Take-Off
Increase engine speed steadily to full throttle and perform first part of climb
with this setting, then reduce power.
Observe coolant, oil temperature and pressure. The limits may not be exceeded.
Caution:
With increasing ambient temperatures the engine power and the lift up of the wings
will be reduced. This applies especially to situations in which the runway has been
heated up by sunlight.
6.6
Engine Shut-Down
Shut engine down by switching ignition off.
Caution:
After taxiing for an extended period or at high power, run the engine at
approx. 1300 rpm for 2 to 3 min.
Close fuel shutoff valve.
6.7
Inflight Shut-Down and Restarting
Set throttle to idle, let engine cool down and switch off ignition.
To avoid windmilling bring propeller into feathered position.
Starting engine is the same as on the ground.
It is not necessary to check emergency operation.
If
the engine is cold, perfom warm-up.
At low ambient temperatures and after prolonged soarings:
•
the engine oil may have cooled so much,
that the engine cannot be started anymore,
•
the capacity of the starting battery may be reduced
(see section 8.19)
Caution:
Make sure that you have sufficient altitude to restart the engine, especially
at low ambient temperatures and prolonged soaring.
