If light illuminates, check the torque reading. If reading is much too low, land as soon as possible. If reading is accurate, land as soon as practical

If light does not illuminate, check the torque reading. If reading is much too low, shut down engine and make autorotative landing. If reading is accurate, land as soon as possible.

32
Q

What are the required actions from the pilot if the engine oil temperature is higher than the maximum specified?

A

Land if possible, stop engine and check that cooler fan operates

If landing impossible, increase speed and fly at reduced power. Fly at approximately 80 kts. The temperature should fall rapidly. If the temperature does not drop, land as soon as possible
