(optional)
Wing jacks must be of adequate strength, must be short enough to slide under front spar of wing,
and must
extend far
enough to raise
wheels off ground.
Wing
jack is inserted in tube welded
to U-shaped adapter, which
may be fabricated locally,
or obtained
from
the Cessna Supply
Division.
Adapter, which
fits around wing-to-stub
wing
attachment
at front spar,
must
be strong
enough to
support aircraft.
Make sure tail stand is strong enough to support any weight placed on it. A telescoping, adjustable tail
stand is illustrated. However, any suitable tail stand may be used.
Jacking one wing is not recommended due to landing gear flexibility. However, if adequate precautions
against
slipping
are taken,
it is permissible.
Operate jacks evenly until desired height is reached.
CAUTION
When using universal
jack point (10004-98),
flexibility of the gear
strut will cause the
main wheels
to slide
inboard as
the wheel is
raised, tilting
the jack.
The jack
must be
lowered for a second
operation. Jacking
both wheels simultaneously
with universal
jack points
is not
recommended.
Universal
jack point
may be used
to raise
only one
main
wheel. DO NOT
USE brake casting
as a jack point.
Items (1).
(4). (5)
and (6) are
available
from the Cessna
Supply
Division.
