CESSNA SECTION 8
MODEL 182T NAV
Ill HANDLING, SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
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
arrgle of 29" either side of center, or
damage to the nose landing gear will result.
I
CAUTION
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.
