GENERAL.
This chapter provides instructions for conducting inspections. Repair or replacement instructions for those
components found to be unserviceable at inspection may be found in the chapters covering the applicable
aircraft system. When working on engines, ground the magneto primary circuit before performing any
operation.
TIME LIMITS.
INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS.
The required inspection procedures are listed in Periodic Inspections. The inspection procedure is broken
down into major groups which include Propeller, Engine, Cabin, Fuselage and Empennage, Wing, Landing
Gear, Engine Run-up Inspection and General. The first column in each group lists the inspection or procedure
to be performed. The second column is divided into four columns indicating the required inspection intervals
of 50 hours, 100 hours, 500 hours, and 1000 hours. Each inspection or operation is required at each of the
inspection intervals as indicated by a circle (O). If an item is not entirely accessible or must be removed, refer
to the applicable chapter of this manual for instructions on how to gain access to remove the item. When
performing inspections, use inspection forms P/N 230 818 furnished by the Piper Factory Service Department,
available through Piper Dealers or Distributors.
—NOTE—
In addition to inspection intervals required in Periodic
Inspections, preflight inspections must be performed.
PREFLIGHT CHECKS.
This check is for the pilot and/or mechanic and should become part of the airplane operational routine
and/or preflight check before each flight. Refer to Section IV of the Pilot’s Operating Manual for a listing of
items that must be checked.
OVERLIMITS INSPECTION.
If the airplane has been operated so that any of its components have exceeded their maximum operational
limits, check with the appropriate manufacturer.
