1. Clearview Window Crank
Push in to engage, then rotate handle to open or close clearview window.
2. Sun Visor
Visor is moved by grasping the slide block at top of shade and sliding visor
to the desired location. On some aircraft, visor is moved by turning and
holding locking pin handle down, grasping the bracket at top of shade and
sliding visor to the desired location. Releasing locking pin locks visor in
place.
Visor should be moved forward of the forward edge of clearview window and
then raised to the stowed position before opening the clearview window. This
allows the clearview window to be opened without damaging the visor.
NOTE: Do not move visor by holding lower edge of shade as damage
may result due to the leverage applied to the bracket and resultant
binding in the track. On some aircraft, the knurled nut or adjustable
tension screw immediately above the shade should be tightened only
to the degree necessary to hold shade in desired horizontal position.
3. Red Paint
Visible on inboard carriage roller link and end of track when window is
closed and in position for latching.
