2-25. CLEANING.
2-26. CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES. The airplane should be washed with a mild soap and water.
Harsh abrasive or alkaline soaps or detergents used on painted or plastic surfaces could make scratches
or cause corrosion of metal surfaces. Cover areas where cleaning solution could cause damage. To wash
the airplane, the following procedure may be used:
a.
Flush away loose dirt with water.
b.
Apply cleaning solution with a rag, sponge or soft bristle brush.
c.
To remove stubborn oil and grease, use a cloth dampened with naphtha.
d.
Where exhaust stains exist, allow solution to remain on the surface longer.
e.
Any good automotive wax may be used to preserve the painted surfaces. Soft cleaning cloths or a
chamois should be used to prevent scratches when cleaning or polishing. A heavier coating of wax
on the leading surfaces will reduce the abrasion problems in these areas.
2-27. CLEANING ENGINE COMPARTMENT. Before cleaning the engine compartment, place a strip of
tape on the magneto vents to prevent any solvent from entering these units.
a.
Place a pan under the engine to catch waste.
b.
With the engine cowling removed, spray or brush the engine with solvent or a mixture of solvent
and degreaser, as desired. Brushing after spraying may be necessary to remove heavy grease and
dirt deposits.
CAUTION: DO NOT SPRAY SOLVENT INTO THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, AIR INTAKE,
AND ALTERNATE AIR INLETS.
c.
Allow the solvent to remain on the engine from five to 10 minutes, then rinse the engine clean with
additional solvent and allow to dry.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE ENGINE UNTIL EXCESS SOLVENT HAS EVAPORATED OR
OTHERWISE BEEN REMOVED.
d.
Remove the protective covers from the filter and magnetos.
e.
Lubricate controls, bearing surfaces, etc., per Lubrication Chart.
