CHEROKEE 180
SECTION VI
The
steering
arm stops should be
carefully
adjusted so that the
nose
wheel
reaches
its
full travel just after the rudder hits its
stops.
This
guarantees
that the rudder
will
be allowed to move through its full
travel.
BRAKE SERVICE
The brake system
is
filled
with
MIL-H-5606
(Petroleum
base)
hydraulic brake fluid. This
should be checked at
every 50
hour
inspection and
replenished when
necessary by filling
the
brake
reservoir
on the upper left front side
of
the firewall
to
the indicated level. If the
system as a whole
has
to be
refilled with
fluid it
should be
done
from
the
brake end of
the
system
by
filling
with fluid under
pressure. This
will eliminate
air from
the system as
it is
being filled.
No adjustment of
brake clearances is
necessary
on
the Cherokee
brakes. If
after extended service
the
brake blocks become worn
excessively, they are easily replaced with new segments.
TIRE INFLATION
For maximum service from
the
tires
on
the
Cherokee,
keep
the
tires
inflated
to the proper pressure of
24
pounds for all
three
wheels.
Interchange the tires on
the
main wheels if
necessary
to
produce
even
wear. All wheels and tires are balanced before
original
installation,
and
the
relationship
of the
tire,
tube,
and
wheel
should
be maintained if
at
all
possible.
Unbalanced
wheels can cause
extreme vibration on
take-off.
In
the installation of new components it may be
necessary to
rebalance the wheel
with the tire mounted.
