STATIC DISCHARGERS
(Continued)
Static dischargers lose their effectiveness with age, and therefore,
should be checked periodically (at least at every annual inspection) by
,
-
qualified avionics technicians, etc. If testing equipment is not available,
it is recommended that the wicks be replaced every two years,
,
.
especially if the airplane is operated frequently in IFR conditions. The
discharger wicks are designed to unscrew from their mounting bases to
facilitate replacement.
CABIN FEATURES
CABIN FIRE EXTINGUISHER
A portable fire extinguisher is installed on the cargo barrier in some
Cargo Versions and on the inside of the pilot's entry door in other Cargo
Versions and the Passenger Version. The extinguisher in both
airplanes is readily accessible in case of fire. The extinguisher should
be checked prior to each flight to ensure that
its
bottle pressure, as
indicated by the gage on the bottle, is within the green arc and the
operating lever lock pin is securely in place.
To operate the fire extinguisher:
1.
Loosen retaining clamp and remove extinguisher from bracket.
2.
Hold extinguisher upright, pull operating lever lock pin, and press
lever while directing the discharge at the base of the fire at the
near edge. Progress toward the back of the fire by moving the
nozzle rapidly with a side-to-side sweeping motion.
