■
Flashing Lights
Visually check the optional flashing lights, to see
that the lights flash at approximately one flash
per second when the engine is running.
■
Air Filter
Start the engine from the ground control box.
The Filter Minder gauge (1) has a yellow
indicator in it (2). As the air filter clogs the yellow
indicator raises toward the red area (3) of the
sight glass.
If the indicator is in the red, after the engine has
been running for 30 seconds in Ground
Operation FAST IDLE, the air filter needs to be
replaced. (For further explanation of the Filter
Minder gauge, see “Gauges” chapter 4).
Leave the engine running for the next step.
■
Charging System
With the engine running at Ground Operation
IDLE, the needle in the ammeter gauge should
not be to the left of “0” (left of “0” is discharging).
Leave the engine running for the next step.
■
Ground Control Switches and Alarms
When you check turntable Swing at CCW (1)
the turntable will move directly toward you. Be
sure you have room to step backward.
Check each of the seven platform moving switches
(2) using Ground Operation (3) to see that they
cause the ATB 42/50 to move the way it should.
