DA 42 AFM Airplane Description
Doc. No. 7.01.05-E Rev. 8 15-Dec-2017 Page 7 - 21
CAUTION
Do not apply a load of more than 90 daN (202 lbf) to the top
of the backrest. Otherwise damage of the adjustment
mechanism may result.
For adjustment lift the backrest lever or press the button and bend the backrest forward
or backward to the desired backrest angle. For fixing the position press down the backrest
lever or release the button.
If OÄM 42-259 is installed and in case of a malfunction of the release button the backrest
can be moved into the upright position by pulling the backrest (48 daN [108 lbf]) in flight
(FWD) direction.
If OÄM 42-067 is installed and in case of a defective adjustment mechanism the outboard
friction adjustment screw can be tightened with a 10 mm hexagon nut in clockwise direction
in order to fix the backrest in the upright position.
If possible, set the backrest lever to the ”locked” position. The mechanism must be repaired
at the next scheduled inspection.
