WARNING
When performing any inspection or maintenance that
requires turning on the master switch, installing a battery, or
pulling the propeller through by hand, treat the propeller as if
the ignition switch were ON. Do not stand nor allow anyone
else to stand, within the arc of the propeller, since a loose or
broken wire or a component malfunction could cause the

MODEL 210-SERIES.

1-3. DESCRIPTION. The Cessna Centurion,
Centurion II, Turbo Centurion, and Turbo
Centurion II (Model 210 Series) aircraft, described
in this manual, are single-engine, high-wing
monoplanes of all metal, semimonocoque construction. Wings are full cantilever, with sealed sections
forming fuel bays. The fully-retractable tricycle
landing gear consists of tublar spring-steel main
gear struts and a steerable nose gear with an airhydraulic fluid shock strut. The six place seating
arrangement is of conventional, forward facing type.
Powering the Model 210 Series is a Continental, horizontally-opposed, air-cooled, six-cylinder, fuelinjected engine driving an all-metal, constant-speed
propeller. A more desirable higher performance
aircraft, is offered in the turbocharged version of the
Model 210 Series.

1-4. AIRCRAFT SPECIFICATIONS. Leading particulars of these aircraft, with dimensions based on
gross weight, are given in figure 1-1. If these dimensions are used for constructing a hangar on computing
clearances, remember that such factors as nose gear
strut inflation, tire pressures, tire sizes, and load
distribution may result in some dimensions that are
considerably different from those listed.
1-5. STATIONS. A station diagram is shown in figure 1-2 to assist in locating equipment when a written

MATERIALAND TOOL CAUTIONS- GENERAL

A. Mercury

CAUTION
TEST
OTHER
AND
THERMOMETERS
EQUIPMENT CONTAINING MERCURY, MUST
NOT BE USED ON THE AIRPLANE.
Mercury, by the amalgamation process, can penetrate
any break in the finish, paint or sealing coating of a
metal structural element. An oxide coating on a dry
metallic surface will tend to inhibit an immediate
action while a bright, polished, shining or scratched
surface will hasten the process. Moisture will also
promote the amalgamation process. Soils, greases or
other inert contaminants, present on the metal
surfaces, will prevent the start of the action. The
corrosion and embrittlement which results from an
initial penetration, can be extremely rapid in
structural members under load. Once it has begun,
there is no known method of stopping it. Complete
destruction of the load carrying capacity of the metal
will result.
b. Maintenance Precautions
WARNING
DURING
MAINTENANCE,
REPAIR
AND
SERVICING OF THE AIRPLANE,
MANY
SUBSTANCES
AND
ENVIRONMENTS
ENCOUNTERED MAY CAUSE INJURY IF
PROPER
PRECAUTIONS
ARE
NOT
OBSERVED.
Carefully read and follow all instructions, and
especially adhere to all cautions and warnings
provided by the manufacturer of the product being
used. Use appropriate safety equipment as required
including goggles, face shields, breathing apparatus,
protective clothing and gloves. Fuel, engine oil,
solvents, volatile chemicals, adhesives, paints and
strong cleaning agents may cause injury when
contacting the skin or eyes, or when vapors are
breathed. When sanding composites or metals or
otherwise working in an area where dust particles
may be produced, the area should be ventilated and
the appropriate respirator must be used.

Solvents are hazardous to work with because of their
flammability, rate of evaporation and reaction to
oxidizers. Solvents can also be an irritant to the skin

and eyes.
A single spark, a smoldering cigarette, or even
atmospheric conditions can ignite solvent vapors. The
lower the flash point of the chemical, the more likely it
is to become flammable. Generally, flash points of less
than 100°F (37.8°C) are considered flammables.
Examples of solvent flash points are shown below:
SOLVENT

FLASH-POINT

Methyl Propyl Ketone

45°F

(7.2° C)

Touluene

39°F

(3.9° C)

Isopropyl Alcohol

53.6°F (12° C)

Acetone

1.4°

(-17°C)

The rate of evaporation is closely tied to flammability,
because normally the vapors must be present to ignite the
liquid. Vaporization also allows solvents, even those that
are not flammable, to get into the air and into the body's
blood stream through the lungs.
Solvents can also react explosively with oxidizers
(chemicals which release oxygen). A very violent and
uncontrollable reaction takes place which generates heat
rapidly. For this reason, it is very important for each
person to be aware of specific chemicals in use in the work
area, and to adhere to the labeling of containers. Chemical
manufacturers are required to label each container with a
diamond shaped symbol: red forflammable and yellow for
oxidizers.
Solvents can also damage the hands and skin. Solvents
dry out skin and dissolve the natural oils. The condition
can develop into an irritation, or if left untreated with
continuous exposure, it may progress to a dermatitis.
Damaged skin allows other contaminants to worsen the
condition, because the contaminants have easier access to
the deeper levels of the skin. In serious cases, blood
poisoning is also possible.
The best defense against skin irritation is not to be
exposed. If exposure is unavoidable, steps should betaken
to limit exposure times. Prolonged exposure to these
irritants can lead to long term liver damage.

c. General Usage Solvents
General usage solvents include the following:
Methyl Propyl Ketone
Toluene
Isopropyl Alcohol
Acetone
Methylene Chloride
1,1,1-Trichloroethane
Naptha
Trichloroethylene
These chemicals/solvents are generally colorless,
evaporate quicker than water, and tend to give off vapors
in higher quantities as their temperature increases. The
vapors are generally heavier than air, which causes them
to collect in low lying areas or push normal oxygen and
air out of a confined area. This situation can lead to

General Torquing Notes:
a. These requirements do not apply to threaded parts
used for adjustment, such as turnbuckles and rod
ends.
b. Torque values shown are for clean, nonlubricated
parts. Threads should be free of dust, metal filings,
etc. Lubricants, other than that on the nut as

shall be considered a maximum of two inches between
centers.

This wire will be used exclusively for safety wiring
magnesium parts.
NOTE
Surface treatments which obscure visual identification
of safety wire is prohibited.

Use single wire method for shear and seal wiring
application. Make sure the wire is installed so that it can
be easily broken when required in an emergency
situation. For securing emergency devices where it is
necessary to break the wire quickly, use copper only.

Inconel or monel, wire can be substituted for same
diameter and length of carbon steel or corrosion resistant
wire.

Safety wiring by the double twist method shall be done as
follows:

Wires are visually identifiable by their colors: natural for
inconel and monel, yellow for copper, and blue for
aluminum.

One end of the safety wire shall be inserted through
one set of safety wire holes in the bolt head. The other
end of the safety wire shall preferably be looped firmly
around the head to the next set of safety wire holes in
the same unit and inserted through this set of safety
wire holes. The "otherend" may go overthe head when
the clearances around the head are obstructed by
adjacent parts.

The strands, while taut, shall be twisted until the
twisted part is just short of the nearest safety wire hole
in the next unit. The twisted portion shall be within 1/8
inch of the holes in each unit. The actual number of
twists will depend upon the wire diameter, with
smaller diameters being able to have more twists than
larger diameters. The twisting shall keep the wire taut
without over stressing or allowing it to become nicked,
kinked or mutilated. Abrasions from commercially

Usage
A pigtail of 0.25 to 0.50 inch (3 to 5 twists) shall be
made at the end of the wiring. This pigtail shall be bent
back or under to prevent it from becoming a snag.
Safety wire shall be new upon each application.
When castellated nuts are to be secured with safety
wire, tighten the nut to the low side of the selected
torque range, unless otherwise specified, and if
necessary, continue tightening until a slot aligns with
the hole.

