J. NOTES
1. Refer to Piper's Customer Service Information Aerofiche P/N 1753-755 for latest revision dates
to Piper Inspection Reports/Manuals and this maintenance manual. References to
Chapter/Section are to the appropriate Chapter/Section in this manual.
WARNING
: INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS (ICA) FOR ALL NON-
PIPER APPROVED STC INSTALLATIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS
MANUAL. WHEN A NON-PIPER APPROVED STC INSTALLATION IS
INCORPORATED ON THE AIRPLANE, THOSE PORTIONS OF THE AIRPLANE
AFFECTED BY THE INSTALLATION MUST BE INSPECTED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE ICA PUBLISHED BY THE OWNER OF THE STC. SINCE NON-PIPER
APPROVED STC INSTALLATIONS MAY CHANGE SYSTEMS INTERFACE,
OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS AND COMPONENT LOADS OR STRESSES
ON ADJACENT STRUCTURES, THE PIPER PROVIDED ICA MAY NOT BE
VALID FOR AIRPLANES SO MODIFIED.
2. Inspections or operations are to be performed as indicated by a “O” at the 50 or 100 hour
inspection interval. Inspections or operations (i.e. - component overhauls/replacements, etc.)
required outside the 100 hour cycle are listed as special inspections in section 5-30-00.
Inspections must be accomplished by persons authorized by the FAA.
(a) The 50 hour inspection accomplishes preventive maintenance, lubrication and servicing
as well as inspecting critical components.
(b) The 100 hour inspection is a complete inspection of the airplane, identical to an annual
inspection.
NO
TE: A log book entry should be made upon completion of any inspections.
3. Piper Service Bulletins are of special importance and Piper considers compliance mandatory.
In all cases, see Service Bulletin/Service Letter Index P/N 762-332 or Service Bulletin/Service
Letter Aerofiche Set P/N 1762-331 to verify latest revision.
4. Piper Service Letters are product improvements and service hints pertaining to servicing the
airplane and should be given careful attention.
5. Inspections given for the power plant are based on the engine manufacturer’s operator’s
manual ( Textron Lycoming Part No. 60297-10 ) for this airplane. Any changes issued to the
engine manufacturer’s operator’s manual shall supersede or supplement the inspections
outlined in this report.
6. Overhaul as required and at engine overhaul. In no case may Slick 6300 series magneto's
time-in-service exceed engine TBO.
7. Refer to latest revision of Textron Lycoming Service Bulletin No. 480.
8. Check cylinders for evidence of excessive heat indicated by burned paint on the cylinders. This
condition is indicative of internal damage to the cylinder and, if found, its cause must be
determined and corrected before the airplane is returned to service. Heavy discoloration and
appearance of seepage at the cylinder head and barrel attachment area is usually due to
emission of thread lubricant used during assembly of the barrel at the factory, or by slight gas
leakage which stops after the cylinder has been in service for a while. This condition is neither
harmful nor detrimental to engine performance and operation. If it can be proven that leakage
exceeds these conditions, the cylinder must be replaced.
