Cessna 182 1973 - Storage and Inspections

INTERIOR
CARE.
To
remove
dust
and
loose
dirt
from
the
upholstery
and
carpet,
clean
the
interior
regularly
with
a
vacuum
cleaner.
Blot
up
any
spilled
liquid
promptly
with
cleansing
tissue
or
rags.
Don't
pat
the
spot;
press
the
blotting
material
firmly
and
hold
it for
several
seconds.
Continue
blotting
until
no
more
liquid
is
taken
up.
Scrape
off
sticky
materials
with
a
dull
knife,
then
spot-clean
the
area,
Oily
spots
may
be
cleaned with
household
spot
removers,
used
spar~
ingly.
Before
using
any
solvent,
read
the
instructions
on
the
container
and
test
it
on
an
obscure
place
on
the
fabric
to
be
cleaned.
Never
satu-
rate
the
fabric
with
a
volatile
solvent;
it
may
damage
the
padding
and
backing
materials.
Soiled
upholstery
and
carpet
may
be
cleaned
with
a
foam-type
deter-
gent,
used
according
to
the
manufacturer's
instructions.
Keep
the
foam
as
dry as
possible
and
remove
it
with
a
vacuum
cleaner,
to
minimize
wetting
the
fabric.
If
your
airplane
is
equipped
with
leather
seating,
cleaning
of
the
seats
is
accomplished using
a
soft
cloth
or
sponge
dipped
in mild
soap
suds.
The
soap
suds,
used
sparingly,
will
remove
traces
of
dirt
and
grease.
The
soap
should
be
removed
with
a
clean
damp
cloth.
The
plastic
trim,
headliner,
instrument
panel
and control
knobs
need
only
be
wiped
off
with
a
damp
cloth.
Oil
and
grease
on
the
control
wheel
and
control
knobs
can
be removed
with
a
cloth
moistened
with
Stoddard
solvent.
Volatile
solvents,
such
as
mentioned
in
paragraphs
on
care
of
the
windshield,
must
never
be
used
since
they
soften and
craze
the
plastic.
FLYABLE
STORAGE.
Aircraft
placed
in
non-operational
storage
for
a
maximum
of 30
days
or
those
which
receive
only
intermittent
operational
use
for
the
first
25
hours
are
considered
in
flyable
storage
status.
Every
seventh
day
during
these
periods,
the
propeller
should
be
rotated
by
hand
through
five
revolu-
tions.
This
action
"limbers'
the oil
and
prevents
any
accumulation
of
cor-
rosion
on
engine
cylinder
walls.
IMPORTANT
For
maximum
safety,
check
that
the
ignition
switch
is
5-4