When safety wiring widely spaced multiple groups by
the double twist method, three units shall be the
maximum number in a series.
When safety wiring closely spaced multiple groups,
the number of units that can be safety wired by a
twenty four inch length of wire shall be the maximum
number in a series.
Widely spaced multiple groups shall mean those in
which the fastenings are from four to six inches apart.
Safety wiring shall not be used to secure fasteners or
fittings which are spaced more than six inches apart,
unless the points are provided on adjacent parts to
shorten the span of the safety wire to less than six
inches.
Tension
Parts shall be safety wired in such a manner that the
safety wire shall be put in tension when the part tends
to loosen. The safety wire should always be installed
and twisted so that the loop around the head stays
down and does not tend to come up over the bolt head
and leave a slack loop.
NOTE

~~~~~~NOTE
~Drilled

This does not necessarily apply to castellated nuts
when the slot is close to the top of the nut, the wire
will be more secure if it is made to pass along the
side ofthe stud.
Care shall be exercised when installing safety wire to
ensure that it is tight but not over stressed.

these instructions.
Hollow head bolts are safetied in the manner
prescribed for regular bolts.
Drain plugs and pet cocks may be safetied to a bolt, nut
or other part having a free lock hole in accordance with
the instructions described in this text.
External snap rings may be locked, if necessary, in
accordance with the general locking principles as
described and illustrated. Internal snap rings shall not
be safety wired.
When safety wiring is required on electrical connectors
which use threaded coupling rings, or on plugs which
employ screws or rings to fasten the individualparts of
the plug together, they shall be safety wired with 0.020
inch diameter wire in accordance with the safety
wiring principles as described and illustrated. It is
preferable to safety wire all electrical connectors
individually. Do not safety wire one connector to
another unless it is necessary to do so.
head bolts and screws need not be safety wired
if installed into self-locking nuts or installed with lock
washers. Castellated nuts with cotter pins or safety
wire are preferred on bolts or studs with drilled shanks
but self-locking nuts are permissible within the
limitations of MS33588.

Cables.of Control
Control cable assemblies are subject to a variety of
environmental conditions and forms of deterioration.
Some deterioration, such as wire or strand breakage, is
easy to recognize. Other deterioration, such as internal
corrosion or cable distortion, is harder to identify. The
following information will aid in detecting these cable
conditions.

Wire breakage criteria for cables in flap, aileron,
rudder, and elevator systems are as follows:
broken wires at random locations are
acceptable in primary and secondary control cables
when there are no more than six broken wires in
any given ten-inch cable length.
Corrosion

Broken Wire Examination (Referto Figure 1-9).
Examine cables for broken wires by passing a cloth
along length of cable. This will detect broken wires, if
cloth snags on cable. Critical areas for wire breakage
are those sections of cable which pass through
fairleads, across rub blocks, and around pulleys. If no
snags are found, then no further inspection is required.
If snags are found or broken wires are suspected, then
a more detailed inspection is necessary, which requires
that the cable be bent in a loop to confirm broken
wires. Loosen or remove cable to allow itto be bent in a
loop as shown. While rotating cable, inspect bent area
for broken wires.

remove and bend cable to properly inspect it for
internal strand corrosion, as this condition is usually
not evident on outer surface of cable. Replace cable if
internal corrosion is found. If a cable has been wiped
clean of its corrosion-preventive lubricant and metalbrightened, the cable shall be examined closely for
corrosion.

The aircraft battery serial number is recorded
in the aircraft equipment list. To assure accurate warranty records, the battery should
be reinstalled in the same aircraft from which
it was removed. If the battery is returned to
service in a different aircraft, appropriate
record changes must be made and notification
sent to the Cessna Claims Department.
f. Remove battery and store in a cool, dry place;
service battery periodically and charge as required.
NOTE
An engine treated in accordance with the following may be considered being protected
against normal atmospheric corrosion for a
period not to exceed 90 days.
g. Disconnect spark plug leads and remove upper
and lower spark plugs from each cylinder.
NOTE
The preservative oil must be Lubricating
Oil-Contact and Volatile, Corrosion Inhibited, MIL-L-46002, Grade 1, or equivalent.
h. Using a portable pressure sprayer, spray preservative oil through the upper spark plug hole of
each cylinder with the piston in a down position. Rotate crankshaft as each pair of cylinders is sprayed.
i. After completing step "h, " rotate crankshaft so
that no piston is at a top position.
j. Again, spray each cylinder without moving the
crankshaft, to thoroughly cover all interior surfaces
of the cylinder above the piston.
k. Install spark plugs and connect spark plug leads.

1. Apply preservative oil to the engin interior by
spraying approximately two ounces of the preservative oil through the oil filler tube.
m. Seal all engine openings exposed to the atmosphere, using suitable plugs or non-hygroscopic tape.
Attach a red streamer at each point that a plug or
tape is installed.
n. If the aircraft is to be stored outside, perform
the procedures outlined in paragraph 2-6. In addition, the pitot tube, static source vents, air vents,
openings in the engine cowling, and other similar
openings should have protective covers installed to
prevent entry of foreign material.
o. Attach a warning placard to the propeller to the
effect that the propeller shall not be moved while the
engine is in storage.
2-10. INSPECTION DURING STORAGE.
a. Inspect airframe for corrosion at least once a
month. Remove dust collections as frequently as
possible. Clean and wax aircraft as required.
b. Inspect the interior of at least one cylinder
through the spark plug hole for corrosion at least
once each month.
NOTE

normally pose a problem to owners and operators,
they do exist in certain areas of the world and consequently must be dealt with when encountered.

f. Remove oil sump drain plug and drain sump.
Install and safety drain plug and fill engine with oil.
NOTE

Therefore, to alleviate the possibility of fuel icing
occurring under these unusual conditions it is permissible to add isopropyl alcohol or ethyelene glycol
monomethyl ether (EGME) compound to the fuel supply. See Figure 2-3 for fuel additive mixing ratio.

The corrosion-preventive mixture will mix
with the engine lubrication oil, so flushing
the oil system is not necessary. Draining
the oil sump will remove enough of the

SERVICING.

CAUTION
Diethylene glycol monomethyl ether
(DiEGME) has NOT been approved by engine
manufacturer for use with propeller single
engine aircraft
The introduction of alcohol or EGME compound into
the fuel provides two distinct effects: 1) it absorbs
the dissolved water from the gasoline and 2) alcohol
has a freezing temperature depressant effect.
Alcohol, if used, is to be blended with the fuel in a
concentration of 1% by volume. Concentrations
greater than 1% are not recommended since they can
be detrimental to fuel tank materials.
The manner in which the alcohol is added to the fuel
is significant because alcohol is most effective when
it is completely dissolved in the fuel. To insure
proper mixing the following is recommended.

2-17. DESCRIPTION. Servicing requirements are
shown in figure 2-4. The following paragraphs
supplement this figure by adding details not
included in the figure.
2-18. FUEL BAYS. An area of each wing is sealed
to form an integral fuel bay. Recommended fuel
grades are listed in figure 2-4. Fuel bays should be
filled immediately after flight to lessen condensation
in bays and lines.
-~~~in bays and lines.
NOTE
Beginning with Serial 21064536, before refueling or when the aircraft is parked on a
slope, place the fuel selector handle in the
LEFT ON or RIGHT ON position, whichever
corresponds to the low wing. This will minimize crossfeeding from the fuller bay and .
reduce fuel seepage from the wing vents.
2-18A. USE OF FUEL ADDITIVES FOR COLD
WEATHER OPERATION. Strict adherence to recommended preflight draining instructions will eliminate
any free water accumulations from the tank sumps.
While small amounts of water may still remain in
solution in the gasoine, it will normally be consumed
and go unnoticed in the operation of the engine.
One exception co this can be encountered when operacing under the combined effect of: 1) use of certain
fuels, with 2) high humidity conditions on the ground
3; followed by flight at high altitude and low temperature. Under these unusual conditions small amounts
of water in solution can precipitate from the fuel
stream and freeze in sufficient quantities to induce
partial icing of the engine fuel system.

Revision 3

in

1. For best results the alcohol should be added
during the fueling operation by pouring the alcohol
directly on the fuel stream issuing from the fuel
nozzle.
2. An alternate method that may be used is to
premix the complete alcohol dosage with some fuel
a separate clean containerl dosage with some fuel
in a separate clean container (approximately 2-3
gallon capacity) and then transfer this mixture to the
^tank prior to the fuel operation.
Any high quality isopropyl alcohol may be used, such
as: Anti-icing fluid (MIL-F-5566) or Isopropyl alcohol (Federal Specification TT-I-735a).
Ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) compound
in compliance with MIL-1-27686 or Phillips PFA55MB, if used, must be carefully mixed with the fuel
in concentrations not to exceed 0.15o by volume.
ICAUTION1
Mixing of the EGiME compound with the fuel
is extremely important because concentration in excess of that recommended (0.15
percent by volume maximum) will result in
detrimental affects to the fuel tanks, such
as deterioration of protective primer and
sealants and damage to O-rings and seals
in the fuel system and engine components.
Use only blending equipment that is recommended by the manufacturer to obtain proper
proportioning.
Do not allow the concentrated EGIME compound to come in contact with the airplane
finish or fuel cell as damage can result.

When changing engine oil, remove and clean oil
pressure screen or install a new filter element on
aircraft equipped with an external oil filter. To
drain
as follows:
oil, proceed
a. Operate engine until oil temperature is at
normal operating temperature.
b. Remove oil drain plug from engine sump and
allow oil to drain into a container.
c. After engine oil has drained, install and safety
drain plug.
d. Remove and clean oil pressure screen or
change external oil filter element.

e.

Service engine with correct quantity and

viscosity of aviation grade engine oil.
NOTE
Refer to inspection charts for intervals
for changing engine oil and external filter
elements. Refer to figure 2-4 for correct
viscosities and capacities of aviation
grade engine oil.

2-21. ENGINE INDUCTION AIR FILTER. The
induction air filter keeps dust and dirt from
entering the induction system. The value of

maintaining the air filter in a good clean condition
can never be over-stressed. More engine wear is
caused through the use of a dirty or damaged air
filter than is generally believed. The frequency
with which the filter should be removed, inspected
and cleaned will be determined primarily by
aircraft operating conditions. A good general rule,
however. is to remove, inspect and clean the filter

at least every 50 hours of engine operating time,

and more frequently if warranted by operating
conditions. Under extremely dusty conditions, daily
servicing of the filter is recommended. To service
the induction filter, proceed as follows:
a. Remove
filter from
aircraft.

NOTE
Use care to prevent damage to filter
element when cleaning filter with
compressed air.
b. Clean filter by blowing with compressed air
(not over 100 psi) from direction opposite of normal
air flow. Arrows on filter case indicate direction of
normal air flow.
CAUTION
Do not use solvent or cleaning fluids to
wash filter.
Use only a water and
household detergent solution when
washing the filter.
c. After cleaning as outlined in step "b", the
filter may be washed, if necessary, in a solution of
warm water and a mild household detergent. A
cold water solution may be used.
NOTE
The filter assembly may be cleaned with
compressed air a maximum of 30 times or
it may be washed a maximum of 20

damaged. A damaged filter may have
sharp or broken edges in the filtering
panels which would allow unfiltered air
to enter the induction, system. Any filter
that appears doubtful, shall have a new
filter installed in its place.

d.

After washing, rinse filter with clear water

until rinse water draining from filter is clear.
Allow water to drain from filter and dry with
compressed air (not over 100 psi).
NOTE
The filtering panels of the filter may
become distorted when wet, but they will
return to their original shape when dry.

e. Be sure airbox is clean, and inspect filter. If
filter is damaged, a new filter should be installed.
f. Install filter at entrance to airbox with gasket
on aft face of filter frame and with flow arrows on
filter frame pointed in the correct direction.

2-22. VACUUM SYSTEM AIR FILTER. The vacuum
system central air filter keeps dust and dirt from
entering the vacuum operated instruments. Inspect
filter every 200 hours for damage. Replace filter

when damaged, every 500 hours of operation or whenever it becomes sufficiently clogged to cause suction
gage readings to drop below 4. 6 in Hg. Do not operate the vacuum system with the filter removed or a
vacuum line disconnected as particles of dust or other
foreign matter may enter the system and damage the
vacuum-operated instruments.

Excessive smoking will cause premature
filter clogging.

2-23. BATTERY. Battery servicing involves
adding distilled water to maintain the electrolyte
even with the horizontal baffle plate or split ring at
the bottom of the filler holes, checking cable
connections, and neutralizing and cleaning off any
spilled electrolyte or corrosion. Use bicarbonate of
soda (baking soda) and clean water to neutralize
electrolyte or corrosion. Follow with a thorough
flushing with clean water. Do not allow
bicarbonate of soda to enter battery. Brighten
cable and terminal connection with a wire brush,
then coat with petroleum jelly before connecting.
Check the battery every 50 hours (or at least every
30 days), oftener in hot weather. Add only distilled
water, not acid or "rejuvenators." to maintain
electrolyte level in the battery. Inspect the battery
box and clean and remove any evidence of
corrosion.

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
2-24. TIRES. Maintain tire pressure at the value
specified in Section 1. When checking pressure,
examine tire for wear, cuts, bruises and slippage.
NOTE
Recommended tire pressure should be maintained. Especially in cold weather, remember
that any drop in temperature of the air inside
a tire causes a corresponding drop in pressure.
2-25. NOSE GEAR STRUT. The nose gear strut
requires periodic checking to ascertain that the
strut is filled with hydraulic fluid and is inflated to
the correct air pressure. To fill the nose gear strut
with hydraulic fluid and air, proceed as follows:
a. Remove valve cap and release all air.
b. Remove valve housing assembly.
c. Compress strut completely (stops in contact
with outer barrel hub).
d. Oil leveL
1. Fluid used should comply with Specification
MIL-H-5606.
2. Fill strut to bottom of valve installation
hole.
3. Maintain oil level at bottom of valve installation hole.
e. Fully extend strut.
f. Replace valve housing assembly.
g. With strut fully extended and nose wheel clear
of ground, inflate strut to 90 PSI.
NOTE
The nose landing gear shock strut will
normally require only a minimum
amount of service. Maintain the strut
extension pressure as shown in figure 11. Lubricate landing gear as shown in
figure 2-5. Check the landing gear daily
for general cleanliness, security of
mounting, and for hydraulic fluid
leakage. Keep machined surfaces wiped
free of dirt and dust, using a clean lintwith hydraulic fluid
free clothSaturated
(MIL-H-5606)
or kerosene.
All surfaces
should be wiped free of excessive
hydraulic fluid.
2-26. NOSE GEAR SHIMMY DAMPENER. The
shimmy dampener should be serviced at least
every 100 hours. The dampener must be filled
completely with hydraulic fluid, free of entrapped
air with the compensating piston bottomed in the
rod. Check that piston is completely bottomed as
follows:
a. Remove shimmy dampener from the aircraft.
b. While holding the shimmy dampener in a
vertical position with the filler plug pointed
upward, loosen the filler plug.
c. Allow the spring to bottom out the floating
piston inside the shimmy dampener rod.
d. When the fluid stops flowing, insert a length of
stiff wire through the air bleed hole in the setscrew
at the end of the piston rod until it touches the
floating piston. The depth should be 3-13/16
inches.

NOTE
the wire insertion is less
than
3-13/16
inches. the floating piston is lodged in the
shaft. If the wire cannot be used to free
the piston, the rod assembly and piston
should be replaced.
Service the shimmy dampener as follows:
a. Remove filler plug from dampener.
b. Move piston completely to opposite end from
filler plug.
c
Fill dampener with clean hydraulic fluid
d. Reinstall filler plug and safety.
Wash a dampener in solvent and wipe dry with a
cloth
f. Reinstall shimmy dampener in aircraft.
NOTE
Keep shimmy dampener, especially the
exposed portions of the dampener piston
shaft, clean to prevent collection of dust
and grit which could cut the seals in the
dampener barrel. Keep machined
surfaces wiped free of dirt and dust, using
a clean lint-free cloth saturated with
hydraulic fluid (MIL-H-5606) or
kerosene. All surfaces should be wiped
free of excessive hydraulic fluid.
2-27. HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEMS. Check
brake master cylinders and refill with hydraulic
fluid as specified in the inspection charts. Bleed
the brake system of entrapped air whenever there
is a spongy response to the brake pedals. Refer to
Section 5 for filling and bleeding the brake system.
2-28. LANDING GEAR HYDRAULIC RETRACTION

2-29. HYDRAULIC FLUID SAMPLING AND CONTAMINATION CHECK. At the first 50 and first 100
hour inspection and thereafter at each 500 hour inspection or one year, whichever should occur first,
a sample of fluid should be taken and examined for
sediment and discoloration. This may be done as
follows:
a. Place aircraft master switch in OFF position
and replace aircraft on jacks as shown in figure 2-2.
Bleed pressure from system by moving landing gear
selector valve to gear UP position.
