09-20-00 TAXING
Before attempting to warmup or taxi the aircraft, ground
personnel should be checked by qualified pilots or other
responsible personnel. All taxiing should be done at slow
speed, and the controls should be positioned such that the
effects of gusty wind are minimized.
N O T I C E Taxiing over loose gravel or cinders should be done at
low engine speed to minimize damage to the airframe
surfaces due to stone damage.
The aircraft is taxiing as follows:
1 Start and warm engine up in accordance with the Pilot´s
Operating Handbook (PN: EA-0C701) Section 4.3 "Start-
ing Procedures".
N O T I C E Only operate with the propeller at minimum blade an-
gle (High RPM).
2 Taxi forward a few feet and check brake effectiveness.
3 While taxiing, make shallow turns to test the brakes and
the steerable tail wheel if installed.
4 Keep the Mixture in "FULL RICH" position.
