SECTION 9
PA-28-181, ARCHER III SUPPLEMENT 23
ISSUED: JULY 12, 1995 REPORT: VB-1611
REVISED: FEBRUARY 14, 2006 25 of 36, 9-177
SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES (continued)
Starting With External Power Source
CAUTION
It is possible to use the ship’s battery in parallel by turning
only the battery master switch ON. This will give longer
cranking capabilities, but will not increase the amperage.
Care should be exercised because if the ship’s battery has
been depleted, the external power supply can be reduced to
the level of the ship’s battery. This can be tested by turning
on the battery master switch momentarily while the starter
is engaged. If cranking speed increases, the ship’s battery
is at a higher level than the external power supply.
NOTE
For all normal operations using external power, the battery
master and alternator switches should be OFF.
Battery Master Switch....................................................................................OFF
Alternator Switch............................................................................................OFF
Standby Alternator Switch..............................................................................OFF
Left Magneto Switch........................................................................................ON
All Electrical Equipment................................................................................OFF
External Power Plug ..................................................................Insert in fuselage
Proceed with normal start checklist
Throttle ..............................................................................Lowest possible RPM
Right Magneto Switch ....................................................................................ON
External Power Plug ....................................................Disconnect from fuselage
Battery Master Switch......................................................................................ON
Alternator Switch ................................................................ON - check ammeter
Standby Alternator Switch ..............................................................................ON
Oil Pressure ..............................................................................................CHECK