CAUTION
Do not turn master switch ON while hydraulic

If the drain fluid is clear and not appreciably

darker in color than new fluid, continue to use the
present fluid.
e. If the fluid color is doubtful, place a fluid sample in a nonmetallic container and insert a strip of
polished copper in the fluid.
f. Keep copper in the fluid for six hours at a temperature of 70*F or more. A slight darkening of the
copper is permissible, but there should be no pitting
or etching visible up to 20X magnification. If pitting
or etching is evident, drain fluid from power pack
reservoir. Fill power pack with MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid and bleed air from system.

CLEANING.

Refer to Section 15.

Refer to Section 15.

2-33. GENERAL DESCRIPTION. Keeping the aircraft clean is important. Besides maintaining the
trim appearance of the aircraft, cleaning lessens the
possibility of corrosion and makes inspection and
maintenance easier.
2-34. UPHOLSTERY AND INTERIOR. Cleaning
prolongs the life of upholstery fabrics and interior
trim. To clean the interior, proceed as follows:
a. Empty all the ashtrays.
b. Brush out or vacuum clean the upholstery and
carpeting to remove dirt.
c. Wipe leather and plastic surfaces with a
damp cloth.
d. Soiled upholstery fabrics and carpet may
be cleaned with a foam-type detergent, used
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
2-12

e. Oily spots and stains may be cleaned with household spot removers, used sparingly. Before using
any solvent, read the instructions on the container
and test it on an obscure place in the fabric to be
cleaned. Never saturate the fabric with a volatile
solvent; it may damage the packing and backing
material.
f. Scrape off sticky materials with a dull knife.
then spot clean the area.
2-35. PLASTIC TRIM. The instrument panel,
plastic trim and control knobs need only be wiped
off with a damp cloth. Oil and grease on the control wheel and control knobs can be removed with
a cloth moistened with Stoddard solvent.
2-36. WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS. These surfaces
should be cleaned carefully with plenty of fresh water
and a mild detergent, using the palm of the hand to
feel and dislodge any caked dirt or mud. A sponge,
soft cloth, or chamois may be used, but only as a
means of carrying water to the plastic. Rinse
thoroughly, then dry with a clean moist chamois.
Do not rub the plastic with a dry cloth as this builds
up an electrostatic charge which attracts dust. Oil
and grease may be removed by rubbing lightly with
a soft cloth moistened with Stoddard solvent
-CAUTION

Do not use gasoline, alcohol, benzene,
acetone, carbon tetrachloride, fire extinguisher fluid, de-icer fluid, lacquer
thinner or glass window cleaning spray.
These solvents will soften and craze the
plastic.
After washing, the plastic windshield and windows
should be cleaned with an aircraft windshield cleaner.
Apply the cleaner with soft cloths and rub with moderate pressure. Allow the cleaner to dry, then wipe
it off with soft flannel cloths. A thin, even coat of
wax, polished out by hand with soft flannel cloths,
will fill in minor scratches and help prevent further
scratching. Do not use a canvas cover on the windshield or windows unless freezing rain or sleet is
anticipated since the cover may scratch the plastic
surface.
2-37. ALUMINUM SURFACES. The aluminum surfaces require a minimum of care, but should never
be neglected. The aircraft maybe washed with nonalkaline grease solvents to remove oil and/or grease.
Household-type detergent soap powders are effective
cleaners, but should be used cautiously since some of
them are strongly alkaline. Many good aluminum
cleaners, polishes and waxes are available from commercial suppliers of aircraft products.
2-38. PAINTED SURFACES. The painted exterior
surfaces of your new Cessna have a durable, long
lasting finish. Approximately 10 days are required
for the paint to cure completely; in most cases. the
curing period will have been completed prior to delivery of the airplane. In the event that polishing or
buffing is required within the curing period, it is
recommended that the work be done by someone ex-

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
perienced in handling uncured paint. Any Cessna
Dealer can accomplish this work.

W
^
Generally, the painted surfaces can be kept bright by
washing with water and mild soap, followed by a rinse
with water and drying with cloths or a chamots.
Harsh or abrasive soaps or detergents which cause
corrosion or scratches should never be used. Remove
stubborn oil and grease with a cloth moistened with
Stoddard solvent.
To seal any minor surface chips or scratches and
protect against corrosion, the airplane should be
waxed regularly with a good automotive wax applied
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
If the airplane Is operated in a seacoast or other salt
water environment, it must be washed and waxed
more frequently to assure adequate protection. Special care should be taken to seal around rivet heads
and skin laps, which are the areas most susceptible
to corrosion. A heavier coating of wax on the leading
edges of the wings, and tail and on the cowl nose cap
and propeller spinner will help reduce the abrasion
encountered in these areas. Reapplication of wax will
generally be necessary after cleaning with soap solutions or after chemical de-icing operations.
2-39. ENGINE AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT. An
engine and accessories wash down should be accomplished during each 100-hour inspection to remove
might conceal component defects during inspection.
Also, periodic cleaning can be very effective in preventive maintenance.

Precautions should he taken when working with cleaning agents such as wearing of rubber gloves, an apron
or coveralls and a face shield or goggles. Use the
least toxic of available cleaning agents that will satisfactorily accomplish the work. These cleaning agents
include: (1) Stoddard Solvent (Specification P-D-680
type D), (2) A water alkaline detergent cleaner (MILC-25769J) mixed, 1 part cleaner, 2 to 3 parts water
and 8 to 12 parts Stoddard solvent or (3) A solvent
base emulsion cleaner (MIL-C-4361B) mixed 1 part
cleaner and 3 parts Stoddard solvent.

CAUTION
Do not use gasoline or other highly flammable
substances for washdown.
Perform all cleaning operations in well ventilated
work areas and ensure that adequate firefighting
and safety equipment is available. Do not smoke
or expose a flame, within 100 feet of the cleaning
area. Compressed air, used for cleaning agent,
application or drying, should be regulated to the
lowest practical pressure. Use of a stiff bristle
brush rather than a steel brush is recommended
if cleaning agents do not remove excess grease and
grime during spraying.
A recommended procedure for cleaning an engine and
accessories is as follows:

CAUTION
Do not attempt to wash an engine which is still
hot or running. Allow the engine to cool before
cleaning
a Remove engine cowling in accordance with Paragraph 12-3.
b. Carefully cover the coupling area between the
vacuum pump and the engine drive shaft so that no
cleaning solvent can reach the coupling or seal.
c. Cover the open end of the vacuum discharge tube.
d. Cover the vacuum relief valve filter, if installed
in the engine compartment.
e. Use fresh water for wash down when the engine is
contaminated with salt or corrosive chemicals. A
cleaning agent such as described previously may then
be used to remove oil and grime.
-_

CAUTION
Care should be exercised to not direct cleaning
agents or water streams at openings on the
starter, magnetos, alternator, vacuum pump
or turbocharger relief valve.
f. Thoroughly rinse with clean warm water to remove all traces of cleaning agents.

CAUTION

Cleaning agents should never be left on engine
components for an extended period of time.

Failure to remove them may cause damage
to components, such as neoprene seals and
silicone fire sleeves, and could cause additional
tioal corrosion.
corrosion.
g. Completely dry engine and accessories using
clean, dry compressed air.
h. Remove the cover over the coupling area.
i. Remove the cover from the vacuum discharge
tube.
j. Remove the cover from the vacuum relief valve
filter, if installed.
k. If desired, engine cowling may be washed with
the same cleaning agents, then rinsed thoroughly and
wiped dry. After cleaning engine, relubricate all
control arms and moving parts as required.
L Reinstall engine cowling.
WARNINGFor maximum safety, check that the magneto
switches are OFF, the throttle is closed, the
mixture control is in the idle cut-off position,
and the airplane is secured before rotating the
propeller by hand. Do not stand within the arc
of the propeller blades while turning the propeller.
m. Before starting engine rotate the propeller by
hand no less than four complete revolutions.

INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS.

As required by Federal Aviation Regulations, all civil aircraft of U.S. registry must undergo a
COMPLETE INSPECTION (ANNUAL) each twelve calendar months. In addition to the required
ANNUAL inspection, aircraft operated commercially (for hire) must also have a COMPLETE
AIRCRAFT INSPECTION every 100 hours of operation.
In lieu of the above requirements, an aircraft may be inspected in accordance with a
progressive inspection schedule, which allows the work load to be divided into smaller
operations that can be accomplished in shorter time periods.
Therefore, the Cessna Aircraft Company recommends PROGRESSIVE CARE for aircraft that
are being flown 200 hours or more per year, and-the 100 HOUR inspection for all other aircraft.
II

INSPECTION CHARTS.

The following charts show the recommended intervals at which items are to be inspected.
As shown in the charts, there are items to be checked each 50 hours, each 100 hours, each
200 hours, and also Special Inspection items which require servicing or inspection at
intervals other than 50, 100 or 200 hours.

III

a.

When conducting an inspection at 50 hours, all items marked under EACH 50 HOURS would be
inspected, serviced or otherwise accomplished as necessary to insure continuous
airworthiness.

b.

At each 100 hours, the 50 hour items would be accomplished in addition to the items
marked under EACH 100 HOURS as necessary to insure continuous airworthiness.

c.

An inspection conducted at 200 hour intervals would likewise include the 50 hour
items and 100 hour items in addition to those at EACH 200 HOURS.

d.

The numbers appearing in the SPECIAL INSPECTION ITEMS column refer to data listed
at the end of the inspection charts. These items should be checked at each inspection
interval to insure that applicable servicing and inspection requirements are accomplished
at the specified intervals.

e.

A COMPLETE AIRCRAFT INSPECTION includes all 50, 100 and 200 hour items plus those
Special Inspection Items which are due at the time of the inspection.

INSPECTION PROGRAM SELECTION.

AS A GUIDE FOR SELECTING THE INSPECTION PROGRAM THAT BEST
SUITS THE OPERATION OF THE AIRCRAFT, THE FOLLOWING IS
PROVIDED.
1.

IF THE AIRCRAFT IS FLOWN LESS THAN 200 HOURS ANNUALLY.
a. IF FLOWN FOR HIRE
An aircraft operating in this category must have a COMPLETE AIRCRAFT INSPECTION
each 100 hours and each 12 calendar months of operation. A COMPLETE AIRCRAFT
INSPECTION consists of all 50, 100, 200 and Special Inspection Items shown in the inspection charts as defined in paragraph II above.
b. IF NOT FLOWN FOR HIRE
An aircraft operating in this category must have a COMPLETE AIRCRAFT INSPECTION each
12 calendar months (ANNUAL). A COMPLETE AIRCRAFT INSPECTION consists of all 50,
100, 200 and Special Inspection Items shown in the inspection charts as defined in paragraph II
above. In addition, it is recommended that between annual inspections, all items be inspected
at the intervals specified in the inspection charts.

2-23

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
2.

IF THE AIRCRAFT IS FLOWN MORE THAN 200 HOURS ANNUALLY.
Whether flown for hire or not, it is recommended that aircraft operating in this category
be placed on the CESSNA PROGRESSIVE CARE PROGRAM. However, if not placed on
Progressive Care, the inspection requirements for aircraft in this category are the
same as those defined under paragraph III 1. (a) and (b).
Cessna Progressive Care may be utilized as a total concept program which insures that the
inspection intervals in the inspection charts are not exceeded. Manuals and forms which
are required for conducting Progressive Care inspections are available from Cessna Parts
Distribution (CPD 2) through Cessna Service Stations.

CLEANING.

(Refer to Section 2.)

3-5. WAXING. Waxing will fill in minor scratches
in clear plastic and help protect the surface from

Revision 3

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
further abrasion. Use a good grade of commercial
wax applied in a thin, even coat. Bring the wax to a
high polish by rubbing lightly with a clean, dry flannel cloth.
3-6. REPAIR. Replace extensively damaged transparent plastic rather than repair whenever possible,
since even a carefully patched part is not the equal
of a new section. either optically or structurally.
At the first sign of crack development, drill a small
end of the crack as shown in
hole at the extreme
figure 3-1. This serves to localize the cracks and
to prevent furtilzersplitting by distributing the strain
over a large area. If the cracks are small, stopping
them with drilledi holes will usually suffice until replacement or more permanent repair can be made.
The following repairs are permissible; however, they
are not to be located in the pilot's line of vision during landing or normal flight.
a. SURFACE PATCH. If a surface patch is to be
installed, trim away the damaged area and round all
corners. Cut a piece of plastic of sufficient size to
cover the damaged area and extend at least 3/4-inch
on each side of the crack or hole. Bevel the edges
as shown in figure 3-1. If the section to be repaired
is curved, shape the patch to the same contour by
heating it in an oil bath at a temperature of 248º to
302°F., or it may be heated on a hot plate until soft.
Boiling water should not be used for heating. Coat
the patch evenly with plastic solvent adhesive and
place immediately over the hole. Maintain a uniform
pressure of from 5 to 10 psi on the patch for a minimum of three hours. Allow the patch to dry 24 to 36
hours before sanding or polishing is attempted.
b. PLUG PATCH. In using inserted patches to
repair holes in plastic structures, trim the holes to
a perfect circle or oval and bevel the edges slightly.
Make the patch slightly thicker than the material
being repaired, and similarly bevel the edges. Install patches in accordance with procedure illustrated
in figure 3-1. Heat the plug until soft and press into
the hole without cement and allow to cool to make a
perfect fit. Remove the plug, coat the edges with
adhesive, and then reinsert in the hole. Maintain a
firm light pressure until the cement has set, then
sand or file the edges level with the surface; buff and
polish.
3-7. SCRATCHES. Scratches on clear plastic surfaces can be removed by hand-sanding operations
followed by buffing and polishing, if steps below are
followed carefully.
a. Wrap a piece of No. 320 (or finer) sandpaper or
abrasive cloth around a rubber pad or wood block.
Rub surface around the scratch with a circular motion, keeping abrasive constantly wet with clean
water to prevent scratching the surface further. Use
minimum pressure and cover an area large enough
to prevent the formation of "bull's-eyes" or other
optical distortions.
.MIL-D-5549;
CAUTION
Do not use a coarse grade of abrasive.
320 is of maximum coarseness.
b.

finer grade abrasives until the scratches disappear.
c. When the scratches have been removed, wash
area thoroughly with clean water to remove all the
gritty particles. The entire sanded area will be
clouded with minute scratches which must be removed to restore the transparency.
d. Apply fresh tallow or buffing compound to a
motor-driven buffing wheel. Hold wheel against
plastic surface. moving it constantly over the damaged area until cloudy appearance disappears. A
2000-foot-per-minute surface speed is recommended
to prevent overheating and distortion. (Example:
750 rpm polishing machine with a 10 inch buffing
bonnet.)
NOTE
Polishing can be accomplished by hand but
will require a considerabley longer period
of time to attain the same result as produced by a buffing wheel.
e. When buffing is finished, wash the area thoroughly and dry with a soft flannel cloth. Allow surface to cool and inspect the area to determine if full
transparency has been restored. Apply a thin coat
of hard wax and polish the surface lightly with a clean
flannel cloth.
NOTE
Rubbing the plastic surface with a dry cloth
will build up an electrostatic charge which
attracts dirt particles and may eventaully
cause scratching of surface. After wax has
hardened, dissipate this charge by rubbing
the surface with a slightly damp chamois.
This will also remove dust particles which
have collected while the wax is hardening.
f. Minute hairline scratches can often be removed
by rubbing with commercial automobile body cleaner
or fine-grade rubbing compound. Apply with a soft,
clean, dry cloth or imitation chamois.
3-8. CRACKS.
(See figure 3-1.)
a. When a crack appears in a panel, drill a hole at
the end of crack to prevent further spreading. The
hole should be approximately 1/8 inch in diameter,
depending on length of the crack and thickness of the
material.
b. Temporary repairs to flat surfaces can be accomplished by placing a thin strip of wood over each
side of the surface and inserting small bolts through
the wood and plastic. A cushion of sheet rubber or
aircraft fabric should be placed between the wood and
plastic on both sides.
c. A temporary repair can be made on a curved surface by placing fabric patches over the affected areas.
Secure the patches with aircraft dope, Specification No.
or lacquer, Specification No. MIL-L7178. Lacquer thinner, Specification No. Mil-T-6094
can also be used to secure the patch.

Through 21063640, The cabin door latch is a pushpull bolt type, utilizing a rotary clutch for positive
bolt engagement. As the door is closed, teeth on underside of bolt engages gear teeth on clutch. The
clutch gear rotates in one direction only, and holds
door until handle is moved to LOCK position, driving
bolt into slot. Beginning with 21063641, the rotary
clutch is replaced with a spring- loaded latch pin. As
the door is closed, (see figure 3-4A), push rod (14)
rides up on actuator (45), causing bolt (13) to disengage from catch (20), driving bolt into slot. As the
Door is opened, by pulling outboard on the handle (21),

ADJUSTMENT. (Thru 21063640.) (Refer to
figure 3-4.) Vertical adjustment of rotary clutch is
afforded by slotted holes which ensure sufficient gear-tobolt engagement and proper alignment. Adjustment for
bolt (2) extension is accomplished by loosening the four
bolt adjustment screws (26) sufficiently to move side bolt
guide (3) forward in the slotted holes to retract the bolt,
and aft to extend the bolt. Carefully close door after
