It is duty of the owner/operator to inform himself about possible manual updates, Service Betins, Airworthiness

(in the case of certied equipment) or by Jihlavan Airplanes. It is the duty of the owner/operator to verify, that the
information is applicable to the individual piece of equipment installed to the aircraft, or to the aircraft S/N.
8.3. Ground handling
The SKYLEADER 600 is a lightweight aircraft, which is easy to handle on the ground. It is preferable to move the
aircraft with its special towing handle.
The aircraft may be ped carefy from the propeller (by grasping beside the spinner) or pushed from the upper surface
of centroplan carefy.
Do NOT press down on the horizontal tail unit in an attempt to lower the aircraft’s tail - this will cause severe
damage to the aircraft structure.
Do NOT push or p forwards/backwards on the horizontal tail unit - this will cause severe damage to the aircraft
structure.
Do NOT push the aircraft backwards from the spinner - pushing the spinner may damage it (Running the engine
with a damaged spinner can lead to spinner failure with risk of further damage and risk of hurting other persons.).
Do NOT push the aircraft backwards on the cowling. This is a lightweight moulding which is easily damaged.
