transparent state by treating them with especially formulated
plexiglass cleaning agents.
12-20-02 Interior Cleaning
Prior to the first acrobatic flight of the day it is recom-
mended to clean the interior with a vacuum cleaner to
remove dust and loose dirt. If liquid is spilled on the cockpit
floor, blot it up promptly with cleansing tissue or rags.
Continue blotting until no more liquid is taken up.
N O T I C E Never use gasoline, benzine, alcohol, acetone, carbon
tetracloride, fire extinguisher fluid, anti-ice fluid, lac-
quer thinner, or glass cleaner to clean the canopy. These
materials will damange the canopy and may cause se-
vere crazing.
12-20-03 Engine Cleaning
Accumulation of dirt and oil within the engine compartment
creates a fire hazard and hampers inspection. All cleaning
operations have to be performed in well ventilated work
areas, and it is ensured that adequate fire-fighting and safety
equipment is avaiable.
The engine is cleaned as follows:
1 Allow the engine to cool before cleaning.
N O T I C E The magnetos, alternator, starter, the air inlets and the
engine cowling must be protected against cleaning
agents. The inside of engine cowling is covered with
water soluble fire protection paint (up to SN LT024).
3 Wash down engine compartment using a non-flammable
engine cleaning agent.
4 Thorougly rinse with clean, warm water to remove all traces
of cleaning agents.
