PIPER CHEROKEE
SIX SERVICE
MANUAL
3-6. 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.
3-7. SPECIAL INSPECTIONS.
The
special inspections
given in the following
paragraphs,
supplement the scheduled inspections
as outlined in the Inspection Report,
Tables III-I, and
III-II
to include inspection
of items which
are required to
be examined at
intervals not
compatible
with airframe operating time
or airframe inspection intervals. Typical
of this
type are:
a.
Inspection is required
because of
special conditions
or incidents that
arise,and
because of these conditions
or incidents, an immediate
inspection would be required to
insure
further
safe flight.
b. Inspection
of airframe
or components
on a calendar basis.
This type of inspection
could often
be accomplished
during the
nearest scheduled
inspection.
c. Specific
definitive inspection on engines based
strictly upon engine operating time.
d. Those inspections not
completely covered in other sections
of this manual, but
outlined
in the Inspection Report and must
be explained in more detail to give a
clearer and
complete inspection.
3-8. PROGRAMMED MAINTENANCE.
The programmed maintenance
was designed to
permit the utilization
of the aircraft, by scheduling inspections
through the use of a planned
inspection schedule. Programmed
maintenance schedules are available
from Service Sales
Part No. 761 497 for PA-32-260 and 300; or Part No. 761 500 for PA-28R and PA-32R.
3-9. INSPECTION OF EXHAUST SYSTEM. (Refer to Figure 3-1 and 3-2.) A very
thorough inspection
of the entire exhaust system,
including heat exchange shroud, muffler,
muffler baffles, stacks and all exhaust connections must be accomplished at each 100 hour
inspection.
The possibility of exhaust system
failure increases with use. It is recommended
that the system be checked even more carefully as the number of hours increase; for
example an
inspection at the 700 hour period would
be more critical than one in the
100
hour period. The system should also be checked carefully before winter operation when the
cabin heat
will be in
use.
NOTE
It is recommended
that all PA-32
airplanes be fitted with
a
new muffler at or near 1000 hours of muffler operation.
