PARKING.
When parking the airplane, insure that it is sufficiently protected against adverse weather conditions and
presents no danger to other aircraft. When parking the airplane for any length of time or overnight, it is
recommended that it be moored.
1. To park the airplane, head it into the wind, if possible.
2. Set the parking brake by pulling back the brake lever and depressing the knob attached to the left side of
the handle. Then release the handle. To release the parking brakes, pull back on the brake lever to
disengage the catch mechanism. Then allow the handle to swing forward.
— Note —
Care should be taken when setting brakes that are overheated or during cold weather
when accumulated moisture may freeze the brakes.
3. The aileron and stabilator controls may be secured with the pilot's seat belt.
MOORING.
The airplane is moored to insure its immovability, protection, and security under various weather conditions.
The following procedure gives the instruction for proper mooring of the airplane:
1. Head the airplane into the wind, if possible.
2. Block the wheels.
3. Lock the aileron and stabilator controls by looping the pilot's seat belt around wheel.
— CAUTION —
USE SQUARE OR BOWLINE KNOTS. DO NOT USE SLIP KNOTS.
4. Secure tie-down ropes to the wing tie-down rings and the tail skid at approximately 45 degree angles to
the ground. When using rope constructed of non-synthetic material, leave sufficient slack to avoid
damage to the airplane when the ropes contract due to moisture.
— Note —
Additional preparations for high winds include using tie-down ropes form the landing
gear forks, securing the rudder, and securing the props to prevent windmilling.
LOCKING AIRPLANE.
The right cabin door is provided with a key lock on the outside. The cabin door lock and nose baggage
compartment door lock use the same key.
