Jacking
Since the empty weight of this aircraft is relatively low, two people can lift
the aircraft easily.
First of all prepare two suitable supports to support the aircraft.
It is possible to lift the aircraft by handling the following parts:
− By pushing the fuselage rear section down in the place of a bulkhead
the fuselage front section may be raised and then supported under the
firewall.
− By holding the fuselage rear section under a bulkhead the fuselage
rear may be raised and then supported under that bulkhead.
− To lift up a wing, push from underneath that wing only at the main spar
area. Do not lift up a wing by handling the wing tip.
Road transport
The aircraft may be transported after loading on a suitable car trailer. It is
necessary to dismantle the wings before road transport. The aircraft and
dismantled wings should be attached securely to protect these parts against
possible damage.
8.5 Cleaning and care
Use efficient cleaning detergents to clean the aircraft surface. Oil spots on
the aircraft surface (except the canopy!) may be cleaned with gasoline.
The canopy may only be cleaned by washing it with a sufficient quantity of
lukewarm water and an adequate quantity of detergents. Use either a soft,
clean cloth sponge or deerskin. Then use suitable polishers to clean the
canopy.
CAUTION
Never clean the canopy under “dry“conditions and never use gas or
chemical solvents!
Upholstery and covers may be removed from the cockpit, brushed and
eventually washed in lukewarm water with an adequate quantity of
detergents. Dry the upholstery thoroughly before insertion into the cockpit.
CAUTION
In the case of long term parking, cover the canopy to protect the cockpit
interior from direct sunshine.
