down fittings and secure each rope to ramp tie-down
4)
Install a surface control lock over the fin and rudder.

WINDSHIELD - WINDOWS
The plastic windshield and window should be cleaned with an aircraft windshield cleaner.
Apply the cleaner sparingly with soft cloths, and rub with moderate pressure until all dirt, scum
and bug stains are removed. Allow the cleaner to dry, then wipe it off with soft flannel cloths
Is a windshield cleaner is not available, the plastic can be cleaned with soft cloths moistened
with Stoddard solvent to remove oil and grease.
Followed by Carefully washing with mild detergent and plenty of water. Rinse thoroughly, then
dry with a clean moist chamois. Do not rub the plastic with dry cloth since this builds up an
electrostatic charge which attracts dust. waxing with good commercial wax will finish the
cleaning job. A thin even coat of wax, polished out by hand with clean soft flannel cloths, will fill
in minor scratches and help prevent further scratching
Do not use a canvas cover on the windshield unless freezing rain or sleet is anticipated since
the cover may scratch the plastic surface
Note
Never use gasoline, benzine, alchohol, acetone, carbon tetrachloride, fire extinguis-
her or anti-ice fluid, laquer, thinner or glass cleaner to clean the plastic. These
materials will attack the plastic and may cause it to craze
