JACKING PROCEDURE
a. Lower
aircraft tail so that wing jack
can be placed under front spar just
outboard of
wing strut.
b. Raise aircraft tail and attach
tail stand to tie-down ring. BE SURE
that tail stand
weighs enough to keep tail down under all conditions and is strong enough to support
aircraft weight.
c. Raise jacks
evenly until desired
height is reached.
ICAUTIONi
When using the universal jack point. flexibility
of the gear strut will cause the main
wheel to slide in-
board as the wheel is raised, tilting the jack. The jack must be lowered for a second operation. Jacking
both main wheels
simultaneously
with universal jack
points is not
recommended.
NOTE
Corresponding
points
on
both upper
door sills
may be
used to
level the
aircraft laterally.
Reference
points
for
longitudinal
leveling
of the aircraft
are two
screws
on the
left
side of the tailcone. These
are indicated in the above illustration
