CESSNA SECTION 8
MODEL T182T NAV III AIRPLANE HANDLING, SERVICE
GFC 700 AFCS AND MAINTENANCE
U.S.
ALTERATIONS OR REPAIRS
It is essential that the FAA be contacted prior to any alterations on the
airplane to ensure that airworthiness of the airplane is not violated.
Alterations or repairs to the airplane must be accomplished by licensed
personnel, utilizing only FAA Approved components and FAA Approved
data, such as Cessna Service Bulletins.
GROUND HANDLING
TOWING
The airplane is most easily and safely maneuvered by hand with the
tow bar attached to the nosewheel (the tow bar is stowed on the side of
the baggage area). When towing with a vehicle, do not exceed the
nose gear turning angle of 29° either side of center, or damage to the
nose landing gear will result.
REMOVE ANY INSTALLED RUDDER LOCK BEFORE
TOWING.
If the airplane is towed or pushed over a rough surface during
hangaring, watch that the normal cushioning action of the nose strut
does not cause excessive vertical movement of the tail and the
resulting contact with low hangar doors or structure. A flat nose tire or
deflated strut will also increase tail height.
PARKING
When parking the airplane, head into the wind and set the parking
brake. Do not set the parking brake during cold weather when
accumulated moisture may freeze the brakes, or when the brakes are
overheated. Install the control wheel lock and chock the wheels. In
severe weather and high wind conditions, tie the airplane down as
outlined in the following paragraph.
