4.15 BEFORE TAXIING (4.5d)
CAUTION
Do not operate engine above 1200 rpm with
cabin doors open.
Warm up the engine at 1000 to 1200 rpm. Avoid prolonged idling at low
rpm, as this practice may result in fouled spark plugs. Turn the radio master
switch ON, and set environmental system as desired. Set the supplemental
heater as desired (refer to paragraph 4.47).
Takeoff may be made as soon as the ground check is completed and the
engine is warm.
Care should be taken not to run up the engine over a surface containing
loose stones, gravel, or any loose material that may cause damage to the
propeller blades.
4.17 TAXIING (4.5e)
Non-pilot personnel should not attempt to taxi the airplane until they
have been instructed in taxiing procedures and technique by a qualified
person authorized by the owner.
Determine that the propeller back blast and taxi areas are clear.
Release the parking brake by first depressing and holding the toe brake
pedals and then push in on the parking brake knob. Taxi with the propeller
control set to full INCREASE. Power should be applied slowly to start the
taxi roll. Taxi a few feet forward and apply the brakes to determine their
effectiveness. While taxiing, make slight turns to ascertain the effectiveness
of the steering and to check the flight instruments.
Observe wing clearances when taxiing near buildings or other stationary
objects. If possible, station an observer outside the airplane.
Avoid holes and ruts when taxiing over uneven ground.
Do not operate the engine at high rpm when taxiing over ground
containing loose stones, gravel, or any loose material that may cause damage
to the propeller blades.