adjustment to check bolt extension and clearance with
doorjamb and alignment with clutch assembly.
NOTE
Lubricate the door latch per Section 2. No
lubrication is recommended for the rotary
clutch.
3.29. LOCK. In addition to interior locks, a cylinder
and key type lock is installed on the left door. If the lock
is to be replaced, the new one may be modified to accept
the original key. This is desirable, as the same key is
used for the ignition switch and the cabin door lock.
After removing the old lock from door, proceed as follows:
a. Remove the lock cylinder from new housing.
b. Insert the original key into the new cylinder and file
off any protruding tumblers flush with cylinder. Without

4-3. DESCRIPTION. Each all-metal wing panel is
a full cantilever type, with a single main spar, two
fuel spars, formed ribs and stringers. The front
fuel spar also serves as an auxiliary spar and provides the forward attachment point for the wing. An
inboard section of the wing, forward of the main spar,
is sealed to form an integral fuel bay area. Stressed skin is riveted to the spars, ribs and stringers
to complete the structure. An all-metal, balanced
aileron, flap, and a detachable wing tip are part of
each wing assembly. A navigation light is mounted
in each wing tip.

It is sometimes necessary to open the landing gear doors while the aircraft is on the ground with
the engine stopped. Operate the doors with the landing gear handle in the 'DOWN" position.
Except on aircraft 21062274 thru 21062954, to open the doors, turn off the master switch and
operate the hand pump until the doors are open. To close the doors, turn the master switch on.
On aircraft 21062274 thru 21062954, the hand pump is required to open and close the doors.
Position of the master switch for gear door operation is easily remembered by the following
rule: OPEN CIRCUIT = OPEN DOORS; CLOSED CIRCUIT = CLOSED DOORS.

WARNING
Before working landing gear wheel
wells, PULL-OFF hydraulic pump circuit
breakers. Thru Serial 21062273, the pump
circuit breaker is locaed in the circuit
breaker panel, located immediately forward
of the pilot's control wheel. Beginning with
Serial 21062274, the pump circuit breaker
is located in the circuit breaker panel,
located immediately forward of the left
forward doorpost. The hydro-electric power
pack system is designed to pressurize the
landing gear DOOR CLOSE sytem to 1500
PSI at any time the master switch is turned
on. Injury might occur to someone working
in wheel well area if master switch is
turned on for any reason.
5-1. LANDING GEAR SYSTEM.
5-2. DESCRIPTION. (Refer to Hydraulic and Electric
System Schematic, figure 5-37.) A hydraulically-

operated, retractable landing gear is employed on the
aircraft. The hydrdaulic power system includes
equipment required to provide a flow of pressurized
hydraulic fluid to the landing gear system. The
Cessna-manufactured, self-contained, hydro-electric
pack is located in the pedestal, with the hand pump
remotely located between the two front seats on the
floorboard. The gear selector handle is located on the
lower lefthand switch panel. A circuit breaker,
protecting the pump, is located in the circuit breaker
panel, located immediately forward of the pilot's
control wheel thru Serial 21062273. Beginning with
Serial 21062274, the pump circuit breaker is in the
circuit breaker panel, located immediately forward of
the left-hand forward doorpost. It is necessary to pull
out on the gear selector handle prior to moving the
handle up or down. The handle is fitted with a small
wheel for easy identification and assisting in holding
the handle in rough air. The right side of the pedestal
cover is fitted with a quick-removable access door for
checking and servicing the hydraulic fluid level. The
selector handle controls the gear position through an
electrical switch thru Serial 21062273 and by means of
a hydraulic shuttle valve on aircraft beginning with
Serial 21062274.

NOTE
Refer to the hydraulic schematic
diagrams at the end of this section to
trace the flow of hydraulic fluid as
outlined in the following paragraph.

5-3A. SYSTEM OPERATION. ( Beginning with Serial
21062274 )
NOTE
Refer to the hydraulic schematic diagrams
at the end of this section to trace the flow
of hydraulic fluid as outlined in the following paragraph.

When the aircraft master switch is closed, the
hydraulic power pack is ready to operate. When
the gear-up position is selected with the selector
switch, the gear valve solenoid connects the gearup line to the system pressure, and the gear-down
line to return. At the same time, the electric motor
that powers the hydraulic pump is turned on. The
hydraulic pressure is passed through a filter, and
is then divided between the gear valve and door
valve. Before hydraulic pressure can reach the
gear valve, a priority valve must open. The
priority valve can open only under two conditions:
1. There can be no pressure in the door close
line, because door close pressure is applied to a
piston to hold priority valve closed.
2. System pressure must build up to 750 psig
before the valve can open.
Pressure therefore, must go to the door-open line.
Pressure in the door-close line is prevented from
returning by the door-close lock check valve. and
the valve is opened by a piston that senses dooropen pressure. When the presure reaches 400 psig,
the door-close lock check valve opens and the
doors on the aircraft open. At 750 psig. the
priority valve opens and the landing gear begins to
retract. As soon as the landing gear is locked in
the UP position. the landing gear up limit switches
sequence the door solenoid valve to the door close
position. When pressure in the door-close line
reaches 1500 psig. the pressure switch shuts off the
motor and the GEAR-DOWN cycle is similar to the
cycle. except

Under these conditions,

the first operation of the system after the selector
handle is moved is to completely open the doors, and
after which, the doors will close again.

There is no

the aircraft, since the gear does not receive hydraulic pressure unless the doors are in the fully-opened
position.

TROUBLE SHOOTING.

Just because this chart lists a probable cause, proper checkout procedures cannot be deleted and the replacement of a part is not necessarily the proper solution to the problem. The mechanic should always look for obvious problems such as loose or broken parts, external leaks, broken wiring, etc. To find the exact cause of a
problem, a mechanic should use a hand pump, pressure gage and a voltmeter to isolate each item in the system.
Hydraulic fluid will foam if air is pumped into system, causing fluid to be blown overboard thru pack vent line.
The problems listed are all with the systems controls in their normal operating position: Master switch ON,
hydraulic pump breaker IN and landing gear breaker IN. During landing gear system servicing, a power
supply capable of maintaining 27. 5 volts throughout the gear cycle must be used to augment the ship's battery.

CAUTION
Prior to using Hydro-Test unit with power pack, remove and dry off
filler plug and dipstick. Adjust cap tension so that no movement
of cap is apparent. Failure to accomplish these procedures could
result in filler cap coming loose from power pack.

NOTE

5-74A. BRAKE LININGS. (1977 THRU 1983
MODELS.) The pads are equipped with asbestos based
linings. When replacement is required, the new pads
must be properly conditioned (broken in) in order to
provide optimum service life. Conditioning will
generate sufficient heat to cure the resins in the
material, but will not cause the material to carburize
due to excessive heat. Condition the brakes by
performing a series of at least six light braking
applications from 25 to 40 MPH to a complete stop.
Allow the brake discs to partially cool after each stop.

Normal brake usage should generate enough
heat to maintain the glaze throughout the
life of the lining. Light brake usage can
cause the glaze to wear off, resulting in reduced brake performance. Visual inspection
of brake disc will indicate brake lining condition. A smooth, non-grooved surface indicates linings are properly glazed. Rough,
grooved linings must be reglazed. In such
cases, the lining may be conditioned again
following the instructions set forth above.

5-74B. NON-ASBESTOS ORGANIC OR METALLIC
BRAKE LININGS. Beginning with 1984 models, the

brake lining should be installed when the existing
lining has worn to a thickness of 3/32-inch. A
3/32-inch strip of material held adjacent to each
lining can be used to determine amount of wear.
The shank end of a drill bit of the correct size can
also be used to determine wear of brake linings.

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL

NOTE
If it is planned to use the aircraft power system during rigging
procedures, outlined in the following paragraphs, the following
steps should be considered.

IMPORTANT POINTS CONCERNING
ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC SYSTEM INTERRELATIONSHIP
1. The electrical system is a 24-28 volt system (24 volt battery and 28 volt alternator).
The alternator is regulated to 27.7 volts, so bus voltage during engine operation will
be 27. 5 + 0.5 volts.
2.

The electro-hydraulic power pack motor requires a nominal 20 amps at 27.5 volts
during gear operation with starting current peaking out at 30 amps.
If the motor is operated in the shop on the ship's battery (engine not running), then
system voltage is only 22 to 24 volts during first and second gear cycles. It may be
even less if the ship's battery is old or partially discharged.
During landing gear system servicing, a power supply capable of maintaining 27.5
volts throughout the gear cycle must be used to augment the ship's battery.

3.

The power pack includes an electrically-driven pump and two electric solenoid
shuttle valves. These valves are normally energized during flight (gear retracted,
doors closed). The door valve is de-energized during the doors open and gear
cycling action. The door valve is re-energized at the end of the gearextensionor retraction cycle, causing the doors to close.
The pump motor is putting forth its maximum effort at about the same time the
door valve is energized. If the battery-alternator combination is not maintaining
27.5 volts, the gear valve may not shuttle. The doors remain open and the pump
continues to run.
The typical door solenoid will operate at 21.0 to 21.5 volts when hot. In a service
shop, when cycling the gear using a limited capability power source, the voltage
required to energize the door solenoid may not be developed.

setscrew (15) to stop hook 0.06, + 0.03, -0.20-inch
overcenter, as shown in figure 5-34.
4. Adjust downlock hook to clear inboard side
of gear pivot ear to a minimum of 0.06 inch.
NOTE
A spacer (P/N 1241614-1) is installed on each
side of the downlock arm assembly. Spacer
may be relocated to the inboard or outboard
side of the downlock arm assembly to obtain
the 0.06 inch clearance between hook assembly and the inboard of gear pivot ear. After
adjustment, both spacers MIGHT end up on
either the inboard or outside of downlock arm
assembly.
b. A new downlock actuator assembly is received
with a preassembled length of 12.45 inches, and the
three hydraulic ports in the same plane. Install actuator assembly, attaching it to fuselage structure
and downlock hook arm assembly.
c. With landing gear free, hydraulic pressure off, and
downlock system in position shown in figure 5-34, swing
gear into DOWN position and adjust adjustment screw
(5) as follows:
NOTE
To relieve hydraulic pressure, pull hydraulic
pump circuit breaker off, and move gear

times.

adjustment screw. If hook (4) is under maximum
overcenter tolerance, green area of gage will contact
spacer on gear pivot, while red area will not make contact
with 0.050-inch diameter shoulder, as shown in figure
5-34. When hook (4) is on maximum overcenter
tolerance, both green and red areas will make contact. If
red area makes contact and green area does not, the hook I
setscrew (15) should be adjusted INWARD to bring
overcenter dimension to within tolerance.
3. Install 0.040-inch downlock gage (SE960) on
inboard side of hook (4) as shown in figure 5-34. If hook
(4) is over minimum overcenter tolerance, green area of
gage will contact shoulder, while red area will not make
contact with spacer.
4. When hook (4) is on minimum overcenter
|
tolerance, both green and red areas will make contact.
5. If overcenter tolerance is less than 0.040-inch,
the red area will make contact, while the green area will
not. If this condition exists, the next step is to determine
if the hook adjustment screw (5) is making contact with
the setscrew (15). This is accomplished by lifting the
landing gear spring upward off the hook (4) and checking
for possible rotation of the hook (4), by hand, with
hydraulic pressure off.
6. If a slight rotation is possible, hook setscrew
(15) is not contacting adjustment screw (5). If contact is
not being made, downlock actuator (25) will have to be
readjusted by backing off actuator's rod end one-half turn
at a time (one-and-one-half turn maximum adjustment)
until hook (4) is 0.040-inch or more overcenter and
contact is being made between setscrew (15) and
adjustment screw (4). If contact is being made, the hook
setscrew (15) should be adjusted outward to increase
overcenterness within tolerance.

1. If downlock locks, turn adjustment screw (5)
one-quarter turn OUT at a time until lock will not lock;
then turn in one-quarter turn and secure pin.
2. If downlock does not lock, turn adjustment
screw (5) one-quarter turn IN at a time until lock will
lock, and secure pin.
d. Readjust hook setscrew (15) to stop hook (4) 0.06,
+ 0.03, -0.02-inch overcenter as shown in figure 5-34.
e. When checking overcenter measurement of
downlock arm assembly, landing gear should be as
shown in figure 5-34, with nut, washer and spacer
removed, which retainl downlock arm assembly.
Use downlock overcenter gages (P/N SE960) to
determine if downlock hook assembly is still within
tolerance as shown on sheet 2 of figure 5-34. Use
gages as follows:

f. Now that hook adjustment screw (5) has been
adjusted, and hook setscrew (15) has been set to stop hook
at 0.06, + 0.03, -0.02-inch overcenter, check downlock
actuator rod end adjustment as follows:
1. Connect all hydraulic lines, fill system with
MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid and purge system of air
by cycling gear through several cycles.

NOTE

NOTE

NOTE
For correct rigging, hook setscrew (15) must
make contact with adjustment screw (5) and
green areas of both gages must contact as
shown in figure 5-34 for overcenterness to be
within tolerance.

Gages (P/N SE960) are available from Cessna
Parts Distribution (CPD 2) through Cessna
Service Stations.

Check fluid level in power-pack reservior
frequently during purging and rigging
procedures.

1. Remove nut, washer, and spacer which retain
arm assembly (7) to support assembly (3).
2. Install 0.090 downlock gage (SE960) on inboard
side of hook (4) as shown in figure 5-34. Upper portion of
gage should rest against head of pin attaching

LANDING GEAR SYSTEM.

5A-2. DESCRIPTION. Retraction and extension of
the landing gear is accomplished by a hydraulicallypowered system, integrated with electrical circuits
which help control and indicate gear position. Retraction and extension of the landing gear incorporates a nose gear actuator and two main gear actuators. The main gear actuators control the main
gear struts through a sector gear arrangement. The
nose gear doors are mechanically-operated. The
doors are closed with the gear retracted and are open
with the landing gear extended. The main gears have
no doors. Hydraulic fluid is supplied to the landing
gear actuating cylinders by an electrically-powered
power pack assembly, located inside the center console. The hydraulic reservoir is an integral part of
the power pack assembly. Gear selection is accomplished manually by moving a gear selector handle,
located immediately left of center, in the switch
panel. It is necessary to pull out on the gear selector
to move the handle up or down. For emergency ex-

tension of the gear, the selector handle must be in the

DOWN position before the hand pump will energize
the system. A pressure switch is mounted on the
pump body. This switch opens the electrical circuit
to the pump solenoid when pressure in the system increases to approximately 1500 psi. The pressure
switch will continue to hold the electrical circuit open
until pressure in the system drops to approximately
1000 psi. This will occur whether the gear selector
handle is in either the UP or DOWN position. During
a normal cycle, landing gear extended and locked can
be detected by illumination of the gear DOWN indicator (green) light. Indication of gear retracted is
provided by illumination of the UP indicator (amber)
light. The nose gear squat switch, activated by the
nose gear, electrically averts inadvertent retraction
whenever the nose gear strut is compressed by the
weight of the aircraft. Beginning with 1983 models,
the up indicator (amber) light is replaced with a GEAR
UNSAFE indicator (red) light. The GEAR UNSAFE
(red) light is on anytime the gear is in transit (retract or extend), or whenever system pressure drops
below 1000 PSI with the safety (squat) switch closed.
NOTE
It is possible to have the red and green lights
on momentarily at the same time after the
completion of the extend cycle, or when rotating during takeoff. However, if both stay
on after the completion of the extend cycle,
or if the red light stays on longer than 5 to
7 seconds during the retract cycle, a malfunction has occurred.

TROUBLE SHOOTING.

Just because this chart lists a probable cause, proper checkout procedures cannot be deleted and the replacement of a part is not necessarily the proper solution to the problem. The mechanic should always look for obvious problems such as loose or broken parts, external leaks, broken wiring, etc. To find the exact cause of a
problem, a mechanic should use a hand pump, pressure gage and a voltmeter to isolate each item in the system.
nydraulic fluid william if' air is pumped into system, causing fluid to be blown overboard thru pack vent line.
The problems listed are all with the systems controls in their normal operating position: Master switch ON,
hydraulic pump breaker IN and landing gear breaker IN. During landing gear system servicing, a power
supply capable of maintaining 27. 5 volts throughout the gear cycle must be used to augment the ship's battery.

CAUTION
Prior to using Hydro-Test unit with power pack, remove and dry off
filler plug and dipstick. Adjust cap tension so that no movement
of cap is apparent. Failure to accomplish these procedures could
result in filler cap coming loose from power pack.

external leak anywhere in the system.
5A-8

Revision 3

NOTE
When any line is disconnected, be prepared
for fluid leakage.
g. Disconnect the return line from the gear selector. If
fluid comes from the selector, the internal leak is in the
system.
h. If no leak-by is found, it can be assumed there is an
internal leak in the power pack. If leak is found, proceed
