MAGNETOS
Ordinarily, the magnetos will require only occasional
adjustment, lubrication, and breaker point replacement.
This work should be done by a BEECHCRAFT Aero or
Aviation Center or International Distributor or Dealer.
WARNING
To be safe, treat the magnetos as hot
whenever a switch lead is disconnected at any
point; they do not have an internal automatic
grounding device. The magnetos can be
grounded by replacing the switch lead at the
noise filter capacitor with a wire which is
grounded to the engine case. Otherwise, all
spark plug leads should be disconnected or the
cable outlet plate on the rear of the magneto
should be removed .

EXTERIOR PAINTED SURFACES
WARNING
Do not expose the elevator trim tab hinge lines
and their pushrod systems to the direct stream
or spray of high-pressure soap-and-water
washing equipment. Fluid dispensed at high
pressure could remove the protective lubri-
cant, allowing moisture from heavy or pro-
longed rain to collect at hinge lines and to
freeze at low temperatures. After high -
pressure or hand washing and at each periodic
inspection, lubricate trim tab hinge lines and
