16
Q

Why will the pressure indicator show 2300 PSI in the event of system fluid loss or a dual pump failure?

A

The pressure-maintaining valve has closed, trapping pressure in the main accumulator for normal brake operation

17
Q

In the event of a dual pump failure or system fluid loss, what system should be available?

A

Normal brakes

18
Q

In the event of a dual pump failure or system fluid loss, what systems can be operated by the AUX hydraulic system?

A

Landing gear and flaps

19
Q

Is there any indication for system fluid loss?

A

No

20
Q

How can system fluid loss from a subsystem be detected?

A

An abnormal drop in pressure as that subsystem is activated

21
Q

Can flight be continued in the event of a HYD OVHT indication?

A

Yes, however fault must be corrected prior to the next flight

22
Q

How is the AUX hydraulic system pressurized?

A

The hand pump

23
Q

What is the capacity and location of the AUX hydraulic tank?

A

6 pints, located in the nose gear bay

24
Q

What AUX hydraulic fluid level reduction will result in an AUX HYD LO LEVEL annunciation?

A

> = .5 pints

25
Q

Is lowering of the landing gear available via the AUX HYD system if the landing hear position handle is in the up position?

A

Yes

26
Q

What must you do first in order to lower the flaps via the AUX HYD system?

A

Place the flap position lever in the appropriate position

27
Q

When using the AUX HYD system, what system is always actuated first?

A

The landing gear

28
Q

Can the AUX HYD system be used to retract the landing gear?

A

No

29
Q

What operations should the AUX HYD reservoir provide sufficient fluid to conduct?

A

Lowering the landing gear, lowering then retracting the flaps

30
Q

CAUTION: If the AUX HYD system selection has been made following a main system failure, can you reset the AUX system in flight?

A

No

31
Q

CAUTION: What can reseting the AUX HYD system after failure of the main HYD system result in?

A

Collapsing of the landing gear

32
Q

What does pulling the AUX HYD SYSTEM lever do?

A

Releases the balk arm, freeing the hand pump
Closes the on-off valve, allowing hand pump pressure buildup
Positions the dump valve to block main system pressure and to connect main landing gear actuators to the reservoir return
Landing gear handle no longer controls gear movement

33
Q

CAUTION: When lowering the main landing gear via the AUX HYD SYSTEM, how long must pump action be continued?

A

Until three greens are achieved AND positive resistance is felt to ensure gear is down and locked

34
Q

What are the seven hydraulic subsystems

A
Landing gear
Flaps
Airbrakes
Nosewheel steering
Brakes
Stick pusher
Thrust reversers
35
Q

What five hydraulic annunciators are powered by the PE bus bar?

A
HYD 1 LO PRESS 
HYD 2 LO PRESS 
AUX HYD LOW LEVEL
EMER BRAKE LOW PRESSURE
HYD OVHT
36
Q

What hydraulic electric indicator(s) are powered by the PS2 bus bar?

A

Main SUPPLY pressure indicator