to step "j." Reconnect the return line.
i. Power pack internal leakage can only be attributed
to a bad thermal relief valve, check valve, or check valve
O-ring. The only way to isolate part that is leaking is to
systematically replace the check valve O-ring, check
valve, and then thermal relief valve. Repeat leak test
after replacement of each part to ensure leak correction.

MODEL 210 &T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
j. Remove gear DOWN line from the selector. If
fluid comes from the line, one or more of the gear
actuators is leaking. To locate the leaking actuator,
disconnect the return line from each actuator. the
leaking actuator will have fluid draining from the
actuator port. Following the appropriate paragraphs
in this section remove, overhaul and reinstall the
actuator.
k. Reconnect gear down line to the selector,
1. Recheck all lines that were disconnected for
security.
m. Lower the landing gear. Following the procedures in step "b" relieve the system pressure.
n. Remove the pressure gage from the service tee.
o. In accordance with the procedures in Section 2
of this manual replenish the power pack reservoir
with MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid and bleed the system.
p. Remove aircraft from jacks.

5A-11. PRIMARY AND THERMAL RELIEF VALVE
ASSEMBLIES. (REFER TO FIGURE 5A-3.) The
primary relief valve (5), located between the check valve
(9) and pump (6), serves to limit that amount of pressure
which can be generated by the pump (6). The thermal
relief valve (23), located on the system side of the check
valve (9), serves to limit the system pressure. System
pressure can increase due to thermal expansion. Both
valves are identical except for differing pressure relief
settings (refer to figure 5A-4).
5A-11A. BENCHCHECK OFPRIMARYAND
THERMAL RELIEF VALVES. (Refer to figure 5A-4.)
NOTE
The hydraulic power pack primary relief
valve, thermal relief valve, and pressure
switch can be operationally checked on the
aircraft without power pack removal from the
aircraft or disassembly. Refer to paragraph
5A-5A for specific instructions.
If on-aircraft pressure checking of the power pack
reveals out-of-tolerance relief valve opening, it may be
necessary to determine if relief valve disassembly or
adjustment is necessary. Once removed from power pack,
individual relief valves can be bench checked.
NOTE
Adequate precautions should be taken to
recover hydraulic fluid which will be expelled
from the primary relief valve while under
pressure.

Primary Relief Valve.

0.7 gallons per minute connected to a hydraulic
reservoir, a pressure gage with 2500 psi capacity, and
a hose with appropriate fittings, connect hydraulic
pump to adapter (2) of the primary relief valve.
(2) Apply pressure slowly to ensure that relief valve
assembly opens at correct pressure reading. Primary
relief valve should open at 1800 PSI, + 0 or -50 PSL
Refer to paragraph 5A-15 for adjustment instructions.
b. Thermal Relief Valve.
(1) Using a hand pump connected to a hydraulic
reservoir, a pressure gage with 2500 PSI capacity, and
a hose with appropriate fittings, connect hand pump to
adapter (2) of the thermal relief valve.

5A-38. DESCRIPTION. The tubular main gear
struts rotate aft and inboard to stow the main wheels
beneath the baggage compartment. The main gear
utilizes hydraulic pressure for positive uplock and
mechanical downlocks. Main gear uplock pressure
is maintained automatically by the pump assembly.
Rotation of the gear to extend or retract the struts
is achieved through pivot assemblies which in turn
are bolted through a splined shaft, to the hydraulic
main gear rotary actuators.

with a preassembled length of 12.45-inches, and the three
hydraulic ports in the same plane. Install actuator
assembly (20), attaching it to fuselage structure and arm
assembly (5).
d. With landing gear free, hydraulic pressure off,
and downlock systems in position shown on sheet 1,
swing landing gear into the DOWN position and adjust
adjusting screw as follows:
NOTE
To relieve hydraulic pressure, pull hydraulic
pump circuit breaker off, and move gear selector handle up and down two or three times.
1. If downlock locks, turn adjusting screw 1/4
turn out at a time until lock will not lock; then turn
back in 1/4 turn and secure pin.
2. If downlock does not lock, turn adjusting
screw 1/4 turn in at a time until lock will lock, then
secure pin.
| e. Readjust setscrew (8) to stop hook assembly .040 to
.090-inch overcenter. When checking overcenter
measurement of arm assembly (5), landing gear should
be as shown on sheet 2, with nut, washer, and spacer
removed, which retains the arm assembly (5). Use
downlock overcenter gages (P/N SE960) to determine if
hook (7) is still within tolerances shown on sheet 2. Use
gages as follows:

6. If a slight rotation is possible, setscrew (8) is not
contacting downlock adjustment screw (6). If contact is
not being made, downlock actuator will have to be
readjusted by backing offactuator's rod end (19) one-half |
turn at a time (one-and-one-half turns maximum
adjustment) until hook assembly is 0.040-inch or more
overcenter, and contact is being made between setscrew
(8) and downlock adjustment screw. If contact is being
made, setscrew (8) should be adjusted outward to increase
overcenter measurement to within tolerance.
NOTE
For correct rigging, downlock hook setscrew
(8) must make contact with downlock
adjustment screw (6) and green areas of both
gages must contact as shown on sheet 2.
f. Now that downlock adjustment screw (6) has been
I
adjusted following procedures outlined in step "e.", check,
downlock actuator rod end (19) adjustment as follows:
1. Connect all hydraulic lines, fill system with
MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid and purge system of air by
cycling gear through several cycles.
NOTE
Check fluid level in power pack reservoir
frequently during purging and rigging procedures.

NOTE

Overcenter gages (P/N SE960) are available
from Cessna Parts Distribution (CPD 2)
through Cessna Service Stations.
1. Remove nut, washer and spacer which retain
arm assembly to support assembly.
2. Install 0. 090-inch downlock gage (SE960) on
inboard side of downlock hook as shown on sheet 2.
Upper portion of gage should rest against head of pin
attaching adjusting screw. If downlock hook is under
maximum overcenter tolerance, green area of gage
will contact spacer on gear pivot, while red area will
not make contact with 0. 50-inch diameter shoulder,
as shown in the figure. When downlock hook is in
maximum overcenter tolerance, both green and red
areas will make contact. If red area makes contact
and green area does not, the downlock hook setscrew
should be adjusted INWARD to bring overcenter dinension within tolerance.
3. Install 0. 040-inch downlock gage (SE960) on
inboard side of downlock hook as shown on sheet 2.
If downlock hook is over minimum overcenter tolerance, green area of gage will contact shoulder, while
red area will not make contact with spacer.
4. When downlock hook is in minimum overcenter tolerance both red and green areas will
make contact
1
ipivot
5. If overcenter tolerance is less than 0.040-inch,
the red area will make contact, while the green area will
not. If this condition exists, the next step is to determine
if the downlock adjustment screw (6) is making contact
with the setscrew (8). This is accomplished by lifting the
landing gear spring upward off the hook assembly and
checking for possible rotation of the hook assembly, by
hand, with hydraulic pressure off.

2. Pull hydraulic pump circuit breaker off.
3. With gear in down and locked position, move
gear selector handle to GEAR UP position and note
actuation of main gear downlock hooks.
4. As soon as left downlock hook is actuated to
unlock the left gear, move gear selector handle back
to GEAR DOWN position to simulate what would occur
if the pilot were to select gear down before the gear
was fully retracted. If downlock hooks do not lock
the gear in the down position, check downlock system
for misalignment.
5A-43 RIGGING MAIN GEAR DOWN LIMIT
SWITCHES. (Refer to figure 5A-10, sheets 1 and 2.) The
main gear down limit switches (9) are attached to
brackets which are welded to the spring assembly (10).
Adjustment is accomplished by loosening the lock nut
and either tightening or loosening the adjustment nut
and retightening the lock nut against the bracket behind
the adjustment nut. Down limit switches (9) are to be
adjusted to the dimension stipulated in Sheet 2.
5A-44. RIGGING MAIN GEAR UP LIMIT SWITCHES.
(Refer to figure 5A-10, Sheet 3.) The main gear up limit
switches (6) are mounted in indicator light brackets (2)
which are attached to the underside of the removable
floorboards (1), immediately above the main landing gear
assemblies. The switches are contacted by
actuators, bonded to clamps, which are attached to
the aft leg of the landing gear strut pivot assembly.
When replacing a clamp/actuator assembly, adjust
the actuator tab prior to bonding, so that it actuates
the gear-up indicator light switch. Bond the actuator
to the clamp with HYSOL EA-9309 or 3M EC-2216

and 2.) Rotation of the control wheel rotates four
bearing roller assemblies (15) on the end of the control
wheel tube (14), which in turn, rotates a square control
tube assembly (20) inside and extending from the control
wheel tube (14). Attached to this square control tube
assembly (20) is a quadrant (29) which operates the
aileron system. This same arrangement is provided for
both control wheels. Synchronization of the control
wheels is obtained by the interconnect cable (32),
interconnect cable turnbuckle (33), and interconnect
cable adjustment terminals (28). The forward end of the
square control tube assembly (20) is mounted in a
bearing block (31) on firewall (34) and does not move
fore-and-aft, but rotates with the control wheel. The
four bearing roller assemblies (15) on the end of the
control wheel tube (14) reduce friction as the control
wheel is moved fore-and-aft for elevator system
operation. A sleeve weld assembly (11), containing
bearings which permit the control wheel tube (14) to
rotate within it, is secured to the control wheel tube (14)
by a sleeve and retaining ring in such a manner that it.".
moves fore-and-aft with the control wheel tube. This
movement allows the push-pull tube (22), attached to the
sleeve weld assembly (11), to operate an elevator arm
assembly (23), to which one elevator control cable (24) is
attached. A torque tube (37) connects this elevator arm
assembly (23) to the one on the opposite end of the torque
tube (37), to which the other elevator cable is attached.
When dual controls are installed, the copilot's control
wheel is linked to the aileron and elevator control
systems in the same manner as the pilot's control wheel.

(Refer to

7-2. DESCRIPTION. The wing flap control system
consists of an electric motor and transmission assembly, drive pulleys, synchronizing push-pull tubes,
bellcranks, push-pull rods, cables, pulleys and a
follow-up control. Power from the motor and transmission assembly is transmitted to the flaps by a
system of drive pulleys, cables and synchronizing
tubes. Electrical power to the motor is controlled by
two microswitches mounted on a "floating" arm, a
control lever and a follow-up control. As the control
lever is moved to the desired flap setting, a switch is
tripped actuating the flap motor. As the flaps move,
the floating arm is rotated by the follow-up control
until the active switch clears the control lever cam,
breaking the circuit. To reverse the direction of flap
travel, the control lever is moved in the opposite
direction. When the control lever cam contacts the
second switch the flap motor is energized in the opposite direction. Likewise, the follow-up control
moves the floating arm until the second switch is
clear of the control lever cam.
7-3. OPERATIONAL CHECK.
a. Operate flaps through their full range of travel,

c. Check wing flaps for sluggish operation on the
ground with engine running.
d. With flaps full UP, mount an inclinometer on one
flap and set to 0° . Lower flaps to full DOWN position
and check flap angle as specified in figure 1-1. Check
approximate mid-range percentage setting against
degrees as indicated on inclinometer. Repeat the
same procedure for the opposite flap.
NOTE
An inclinometer for measuring control surface
travel is available from Cessna Parts
Distribution (CPD 2) through Cessna Service
Stations. Refer to Section 6.

ENGINE COWLING.

12-2. DESCRIPTION. The engine cowling is divided
into four major removable segments. The left upper
cowling segment has two access doors, one at the upper front provides access to the oil filler neck and
one at the left aft side provides access to the oil dipstick. The right and left nose caps are fastened to
the lower engine nacelle and to each other with
screws. The right and left upper cowl segments are
secured with quick-release fasteners and either segment may be removed individually. The lower engine nacelle is an extension of the fuselage and provides fairing for the nose wheel in its retracted posttion.
12-3. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION.
a. Release the quick-release fasteners attaching
the cowling to the fuselage and at the parting surfaces
of the left and right segments.
b. Remove screws securing the left and right nose
cap together and to the lower engine nacelle.
c. Disconnect air ducts from nose caps and remove
caps.
d. Reverse the preceding steps for reinstallation.
Ensure the baffle seals are turned in the correct
direction to confine and direct air flow around the
engine. The vertically installed seals must fold
forward and the side seals must fold upwards.
12-4. CLEANING AND INSPECTION. Wipe the inner surfaces of the cowling segments with a clean
cloth saturated with cleaning solvent (Stoddard or
equivalent). If the inside surface of the cowling is
coated heavily with oil or dirt, allow solvent to soak
until foreign material can be removed. Wash painted
surfaces of the cowling with a solution of mild soap
and water and rinse thoroughly. After washing, a
coat of wax may be applied to the painted surfaces to
prolong paint life. After cleaning, inspect cowling
for dents, cracks, loose rivets and spot welds. Repair all defects to prevent spread of damage.
12-5. REPAIR. If cowling skins are extensively
damaged, new complete sections of the cowling
should be installed. Standard insert-type patches
may be used for repair if repair parts are formed
to fit contour of cowling. Small cracks may be stopdrilled and small dents straightened if they are reinforced on the inner surface with a doubler of the
same material as the cowling skin. Damaged reinforcement angles should be replaced with new parts.
Due to their small size, new reinforcement angles
are easier to install than to repair the damaged part.
12-6.

COWL FLAPS.

12-7. DESCRIPTION. Cowl flaps are provided to
aid in controlling engine temperature. Two cowl
flaps, operated by a single control in the cabin, are
located at the lower aft end of the engine nacelle.
The engine exhaust tailpipes extend through cutouts
in the aft portion of each cowl flap.

12-8. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION.

(See

figure 12-1.)
a. Place control lever (2) in the OPEN position.
b. Disconnect control cevises (12) from shockmounts (13).
c. Remove safety wire securing hinge pins (9) to
cowl flaps, pull pins from hinges and remove flaps.
d. Reverse the preceding steps for reinstallation.
Rig cowl flaps, if necessary, in accordance with
paragraph 12-9.
12-9. RIGGING. (See figure 12-1.)
a. Disconnect control clevises (12) from shockmounts (13).
b. Check to make sure that the flexible controls
reach their internal stops in each direction. Mark
controls so that full travel can be readily checked
and maintained during the remaining rigging procedures.
c. Place control lever (2) in the CLOSED position.
If the control lever cannot be placed in the closed
position, loosen clamp (5) at upper end of controls
and slip housings in clamp or adjust controls at
upper clevis (4) to position control lever in bottom
hole of position bracket (3).
d. With the control lever in CLOSED position, hold
one cowl flap closed (against the rubber bumpers on
the fuselage), loosen jam nut and adjust clevis (12) on
the control to hold cowl flap in this position and install bolt.
NOTE
If the lower control clevis (12) cannot be adjusted far enough to streamline flap and still
maintain sufficient thread engagement, loosen
the lower control housing clamp (8) and slide
housing in clamp as necessary. Be sure
threads are visible in clevis inspection holes.
e. Repeat the preceding step for the opposite cowl
flap. Cowl flaps should open approximately 5.00
inches when measured in a straight line from the aft
edge of door to firewall.
g. Check that all clamps and jam nuts are tight.
12-10.

ENGINE.

12-11. DESCRIPTION. An air cooled, wet-sump,
six-cylinder, horizontally-opposed, direct-drive,
fuel injected, Continental IO-520-L series engine
driving a constant-speed-propeller is used to power
the aircraft. The cylinders, numbered from rear to
front are staggered to permit a separate throw on
the crankshaft for each connecting rod. The right
rear cylinder is number 1 and cylinders on the right
side are identified by odd numbers 1, 3 and 5. The
left rear cylinder is number 2 and the cylinders on
the left side are identified as numbers 2, 4 and 6.
Refer to pargraph 12-12 for engine data. For repair and overhaul of the engine, accessories and propeller, refer to the appropriate publications issued
by their manufacturer's. These publications are
available from the Cessna Supply Division.

ENGINE BAFFLES.

12-24. DESCRIPTION. The sheet metal baffles installed on the engine direct the flow of air around the
cylinders and other engine components to provide
optimum cooling. Thee baffles incorporate rubberasbestos composition seals at points of contact with
the engine cowling and other engine components to
help confine and direct the airflow to the desired area.
It is very important to engine cooling that the baffles
and seals are in good condition and installed correctly.
The vertical seals must fold forward and the side
seals must fold upwards. Removal and installation of
the various baffle segments is possible with the cowling removed. Be sure that any new baffles seal properly.
12-25. CLEANING AND INSPECTION. The engine
baffles should be cleaned with a suitable solvent to
remove oil and dirt.
NOTE
The rubber-asbestos seal are oil and grease
resistant but should not be soaked in solvent
for long periods.

12-26. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION. Removal
and installation of the various baffle segments is
possible with the cowling removed. Be sure that any
replaced baffles and seals are installed correctly and
that they seal to direct the airflow in the correct direction. Various lines, hoses, wires and controls
are routed through some baffles. Make sure that
these parts are reinstalled correctly after installation of baffles.
12-27. REPAIR. Repair of an individual segment of
engine baffle is generally impractical, since, due to
