIRES
An inflation pressure of 30 psi should be maintained on
the 6.00 x 6 main wheel tires. The 5.00 x 5 nose wheel tire
should be inflated to 40 psi. Maintai ning proper tire
inflation will minimize tread wear and aid in preventing
tire failure caused from running over sharp stones. When
inflating tires. visually inspect them for cracks and breaks.
CAUTION
Beech Aircraft Corporation cannot recommend
the use of recapped tires. Recapped tires have
a tendency to swell as a result of the increased
temperature generated during takeoff.
lncreased tire size can jeopardize proper
function of the landing gear retract system,
with the possibility of damage to the landing
gear doors and retract mechanism.
