SECTION IV
MODEL 560 OPERATING INFORMATION
STARTING ENGINES (Continued)
g. Fuel, Oil, Generator and Hydraulic Annunciators - EXTINGUISHED (respective engine).
2. GND IDLE Switch - HIGH.
3. Other Engine - START.
a. Repeat procedures in item 1.
NOTE
The operating engine should be set to GND IDLE-HIGH for a cross generator start to
provide additional amperage. Load on operating generator should be 200 AMPS or
less prior to starting other engine.
4. GND IDLE Switch - NORM.
5. Engine Annunciators - EXTINGUISHED (except GND IDLE).
6. GPU - DISCONNECTED (if used).
7. Generator Switch - L GEN and R GEN/CHECK DC AMPS/VOLTS.
a. Left generator - OFF, right generator - GEN, check left generator voltage, check right gen-
erator AMPS.
b. Left generator - GEN, right generator - OFF, check left generator AMPS, check right gener-
ator voltage.
c. Left generator - GEN, right generator - GEN, check left generator AMPS, check right gen-
erator AMPS, check system voltage.
NOTE
When operating in visible moisture and ambient air temperature is between +10°C
and -30°C, turn pitot and static heat ON and engine LH and RH anti-ice systems ON.
If temperature is above -18°C, turn W/S BLEED AIR switch to LOW. If temperature is
-18°C or below, turn W/S BLEED AIR switch to HI. Check W/S BLEED AIR Knobs
MAX. For sustained ground operation, the engines should be operated for one out of
every four minutes at 65% N
2
or above.
CAUTION
LIMIT GROUND OPERATION OF PITOT STATIC HEAT TO TWO MINUTES ON
WITH TWO MINUTES OFF BETWEEN CYCLES TO PRECLUDE SYSTEM DAMAGE.
8. Battery Temperature - CHECK.
BEFORE TAXI
1. AVIONIC POWER Switch - ON.
NOTE
The avionics will require warmup after cold soak. Over 20 minutes may be required
at temperatures below -25°C (-13°F). Proper warmup is indicated by normal
illumination of RMU/PFD/MFD displays with pilot control of brightness and by audio
reception on all applicable avionics. In the absence of a suitable station, background
static is an acceptable demonstration of reception. Refer to Normal Procedures, Cold
Weather Operations.