the small size and formed shape of the part, replacement is usually more economical. However, small
cracks may be stop-drilled and a reinforcing doubler
installed. Other repairs may be made as long as
strength and cooling requirements are met. Replace
sealing strips If they do not seal properly.
12-28.

ENGINE OIL SYSTEM.

12-29. DESCRIPTION. The oil system is of the full
pressure wet sump type. Refer to applicable engine
manufacturer's overhaul manual for specific details
and descriptions.

Inspect baffles for cracks in the metal and for loose
and/or torn seals. Repair or replace any defective
parts.

knife,

Before discarding removed filter
element (5), remove the outer perforated paper cover; using a sharp
cut through the folds of the
filter element at both ends. Then,
carefully unfold the pleated element
and examine the material trapped in
the element for evidence of internal
engine damage, such as chips or
particles from bearings. In new or
newly overhauled engines, some small
particles or metallic shavings might
be found, these are generally of no
consequence and should not be confused with particles produced by impacting, abrasion or pressure.
Evidence of internal damage found in
the oil filter element justifies further
examination to determine the cause.

f. Wash lid (7), hollow stud (1), and can (4) in solvent |
and dry with compressed air.
NOTE
When installing a new filter element (5), it
is important that all gaskets are clean,
lubricated and positioned properly. Apply
a thin coating of Dow Corning compound,
DC-4, on the base gasket by brushing or
wiping. Also check that the correct amount
of torque is applied to the hollow stud (1).
If the stud is under-torqued. oil leakage will
occur. If the stud is over-torqued, the filter
can might possibly be deformed, again causing oil leakage.

through the oil cooler and is discharged into the engine compartment. Oil circulating through the engine
is allowed to circulate continuously through warm-up
passages to prevent the oil from congealing when operating in low temperatures. On the standard and
non-congealing oilcoolers, as the oil increases to a
certain temperature, the thermostat valve closes,
causing the oil to be routed to all of the cooler passages for cooling. Oil returning to the engine from
the cooler is routed through the internally drilled oil
passages.

(Refer to figure

12-41. DESCRIPTION. The fuel injection system
is a low pressure system of injecting fuel into the
intake valve port of each cylinder. It is a multinozzle, continuous-flow type which controls fuel flow
to match engine airflow. Any change in throttle position, engine speed, or a combination of both, causes
changes in fuel flow in the correct relation to engine
airflow. A manual mixture control and a fuel flow
indicator are provided for leaning at any combination
of altitude and power setting. The fuel flow indicator
is calibrated in gallons per hour and indicates approximately the gallons of fuel consumed per hour. The
continuous-flow system uses a typical rotary vane fuel
pump. There are no running parts in this system except for the engine-driven fuel pump.

FUEL-AIR CONTROL UNIT.

12-43. DESCRIPTION. This unit occupies the position ordinarily used for a carburetor, at the intake
manifold inlet. The function of this unit is to control
engine air intake and to set the metered fuel pressure
for proper fuel-air ratio. There are three control
elements in this unit, one for air and two for fuel.
One of the fuel control elements is for fuel mixture
and the other is for fuel metering. Fuel enters the
control unit through a strainer and passes to the
metering valve. The position of the metering valve
controls this fuel passed to the manifold valve and
nozzles. A linkage connecting the metering valve to
the air throttle proportions airflow to fuel flow.
The position of the mixture valve determines the
amount of fuel returned to the fuel pump. The fuel
control portion of the fuel-air control unit is enclosed in a shroud and is blast-air cooled to help
prevent vapor lock.

and slide tubing back to gain access to the fuel line
fittings.
f. Disconnect fuel lines at control unit.
g. Loosen hose clamps which secure the control
unit to the right and left intake manifolds.
h. Remove control unit.
i. Cover the open ends of the intake manifold piping
to prevent entry of foreign matter.
j. Reverse the preceding steps for reinstallation.
Use new gaskets when installing control unit. Rig
throttle and mixture controls in accordance with paragraphs 12-85 and 12-86 respectively. Rig throttleoperated microswitch in accordance with Section 13.
12-45. CLEANING AND INSPECTION.
a. Check control connections, levers and linkage for
security, safetying and for lost motion due to wear.
b. Remove the fuel screen assembly and clean in
solvent (Stoddard or equivalent). Reinstall and safety.
c. Check the air control body for cracks and control unit for overall condition.
12-46. ADJUSTMENTS. (Refer to figure 12-7.) The
idle speed adjustment is a conventional spring-loaded
screw located in the air throttle lever. The idle
mixture adjustment is the locknut at the metering
valve end of the linkage. Tightening the nut to shorten the linkage provides a richer mixture. A leaner
mixture is obtained by backing off the nut to lengthen
the linkage. Idle speed and mixture adjustment
should be accomplished after the engine has been
warmed up. Since idle rpm may be affected by idle
mixture adjustment, it may be necessary to readjust
idle rpm after setting the idle mixture correctly.
a. Set the throttle stop screw to obtain 600 * 25
rpm, with throttle control pulled full out against idle
stop.
NOTE
Engine idle speed may vary among different
engines. An engine should idle smoothly,
without excessive vibration and the idle speed
should be high enough to maintain idling oil
pressure and to preclude any possibility of
engine stoppage in flight when the throttle is
closed.

12-22

b. Advance throttle to increase engine speed to
1000 rpm.
c. Pull mixture control knob slowly and steadily
toward the idle cut-off position, observing tachometer, then return control full IN (RICH) position
before engine stops.
d. Adjust mixture adjusting nut to obtain a slight
and momentary gain of 25 to 50 rpm at 1000 rpm
engine speed as mixture control is moved from full
IN (RICH) toward idle cut-off position. Return control to full IN (RICH) to prevent engine stoppage.
e. If mixture is set too LEAN, engine speed will
drop immediately, thus requiring a richer mixture.
Tighten adjusting nut (clockwise) for a richer mixture.
f. If mixture is set too RICH, engine speed will increase above 50 rpm, thus requiring a leaner mixture. Back off adjusting nut (counterclockwise) for
a leaner mixture.
NOTE
After each adjustment to the idle mixture,
run engine up to approximately 2000 rpm
to clear engine of excess fuel to obtain a
correct idle speed.
12-47. FUEL MANIFOLD VALVE (FUEL DISTRIBUTOR).
12-48. DESCRIPTION. Metered fuel flows to the
fuel manifold valve, which provides a central point
for distributing fuel to the individual cylinders. An
internal diaphragm, operated by fuel pressure,
raises or lowers a plunger to open and close the individual cylinder supply ports simultaneously. A
needle valve in the plunger ensures that the plunger
fully opens the outlet ports before fuel flow starts
and closes the ports simultaneously for positive
engine shut-down. A fine-mesh screen is included in the fuel manifold valve.
NOTE
The fuel manifold valves are supplied in two
flow ranges. When replacing a valve assembly, be sure the replacement valve has the
same suffix letter as the one stamped on the
cover of the valve removed.

12-58. DESCRIPTION. The fuel pump is a positivedisplacement, rotating vane type, connected to the
accessory drive section of the engine. Fuel enters
the pump at the swirl well of the pump vapor separa-

12-23

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
tor. Here, vapor is separated by a swirling motion
so that only liquid fuel is fed to the pump. The vapor
is drawn from the top center of the swirl well by a
small pressure jet of fuel and is fed into the vapor
return line, where it is returned to the aircraft fuel
system. Since the pump is engine-driven, changes
inengine speed affects total pump flow proportionally. A check valve allows the auxiliary fuel pump
pressure to bypass the engine-driven fuel pump for
starting, or in the event of engine-driven fuel pump
failure. The pump supplies more fuel than is required by the engine; therefore, a spring-loaded,
diaphragm type relief valve is provided, with an adjustable orifice installed in the fuel passage to the
relief valve to maintain desired fuel pressure for
engine power setting. The adjustable orifice allows
the exact desired pressure setting at full throttle.
The fuel pump is equipped with a manual mixture
control to provide positive mixture control throughout
the range required by the injection system. This control limits output of the pump from full rich to idle
cut-off. Non-adjustable mechanical stops are located
at these positions. The fuel pump is ram-air cooled
to help prevent high fuel temperatures. The ram air
is picked up at the upper left engine baffle and directed through a flexible tube to the fuel pump shroud.
The fuel supply and return lines from the fuel pump
to the control unit are routed inside flexible tubes to
help prevent vaporized fuel at these points.
12-59. REMOVAL.
a. Place fuel selector or fuel ON-OFF valve in OFF
position and mixture control In IDLE CUT-OFF position.
b. Remove cowling in accordance with paragraph
12-3.
c. Loosen the clamps and slide the flexible tubes
free of the horns on the fuel pump shroud to gain access to the fuel lines.

MAGNETOS.

12-75. DESCRIPTION. The airplane may be
equipped with either 662 series or 6200 series
Slick magnetos. The magnetos contain a conventional two-pole rotating magnet (rotor),
mounted in ball bearings. Driven by the engine
through an-impulse coupling at one end, the rotor

shaft operates the breaker points at the other end
of the shaft. The nylon rotor gear drives a nylon
distributor gear which transfers high tension current from the wedge-mounted coil to the proper
outlet in the distributor block. A coaxial capacitor
is mounted in the distributor block housing to serve
as the condenser as well as a radio noise suppressor.
Both nylon gears are provided with timing marks for
clockwise or counterclockwise rotation. The distributor gear and distributor block having timing
marks, visible through the air vent holes, for
timing to the engine. A timing hole is located in
the 662 series magneto-in the bottom of the magneto
adjacent to the flange. In the 6200 series, the timing
hole is located in the distributor block. A timing pin
or 6-penny nail can be inserted through this timing
hole into the mating hole in the rotor shaft to lock
the magneto approximately in the proper firing position. The breaker assembly is accessible only after
removing the screws fastening the magneto halves
together and disconnecting the capacitor slip terminal.
Do not separate magneto halves while it is installed
on the engine.

neto or disconnect all spark plug leads to
prevent accidental firing of the engine.
To locate the compression stroke of number one cylinder, remove the lower spark plugs from each cylinder except number one cylinder. Remove the top
plug from number one cylinder. Place thumb of one
hand over the number one cylinder spark plug hole
and rotate the crankshaft in the direction of normal
rotation until the compression stroke is indicated by
positive pressure inside the cylinder lifting the thumb
off the spark plug hole. After the compression stroke
is obtained, locate number one piston at its advanced
firing position. Locating the advanced firing position
of number one cylinder may be obtained by use of a
timing disc and pointer, Timrite, protractor and
piston locating gage or external engine timing marks
alignment.
NOTE
External engine timing marks are located on
a bracket attached to the starter adapter,
with a timing mark on the alternator drive
pulley as the reference point.
In all cases, it must be definitely determined that the
number one cylinder is at the correct firing position

and on the compression stroke, when the crankshaft
is turned in its normal direction of rotation. After
the engine has been placed in the correct firing position, install and time the magneto to the engine in the
following manner.
NOTE
Install the magneto drive coupling retainer
and rubber bushings into the magneto drive
gear hub slot. Insert the two rubber bushings into the retainer with the chamfered
edges facing toward the front of the engine.
a. Turn the magneto shaft until the timing marks,
visible through the ventilation plug holes are aligned,
(red-to-red or black-to-black). Insert a timing pin
or . 093 inch diameter 6-penny nail through the timing
hole on the bottom of the magneto adjacent to the
flange (662 series); or in the distributor block (6200
series). Next, push the timing pin through the mating
hole in the rotor shaft. This locks the magneto close

to the firing position during installation on the engine.

then push it back into mesh. DO NOT WITHDRAW THE MAGNETO DRIVE GEAR FROM
ITS OIL SEAL.
b. After magneto gasket is in place, position the
magneto on the engine and secure, then remove the
timing pin from the magneto. Be sure to remove
this pin before turning the propeller.
c. Connect a timing light to the capacitor terminal
at the front of the magneto and to a good ground.
d. Turn propeller back a few degrees (opposite of
normal rotation) to close the contact points.
NOTE
Do not turn the propeller back far enough to
engage the impulse coupling or the propeller
will have to be turned in normal direction of
rotation until the impulse coupling releases,
then backed up to slightly before the firing
position.
e. Slowly advance the propeller in the normal direction of rotation until the timing light indicates the contact points breaking. Magneto mounting clamps may
be loosened so that the magneto may be shifted to
break the points at the correct firing position.
f. Tighten magneto mounting nuts and recheck

timing.
g. Repeat steps "a" through "f" for the other magneto.
h. After both magnetos have been timed, check synchronization of both magnetos. Magnetos must fire
at the same time.
i. Remove timing devices from magneto and engine.
j. Connect spark plug leads to their correct magneto outlets.
NOTE
The No. 1 magneto outlet is the one closest
to the ventilation plug on the side of the
magneto having the manufacturer's insignia.
The magneto fires at each successive outlet
in clockwise direction. Connect No. 1 magneto outlet to No. 1 cylinder spark plug lead,
No. 2 outlet to the next cylinder to fire, etc.
Engine firing order is listed in paragraph
12-12.

k. Connect ignition switch (primary) leads to the

1. Inspect magneto installation and install engine
cowling in accordance with paragraph 12-3.

If the magneto drive gear was disengaged
during magneto removal, hold the magneto
in the horizontal position it will occupy
when installed, make certain that the drive
gear coupling slot is aligned with the magneto coupling lugs. If it is not aligned, pull
the magneto drive gear out of mesh with its
drive gear and rotate it to the aligned angle,

12-79. MAINTENANCE. At the first 25-hour inspection and at each 100-hour inspection thereafter,
the breaker compartment should be inspected. Magneto-to-engine timing should be checked at the first
25-hour inspection, first 50-hour inspection, first
100-hour inspection and thereafter at each 100-hour

inspection. If timing is as specified in paragraph 1212, internal timing need not be checked. If timing is
out of tolerance, remove magneto and set internal
timing, then install and time to the engine. In the
event the magneto internal timing marks are off
more than plus or minus five degrees when the breaker points open to fire number one cylinder, remove
the magneto and check the magneto internal timing.
Whenever the magneto halves are separated the
breaker point assembly should always be checked.
As long as internal timing and magnet-t-toengine
timing are within the preceding tolerances, it is
recommended that the magneto be checked internally
only at 500 hour intervals. It is normal for contact
points to burn and the cam to wear a comparable
amount so the magneto will remain in time within12-80.
itself. This is accomplished by having a good area
making contact on the surface between the points
and the correct amount of spring pressure on the
cam. The area on the points should be twenty-five
percent of the area making contact. The spring
pressure at the cam should be 10. 5 to 12.5 ounces.
When the contact points burn, the area becomes
irregular, which is not detrimental to the operation
of the points unless metal transfer is too great which
will cause the engine to misfire. Figure 12-11 illustrates good and bad contact points. A small dent will
appear on the nylon insulator between the cam follower and the breaker bar. This is normal and does not
require replacement.

4. Check the carbon brush on the distributor
gear for excessive wear. The brush must extend a
minimum of 1/32 nch beyond the end of the gear
shaft. The spring which the carbon brush contacts
should be bent our approximately 20 degrees from
vertical, since spring pressure on the brush holds
the distributor gear shaft against the thrust bearing
in the distributor Mock.
5. Oil the bearings at each end of the distributor
gear shaft with a drop of SAE 20 oil. Wipe excess oil
from parts.
6. Make sure internal timing is correct and reassemble magneto. Install and properly time magneto to engine.

a. Moisture Check.
1. Remove magneto from engine and remove
screws securing the magneto halves together, disconnect capacitor slip terminal and remove distributor. Inspect for moisture.
2. Check distributor gear finger and carbon

MAGNETO CHECK. *'anced timing settings in some cases, is the r. :,t of the erroneous
practice of bumping magnetos up in timing in order
to reduce RPM drop on single igution. NEVER ADVANCE TIMING BEYOND SPECIFICATIONS IN ORDER TO REDUCE RPM DROP. Too much importance is being attached to RPM drop on single Ignition. RPM drop on single ignition is a natural characteristic of dual ignition design. The purpose of
the following magneto check is to determine that all
cylinders are firing. If all cylinders are not firing,
the engine will run extremely rough and cause for
investigation will be quite apparent. The amount of
RPM drop is not necessarily significant and will be
influenced by ambient air temperature, humidity,
airport altitude, etc. In fact, absence of RPM drop
should be cause for suspicion that the magneto timing
been bumped up and is set in advance of the setting
specified. Magneto checks should be performed on a
comparative basis between individual right and left
magneto performance.
a. Start and run engine until the oil and cylinder
head temperature is in the normal operating range.
b. Place the propeller control in the full low pitch
(high RPM) position.
c. Advance engine speed to 1700 RPM.
d. Turn the ignition switch to the "R" position and
