27
What operates the Landing Gear?
Retracted and extended by hydraulic actuators, powered by an electrically driven hydraulic pump.
The nose gear hydraulic actuator also operates a mechanical down lock upon extension of the nose gear. A positive mechanical uplock is actuated by a separate hydraulic actuator when the nose gear is retracted. The main gear has positive mechanical up and down locks, operated by separate hydraulic actuators.
28
How do the Landing Gear Lights Function?
Two position-indicator lights show that the gear is either up or down and locked.
The lights are the press-to-test type. The gear-down light (green) has two test positions. With the light pushed in half-way (throttle pulled out), the gear warning horn should sound intermittently, and with the light pushed full in, the light should illuminate.
The gear-up indicator light (amber) has only one test position. With the light pushed in, it should illuminate.
The indicator light contains dimming shutters for night operation.
29
When does the Landing Gear Horn sound?
Whenever the throttle is retarded below approximately 12” of manifold absolute pressure or wing flaps extended beyond 25o with landing gear retracted
30
Where is the Hydraulic Reservoir located?
Behind the central console.
A dipstick and filler are located on the LEFT side of the hydraulic pump
31
When should hydraulic fluid be added and what type?
When the fluid level is at or below the line marked ADD on the dipstick, hydraulic fluid (MIL-H-5606) should be added to the system
32
What should you do if the hydraulic pump continues to run after gear cycle completion (up or down)?
The 30-amp circuit breaker switch labelled GEAR PUMP should be pulled out
33
What are the fuel selector positions and what should be used for climbing, descending, take-off and landing?
Left, Right, Both
Both should be used in those scenarios.
34
Where is the Aux fuel pump switch and when should it be used?
The auxiliary fuel pump switch is located on the left side of the switch and control panel and is a rocker-type switch.
It should be used whenever the indicated fuel pressure falls below 0.5 PSI, but is not required when gravity flow and/or the engine- driven fuel pump can maintain indicated pressures above 0.5 PSI.
35
What is the voltage of the electrical system and where is the battery?
A 28-volt, direct current system powered by an engine-driven alternator, supplies electrical energy. The 24 volt battery is located on the right forward portion of the firewall.
36
What occurs if there is over voltage?
In the event an over-voltage condition occurs, the over-voltage sensor automatically removes alternator field current and shuts down the alternator.
The red warning light will then turn on, indicating to the pilot that the alternator is not operating and the aircraft battery is supplying all electrical power.
37
What should you do if the voltage light illuminates?
The over-voltage sensor may be reset by turning the Avionics Master Switch off and then turning the MASTER switch off and back on again.
If the warning light does not illuminate, normal alternator charging has resumed; however, if the light does illuminate again, a malfunction has occurred and the flight should be terminated as soon as practical.
