NOTE
• To ensure maximum fuel capacity and minimize
crossfeeding when refueling, always park the airplane in
a wings level, normal ground attitude. Refer to Figure 1-
1 for normal ground attitude dimensions.
• The fuel filler assembly is equipped with indicator tabs
for 3/4, 1/2 and 1/4 fuel quantities.
• Maximum full capacity is indicated when fuel reaches the
upper hole of the indicator tab. This fuel level allows for
proper thermal expansion. Filling the fuel tank above the
upper hole eliminates expansion space resulting in fuel
venting overboard through the fuel vent.