note the RPM drop, then return the switch to the
"BOTH" position to clear the opposite set of plugs.
e. Turn the switch to the "L" position and note the
RPM drop, then return the switch to the "BOTH" posi-

tion.

NOTE
IfSi~~~~~ igniiontrobleshold eveophas
If ignition trouble should develop, spark plugs
and ignition wiring should be checked first. If
the trouble definitely is associated with a magneto, use the following to help disclose the
source of trouble without overhauling the magneto.

3. Check breaker point assembly for moisture,
especially on the surfaces of the breaker points.
4. If any moisture is evident in the preceding
places, wipe with a soft, dry, clean, lint-free cloth.
b. Breaker Compartment Check,
1. Check all parts of the breaker point assembly for security.
2. Check breaker point surface for evidence of
excessive wear, burning, deep pits and carbon deposits. Breaker points may be cleaned with a hardfinish paper. If breaker point assembly is defective,
install a new assembly. Make no attempt to stone or
dress the breaker points. Clean new breaker points
with clean, unleaded gasoline and hard-finish paper
before installing.
3. Check capacitor mounting bracket for cracks
or looseness.

. The RPM drop should not exceed 150 RPM on
either magneto or show greater than 50 RPM differentlal between magnetos. A smooth' RPM drop-off
past normal is uuallya sign of a too lean or too
rich mixture. A sharp RPM drop-off past normal is
usually a sign of a fouled plug, a defective harness
lead or a magneto out of time. If there is doubt concerning operation of the ignition system, RPM checks
at a leaner mixture setting or at higher engine speeds
will usually confirm whether a deficiency exists.
NOTE
An absence of RPM drop may be an indication of faultygrounding of one side of the
ignition system, a disconnected ground lead
at magneto or possibly the magneto timing
is set too far In advance.

12-81. SPARK PLUGS. Two spark plugs are installed in each cylinder and screw into hellcoil type
thread inserts. The spark plugs are shielded to prevent spark plug noise in the radios and have an internal resistor to provide longer terminal life. Spark
plug service life will vary with operating conditions.
A spark plug that is kept clean and properly gapped
will give better and longer service than one that is
allowed to collect lead deposits and is improperly
gapped.
NOTE
Refer to Section 2 for inspection intervals.
Remove, clean, inspect and regap all spark
plugs at these intervals. At this time, install
lower spark plugs in upper portion of cylinders and install upper spark plugs in lower
portion of cylinders. Since deterioration of
lower spark plugs is usually more rapid than
that of the upper spark plugs, rotating helps
prolong spark plug life.
12-82. ENGINE CONTROLS. (Refer to figure 12-11.)n
12-83. DESCRIPTION. The throttle, mixture and
propeller controls are of the push-pull type. The
propeller and mixture controls are equipped to lock
in any position desired. To move the control, the
spring-loaded button, located in the end of the control knob, must be depressed. When the button is
released, the control is locked. The propeller and
mixture controls also have a vernier adjustment.
Turning the control knob in either direction will
change the control setting. The vernier is primarily
for precision control setting. The throttle control
has neither a locking button nor a vernier adjustment,
but contains a knurled friction knob which is rotated

12-32

THESE

for more or less friction as desired. The friction
knob prevents vibration induced "creeping" of the control. A "Palnut" type locknut is installed in back of
the existing locknut at the engine end of the throttle,
mixture and propeller controls.
12-84. RIGGING. When adjusting any engine control,
it is important to check that the control slides smoothly throughout its full travel, that it locks securely if
equipped with a locking device and the arm or lever
which it operates moves through its full arc of travel.
CAUTION
Whenever engine controls are being disconnected, pay particular attention to the EXACT
position, size and number of attaching washers and spacers. Be sure to install attaching
parts as noted when connecting controls.

Refer to inspection and lubrication charts
in Section 2 of this manual for inspection,
lubrication and/or replacement intervals
for engine controls.

a. Push throttle control full in, then pull control
out approximately 1/8 inch for cushion.
b. Check that throttle control arm is against the
mechanical stop. If necessary, loosen locknut and
screw rod end IN or OUT as necessary to align with
attachment hole while throttle arm is against the
mechanical stop.
c. Pull control full out and check that throttle arm
contacts the idle stop.
d. The throttle arm must contact the stops in each
direction and the control should have approximately
1/8 inch cushion when pushed full in.

EXHAUST SYSTEM.

12-96. DESCRIPTION. The exhaust system consists
of two exhaust stack assemblies, for the left and right
bank of cylinders. Each cylinder has a riser pipe attached to the exhaust port. The three risers at each
bank of cylinders are joined together into a collector
pipe forming an exhaust stack assembly. The center
riser on each bank is detachable, but the front and aft
risers are welded to the collector pipe. The left muffler is enclosed in a shroud which captures exhaust
heat which is used to heat the cabin.

mately 1-1/2 psi (3 inches of mercury) air pressure
while each stack assembly is submerged in water.
Any leaks will appear as bubbles and can be readily

4. It is recommended that exhaust stacks found
defective be replaced before the next flight.
d. After installation of exhaust system components,
perform the air leak check as specified in step "b"
of this paragraph to make sure that the system is
acceptable.
e. In addition to the above inspections, at 200 hours
(after the mufflers have accumulated more than 1000
hours time in service) perform the following inspection:
1. Remove engine cowling in accordance with
paragraph 12-3.
2. Remove the mufflers from the collector
assemblies.
3. Remove the tailpipes from the mufflers.
4. Using a flashlight and a mirror, inspect
the baffles and cones from both ends of the mufflers.
Check for general deterioration and make sure the
baffles are intact and not separated from the support rods.
5. If defects are found, replace the mufflers
before further flight.
6. If no defects are found, reinstall the mufflers and tailpipes.
12-99.

CAUTIION
Due to the desludging effect of the diluted
oil, engine operation should be observed
closely during the initial warm-up of the
engine. Engines that have considerable
amount of operational hours accumulated
since their last dilution period may be
seriously affected by the dilution process.
This will be caused by the diluted oil dislodging sludge and carbon deposits within
the engine. This residue will collect in
the oil sump and possibly clog the screened
inlet to the oil sump. Small deposits may
actually enter the oil sump and be trapped
by the main oil filter screen. Partial or
complete loss of engine lubrication may resuit from either condition. If these conditions are anticipated after oil dilution, the
engine should be run for several minutes at
normal operating temperatures and then
stopped and inspected for evidence of sludge
and carbon deposits in the oil sump and oil
filter screen. Future occurrence of this
condition can be prevented by diluting the
oil prior to each engine oil change. This
will also prevent the accumulation of the
sludge and carbon deposits.

EXTREME WEATHER MAINTENANCE.

12-100. COLD WEATHER. Cold weather starting
will be made easier by the Installation of an engine
primer system and a ground service receptacle. The
primer system is manually operated from the cabin.
Fuel is supplied by a line from the fuel strainer to
the plunger. Operating the primer forces fuel to the
engine. With an external power receptacle installed,
an external power source may be connected to assist
in cold weather or low battery starting. Refer to
paragraph 12-104 for use of the external power receptacle. The following may also be used to assist
engine starting in extremely cold weather. After
the last night of the day, drain the engine oil into a
clean container so the oil can be preheated. Cover
the engine to prevent ice or snow from collecting inside the cowling. When preparing the aircraft for
flight or engine run-up after these conditions have
been followed, preheat the drained engine oil.

12-101. HOT WEATHER. Refer to Pilot's Operating
Handbook.
12-102. SEACOAST AND HUMID AREAS. In salt
water areas special care should be taken to keep
the engine, accessories and airframe clean to prevent oxidation. In humid areas, fuel and oil should
be checked frequently and drained of condensation
to prevent corrosion.

l
Do not heat the oil above 121"C (250-F). A
flash fire may result. Before pulling the
propeller through, ascertain that the magneto switch is in the OFF position to prevent accidental firing of the engine.
After preheating the engine oil, gasoline may be mixed with the heated oil in a ratio of 1 part gasoline to
12 parts engine oil before pouring into the engine oil
sump. If the free air temperature is below minus
29ºC (-20-F), the engine compartment should be preheated by a ground heater. Pre-heating the engine
compartment is accomplished by inducing heated air
up through the cowl flap openings; thus heating both
the oil and cylinders. After the engine compartment

12-103. DUSTY AREAS. Dust induced into the intake system of the engine is probably the greatest
single cause of early engine wear. When operating
in high dust conditions, service the induction air
filters daily as outlined in Section 2. Also change
engine oil and lubricate airframe items more often
than specified.

case of suspected lw engine power, a static runup should be conducted as follows:
a. Run-up engine, using take-off power and mixture settings, with the aircraft facing 90 ° right and
then left to the wind direction.
b. Record the RPM obtained in each run-up position.
NOTE

Daily changes n atmospheric pressure,
temperature and humidity will have a
slight effect on static run-up.
c. Average the results of the RPM obtained. It
should be within 50 RPM of 2680 RPM.
d. If the average results of the RPM obtained are
lower than stated above, the following recommended
checks may be performed to determine a possible
deficiency.
1. Check governor control for proper rigging.
It should be determined that the governor control
arm travels to the high RPM stop on the governor
and that the high RPM stop screw is adjusted properly. (Refer to Section 14 for procedures).
NOTE
If verification of governor operation is
necessary the governor may be removed
from the engine and a flat plate installed
over the engine pad. Run-up engine to
determine that governor was adjusted

properly.

carry metered fuel to the fuel discharge nozzles located in the cylinder heads. The outlet of each nozzle
is directed-into the intake port of each cylinder. An
air bleed and nozzle pressurization arrangement is
incorporated in each nozzle to aid in-vaporization of
the fuel. The nozzles are calibrated in several ranges.
All nozzles furnished for one engine are of the same
calibrated range and are identified by a number and
suffix letter stamped on the flat portion of the nozzle
body. When replacing a fuel discharge nozzle, be
sure that it is of the same calibrated range as the
rest of the nozzles in that engine. When a complete
set of nozzles is being replaced, the number must be
the same as the one removed but the suffix letter
may be different, as long as they are the same for
all nozzles being installed in a particular engine.

FUEL INJECTION PUMP.

12A-59. DESCRIPTION. The fuel pump is a positive
displacement, rotating vane type. R has a splined
shaft for connection to the accessory drive section
of the engine. Fuel enters the pump at the swirl well
of the pump vapor separator. Here, vapor is separated by a swirling motion so that only liquid fuel is fed
to the pump. The vapor is drawn from the top center
of the swirl well by a small pressure jet of fuel and
is fed into the vapor return line where it is returned
to the fuel tank. Since the pump is engine-driven,
changes in engine speed affect total pump flow proportionally. A check valve allows the auxiliary fuel pump
pressure to bypass the engine-driven pump for starting, or in the event of engine-driven fuel pump failure
in fight. The pump supplies more fuel than is required
by the engine; therefore, a relief valve is provided
to maintain a constant fuel pump pressure. The
engine-driven fuel pump is equipped with an aneroid.
The aneroid and relief valve are pressurized from the

12A-15

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
discharge side of the turbocharger compressor to
maintain a proper fuel/air ratio at altitude. The
aneroid is adjustable for fuel pump outlet pressure
at full throttle and the relief valve is adjustable forNOTE
fuel pump outlet pressure at idle.

INDUCTION AIR SYSTEM.

12A-64. DESCRIPTION. Ram air to the engine enters an induction air duct at the right side of the nose
cap. The air is filtered through a dry filter, located
in the induction airbox. From the filter, the air passes through a flexible duct to the inlet of the turbocharger compressor. The pressurized air is then
routed through a duct to the fuel-air control unit
mounted behind the engine and is then supplied to
the cylinders through the intake manifold piping. The
fuel-air control unit is connected to the cylinder intake manifold by elbows, hoses and clamps. The intake manifold is attached to each cylinder by four
bolts through a welded flange, which is sealed by a
gasket. A balance tube passes around the front side
of the engine to complete the manifold assembly. An

alternate air door, mounted in the duct between the
filter and the turbocharger compressor, is held
closed by a small magnet. If the induction air filter
should become clogged, suction from the turbocharger
compressor will open the door permitting the compressor to draw heated, unfiltered air from within the
engine compartment. The alternate air door, Serial
21061574 thru 21063489, should be checked every 100
hours of operation for hinge wear, ease of operation,
and complete closing. If excessive hinge wear is
found, the hinge and magnetic catches should be replaced. Refer to Service Information Letter #SE80-12
for part numbers. The induction air filter should be
removed and cleaned at each 50-hour inspection; or
more frequently when operating under dusty conditions. Refer to Section 2.

EXHAUST SYSTEM.

Refer to figurerisers

12A-97. DESCRIPTION. The exhaust system consists of two exhaust stack assemblies, one for the
left and one for the right bank of cylinders. These
exhaust stack assemblies are joined together to
route the exhaust from all cylinders through the
waste-gate or turbine. The three risers on the
left bank of cylinders are joined together into a
common pipe to form the left stack assembly. The
right rear cylinder exhaust is routed down and aft
to the rear of the engine where it connects to the
left stack assembly. The risers on the two right
front cylinders are connected to a common pipe to
form the right stack assembly. The right stack
assembly connects to the left stack assembly at
the front of the engine. Mounting pads for the
waste-gate and turbine are provided on the right
stack assembly. From the exhaust port of the turbine, a tailpipe routes the exhaust overboard through
the lower fuselage. The exhaust port of the wastegate is routed into the tailpipe so the exhaust gas can
be expelled from the system when not needed at the
turbine. The waste-gate is actuated by the wastegate actuator which, in turn, is controlled by.the
waste-gate controller. Also, sleeving is installed
on the fuel hose from the engine-driven pump to the
fuel metering body and on the hose from the auxiliary
fuel pump to the engine-driven pump. This is to prevent excessive heat on these fuel hoses as they route
close to the exhaust stack.

result in loss of optimum turbocharger efficiency and
engine power. To inspect the engine exhaust system
proceed as follows:
a. Remove engine cowling as required and remove
heater shroud so that ALL surfaces of the exhaust
assemblies can be visually inspected.

WARNING
Never use highly flammable solvents on
engine exhaust systems. Never use a
wire brush or abrasives to clean exhaust
systems or mark on the system with lead
pencils.

NOTE
NOTE
The lower sections of turbocharger supports (index 8, figure 12A-6)are supplied as service parts
with their upper holes omitted. These undrilled
parts are also supplied when a new turbocharger
inlet stack, right front stack, or either of the
two right front risers is ordered. The following steps outline the proper procedure for
drilling and installing the supports.
k. Install all parts but do not tighten attaching
clamps or bolts.
1. Torque nuts attaching risers to cylinders evenly
to 100-110 1b-in.
m. Tighten bolts and clamps per steps "d" through
"g".
NOTE
It is important that weight of turbocharger and
waste-gate assembly be counteracted, as listed
in step "f", when tightening clamps attaching
stacks to risers.
n. Make hole locations in undrilled supports to
match existing holes in upper supports.
o. Remove lower supports, leaving all other parts
tight.
p. Drill the marked holes with a 3/8-inch drill.
q. Reinstall supports, install bolts fastening upper
and lower supports together, then tighten all bolts
securely. If any exhaust system bolts or clamps
were loosened while lower supports were not installed, loosen all clamps and bolts and repeat the installation procedure to be sure no pre-loading is present.
r. Be sure all parts are secure and safetied as required. reinstall any parts removed for access, then
install nose caps and cowling.
12A-100. INSPECTION. Since exhaust systems of
this type are subject to burning, cracking and general
deterioration from alternate thermal stresses and
vibrations, inspection is important and should be accomplished every 50 hours of operation. Also, a thorough inspection of the engine exhaust system should

12A -22

Especially check the areas adjacent to welds
and slip joints. Look for gas deposits in
surrounding areas, indicating that exhaust
gases are escaping through a crack or hole
or around the slip joints.
b. After visual inspection, an air pressure test
should be made on the exhaust system as follows:
1. Attach the pressure side of an industrial
vacuum cleaner to the tailpipe opening, using a rubber plug to effect a seal as required.
NOTE
The inside of the vacuum cleaner hose should
be free of any contamination that might be
blown into the engine exhaust system.
2. With vacuum cleaner operating, all joints in
the exhaust system and the heat exchanger area may
be checked manually by feel, or by using a soap and
water solution and watching for jubbles. The exhaust
manifold in the heat exchanger area must be free of
air leaks. In other areas, forming of bubbles is acceptable; however, if bubbles are blown away system
is not acceptable. Also, some bubbles will appear at
the joint of the turbocharger turbine and compressor
bearing housing.
c. Where a surface is not accessible for a visual
inspection, or for a more positive test, the following
procedure is recommended.
1. Remove exhaust stack assemblies.
2. Use rubber expansion plugs to seal openings.
3. Using a manometer or gage, apply approximately 1-1/2 psi (3 inches of mercury) air pressure
while each stack assembly is submerged in water.
Any leaks will appear as bubbles and can be readily
detected.
d. It is recommended that any components of the
exhaust system found defective be replaced before
the next flight.
e. After installation of exhaust system components,
recheck by performing the air pressure test to make
sure that system is acceptable.

TURBOCHARGER.

12A-102. DESCRIPTION. The turbocharger is an
exhaust gas-driven compressor, or air pump, which
provides high velocity air to the engine intake manifold. The turbocharger is composed of a turbine
wheel, compressor wheel, turbine housing and compressor housing. The turbine, compressor wheel
and interconnecting drive shaft comprise one cornplete assembly and are the only moving parts in
the turbocharger. Turbocharger bearings are lubricated with filtered oil supplied from the engine oil
system. Engine exhaust gas enters the turbine
housing to drive the turbine wheel. The turbine
wheel, in turn, drives the compressor wheel, producing a high velocity of air entering the engine induction intake manifold. Exhaust gas is then dumped
overboard through the exhaust outlet of the turbine
housing and exhaust tailpipe. Air is drawn into the
compressor through the induction air filter and is
forced out of the compressor housing through a
tangential outlet to the intake manifold. The degree
of turbocharging is varied by means of a waste-gate
valve, which varies the amount of exhaust gas allowed
to bypass the turbine.
12A-103. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION. (Refer to
figure 12A-6).
a. Remove engine cowling as required.
b. Remove waste-gate to tailpipe clamp.
c. Loosen clamp at turbine exhaust outlet and work
tailpipe from turbine outlet.
d. Loosen clamps and remove air inlet and outlet
ducts from turbocharger compressor.
e. Disconnect oil pressure and scavenger lines
from turbocharger. Plug or cap open oil lines and
fittings. Remove clamp on oil supply line to the
turbocharger.
f. Loosen clamp and remove induction air inlet
elbow at turbocharger compressor.
g. Remove right cowl flap by disconnecting control
at cowl flap and removing hinge pin.
h. Cut safety wire and remove two bolts attaching
turbine to forward mounting bracket.
i. Remove three bolts attaching turbine to turbine
rear mounting bracket.
j. Remove three remaining bolts, washers and
nuts attaching turbine to exhaust manifold.

1. Reverse the preceding steps for reinstallation.
When installing the turbocharger, install a new gasket between exhaust manifold and turbine exhaust
inlet. Reinstall safety wire.
CAU TION
When installing cowling or turbine access
door, check that the clearence between
cowling or turbine access door and nose
gear doors is within presceibed limits of
.12 to .15 inches. Refer to SE77-15 for
details.
12A-104. CONTROLLER ANDWASTE-GATE
ACTUATOR.
12A-105. FUNCTIONS. The waste-gate actuator
and controller uses engine oil for power supply. The
turbocharger is controlled by the waste-gate, wastegate actuator, the absolute pressure and overboost
control valve. The waste-gate bypasses engine exhaust gas around the turbocharger turbine inlet.
The waste-gate actuator, which is physically connected to the waste-gate by mechanical linkage, controls the position of the waste-gate butterfly valve.
The absolute pressure controller controls the maximum turbocharger compressor discharge pressure,
the overboost control valve prevents an excessive
pressure increase from the turbocharger compressor.
12A-106. OPERATION. The waste-gate actuator is
spring-loaded to position the waste-gate to the normally open position when there is not adequate oil
pressure in the waste-gate actuator power cylinder
during engine shut down. When the engine is started,
oil pressure is fed into the waste-gate actuator power
cylinder through the capillary tube. This automatically fills the waste-gate actuator power cylinder and
lines leading to the controllers, blocking the flow of
oil by normally closed metering and/or poppet valves.
As oil pressure builds up in the waste-gate actuator
power cylinder, it overcomes the force of the wastegate open spring, closing the waste-gate. When the
waste-gate begins to close, the exhaust gases are
routed through the turbocharger turbine. As the engine increases its power and speed, the increase of

k. Work turbocharger from aircraft through cowl
flap opening in lower cowling.

SHOP NOTES:

12A-23

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
temperature and pressure of the exhaust gases causes
the turbocharger to rotate faster, raising the turbocharger compressor outlet pressure. As the compressor outlet pressure rises, the aneroid bellows
and the absolute pressure controller sense the increase in pressure. When at high engine speed and
load and the proper absolute pressure is reached, the
force on the aneroid bellows opens the normally
closed metering valve. When the oil pressure in the
waste-gate actuator power cylinder is lowered sufficiently, the waste-gate actuator open spring forces
the mechanical linkage to open the waste-gate. A
portion of the exhaust gases then bypasses the turbocharger turbine, thus preventing further increase of
turbocharger speed and holding the compressor discharge absolute pressure to the desired valve. Con-

versely, at engine idle, the turbocharger runs slowly
with low compressor pressure output; therefore, the
low pressure applied to aneroid bellows is not sufficient to affect the unseating of the normally closed
metering valve. Consequently, engine oil pressure
keeps the waste-gate closed. The overboost control
valve acts as a pressure relief valve and will open to
prevent an excessive pressure increase from the
turbocharger compressor. Above 17,000 feet, the
absolute pressure controller will continue to maintain
36.5 ±. 5 inches of mercury manifold pressure at full
throttle. It is necessary to reduce manifold pressure
with the throttle to follow the maximum manifold
pressure versus altitude schedule shown on the instrument panel placard.

CA OUTION
This turbocharged engine installation is equipped with a controller sustem which automatically
controls the engine within prescribed manifold pressure limits. Although these automatic
controller systems are very reliable and eliminate the need for manual control through constant
throttle manipulation, they are not infallible. For instance, such things as rapid throttle
manipulation (especially with cold oil), momentary waste-gate sticking, air in the oil system of the
controller. etc. can cause overboosting.
Consequently, it is still necessary that the pilot observe and be prepared to control the manifold pressure, particularly during take-off and power changes in flight.
The slight overboosting of manifold pressure beyond established maximums, which is occasionally
experienced during initial take-off roll or during a change to full throttle operation in flight, is
not considered detrimental to the engine as long as it is momentary. Momentary overboost is
generally in the area of 2 to 3 inches and can usually be controlled by slower throttle movement.
No corrective action is required where momentary overboosting corrects itself and is followed
by normal engine operation. However, if overboosting of this nature persists, or if the amount
of overboost goes as high as 6 inches, the controller and overboost control should be checked
for necessary adjustment or replacement of the malfunctioning component.
OVERBOOST EXCEEDING 6 INCHES beyond established maximums.is excessive and can result
in engine damage. It is recommended that overboosting of this nature be reported to your
Cessna Dealer, who will be glad to determine what, if any, corrective action needs to be taken.

12A-108. CONTROLLER AND TURBOCHARGER OPERATIONAL FLIGHT CHECK. The following procedure details the method of checking the operation of the absolute controller overboost control valve, and a performance
check of the turbocharger.
TAKE-OFF-ABSOLUTE CONTROLLER CHECK.
a. Cowl Flaps - Open.
b. Airspeed - 105 KIAS.
c. Oil Temperature - Middle of green arc.
d. Engine Speed - 2700 ± 25 RPM.
e. Fuel Flow - 192 LBS/HR * 6 LBS/HR (Full Rich Mixture).
f. Full Throttle M. P. - Absolute controller should maintain 36. 5 ± .5 in. Hg (stabilized).
Climb 2000 feet after take-off to be sure manifold pressure has stabilized. It is normal on the first take-off of
the day for full throttle manifold pressure to decrease 1/2 to 1.0 inch of mercury within one minute after theinitial application of full power. Refer to paragraph 12A-109 for absolute controller adjustment.
CLIMB - ABSOLUTE CONTROLLER AND TURBOCHARGER PERFORMANCE CHECK.
a. Cowl Flaps - Open.
b. Airspeed - 105 KIAS.
c. Engine Speed - 2500 RPM.
d. Fuel Flow - Adjust mixture for 120.0 LBS/HR.
e. Part-Throttle M. P. - 30.0 in. Bg.
f. Climb to 17, 000 feet - Check part-throttle critical altitude during climb.
This part-throttle critical altitude is where manifold pressure startz decreasing during the climb at a rate of
approximately 1.0 inch of mercury per 1000 feet. After noting this altitude and the outside air temperature
the desired manifold pressure should be maintained by advancing the throttle during the remainder of the climb.
Once the climb power setting is established after take-off, the controller should maintain a steady manifold
pressure up to the part-throttle critical altitude indicated in the following chart. If part-throttle critical
altitude has not been reached by 17, 000 feet, discontinue check and proceed to cruise check.
Outside Air Temperature

Part-Throttle Critical Altitude (80% Power)

Standard or Colder
20°F Above Standard
40°F Above Standard

Above 21,000 feet
13, 000 to 19, 000 feet
7, 000 to 13, 000 feet

Part-throttle critical altitudes lower than those listed indicate the turbocharger system is not operating
properly (refer to the trouble shooting chart in paragraph 12A-107). Critical altitudes above those listed
indicate turbocharger performance better than normal. Also check that fuel flow decreases as manifold
pressure decreases at critical altitude. Refer to the trouble shooting chart if fuel flow does not decrease.
CRUISE - TURBOCHARGER PERFORMANCE CHECK.
a. Cowl Flaps - Closed.
b. Airspeed - Level flight.
c. Pressure Altitude - 17, 000 feet.
d. Engine Speed - 2700 RPM (5 minute limit).
e. Part-Throttle M.P. - 30.0 in. Hg.
f. Fuel Flow - Lean to 130.0 LBS/HR.
g. Propeller Control (1) Slowly decrease RPM until manifold pressure starts to drop, indicating waste gate is closed.
NOTE
If the waste gate closes at engine speeds lower than shown on the chart
in figure 12A-7, the turbocharger performance is normal. If the waste
gate closes at engine speeds higher than shown in figure 12A-7, refer
to the trouble shooting chart in paragraph 12A-107.
(2) Note outside air temperature and RPM as manifold pressure starts to drop, which should be
in accordance with the chart in figure 12A-7.
(3) After noting temperature and RPM, increase engine speed 50 RPM to stabilize manifold pressure, with the waste gate modulating exhaust flow to control compressor output.

13-1. FUEL SYSTEM.
The fuel system as defined
by this manual includes all components up to and including the fuel line connecting to the engine driven
pump inlet. Engine mounted components are covered
in Section 12 or 12A.

13-2.

DESCRIPTION.

(THRU 21064535.)

The fuel

system is essentially a gravity-flow system from the

bay outlets to the selector valve and a pump augmented
system from the selector valve to the engine. The
fuel system is comprised of the wing bays, reservoirs,
selector valve, auxiliary fuel pump, fuel strainer,
and associated plumbing. The fuel bay outlets are
located at the inboard end of the bays with lines subsequently routed down the front and rear doorposts,
under the floorboard, to the reservoirs. The fuel
line from the lower forward corner of each bay to the
reservoir serves as a combination fuel feed and vapor
return line. Fuel bypasses the auxiliary pump when
the pump is not in operation. The bays are individu-

ally vented overboard through vent lines with a check

valve located at each wing tip. Beginning with T210,
21063661 and earlier aircraft modified by SK210-93
the following changes have been made. The fuel lines
from the firewall to the strainer and the strainer to
the tunnel fitting will be changed from aluminum to
stainless steel with insulating sleeving. The fuel hose
from the fuel pump to the check valve and from the
check valve to the firewall and fuel pump to the tunnel
fitting will be changed from nonsleeved hose to fire
sleeved hose. The check valve is also fire sleeved.

SHOP NOTES:

13-2

13-3. PRECAUTIONS. During maintenance on the
fuel system the following precautions should be observed:
a. Aircraft should be properly GROUNDED prior to
performing maintenance on the fuel system or components.
b. Drain all lines or hoses when disconnected, because residual fuel draining constitutes a fire hazard,

and accumulation of this drainage increases the haz-

ard.
c. Cap open lines and cover connections to prevent
entry of foreign material in the former case, and
prevent damage to threads in the latter.
NOTE
Use NS-40(RAS-4) (Snap-On-Tools Corp.,
Kenosha, Wisconsin), MIL-T-5544 (Thread
Compound, Antiseize, Graphite Petrolatum),
USP Petrolatum or engine oil as a thread
lubricant or to seal a leaking connection.

Apply sparingly to male threads only, omit-

ting first two to prevent entry into fuel system. Use only a fuel soluble lubricant on
fitting threads, and use NO compound on the
injection system.

The following procedure may be used to purge the
bay with argon or carbon dioxide.
a. Ground the aircraft to a suitable ground stake.
b. Set fuel selector valve handle in "OFF" posttion.
c. Drain all fuel from bay being repaired. (Observe
the precautions in paragraph 13-3.)
d. Remove access doors and insert hose to each
end of bay simultaneously.
e. Allow inert gas to flow into bay for several minutes (time dependent upon hose size, rate of flow,
etc.) to remove all fuel vapors.
Since argon or carbon dioxide are heavier than air,
these gases will remain in the bay during the repair.
The repair shall be made using non-sparking tools

edge of all riveted joints, joggles, bend reliefs, voids.
rivets or fasteners through the boundary of the bay
and any place that could produce a fuel leak. The fay
sealant need not be cured before the fillet seal is
applied, but the squeezed out sealant, to which the
fillet sealant is applied, must be free of dirt and contamination. Fillets laid on intersecting joints shall be
joined together to produce a continuous fillet.
Filler
sealant must be pressed into the joint, working out
all entrapped air. The best method of applying sealant is with an extrusion gun. Then work the sealant
into the joint with a small paddle, being careful to
eliminate all air bubbles.

NOTE

NOTE

Portable vapor detectors are available to
determine presence of explosive mixtures
and are calibrated for leaded fuel. These
detectors can be used to determine when
it is safe to make repairs.
13-10. FUEL BAY SEALANT. Two typesealants
are used in integral fuel bay construction. A pliable
type for access doors, and the rigid type for sealing
ribs and spars to the skin. Service Kit SK210-56C, seal
available through Cessna Supply Division, contains
these sealants with the proper ratio of acceleratorsNOTE

b. Vacuum thoroughly to remove all chips, filings,
and other foreign material from bay areas.
c. All surfaces and areas to be sealed shall be
thoroughly cleaned by wiping with a clean cloth
dampened with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), acetone
or similar solvent, and dried with a clean cloth prior
to solvent evaporation. Always pour the solvent on
the cloth. Never use contaminated solvent. The
cloth shall not be so saturated that dripping occurs.
13-13. SEALING FUEL LEAKS. First determine
the source of the fuel leak. Fuel can flow along a
seam or structure of the wing for several inches,

making the leak source difficult to find. A stained

area is an indication of the leak source. Fuel leaks
can be found by testing the complete bay as described
in paragraph 13-15. Another method of detecting the

source of a fuel leak is to remove access doors and
blow with an air nozzle from the inside of the bay in
the area of the leak while soap bubble solution is applied to the outside of the bay. After the leak source
has been found, proceed as follows:
a. Remove existing sealant in the area of the leak.
b. Clean the area and apply a fillet seal. Press
sealant into leaking area with a small paddle, working out all air bubbles

AUXILIARY FUEL PUMP.

13-31. DESCRIPTION. An electric auxiliary fuel
pump is located immediately forward of the left
fuel reservoir. An integral bypass and check valve
incorporated in the pump assembly permits fuel
flow through the pump even when inoperative but
prevents reverse flow. A separate overboard drain
line from the pump prevents entry of fuel into the
electric motor. in the event of pump internal
leakage. The auxiliary pump is used in engine
starting and in the event of engine-driven pump
malfunction.
13-32. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION.
a. Place fuel selector valve in "OFF" position.
b. Drain fuel from pump. lines and strainer with
quick-drain control.
c. Ensure master switch and pump switch are in
"OFF" position.
d. Remove pilot's seat, carpeting and plates at
left side of pedestal as necessary for access to
pump.
e. Disconnect and cap or plug all fuel lines and
electrical connections at pump. (Observe
precautions in paragraph 13-3.)
f. Loosen the two securing clamps and lift pump
out.
g. Reverse the preceding steps for installation.
Prior to reinstalling equipment removed for access.
place selector valve to "ON" position and check for
leaks and proper pump operation.
13-33. AUXILIARY FUEL PUMP CIRCUIT. The
auxiliary fuel pump switch is a yellow and red
split-rocker type switch. The yellow right half of
the switch is labeled "START," and its upper "ON"
position, is used for normal starting and minor
vapor purging during taxi. The red left half of the
switch is labeled "EMERG." and its upper "HI"
position is used in the event of an engine-driven
fuel pump failure during take-off or high power
operation. The "HI" position may also be used for
extreme vapor purging. With the right half of the
switch in the "ON" position, the pump operates at
one of two flow rates that are dependent upon the
setting of the throttle. With the throttle open to a
cruise setting, the pump operates at a high
capacity to supply sufficient fuel flow to maintain
flight. When the throttle is moved toward the
closed position (as during letdown, landing and
taxiing), the fuel pump flow rate is automatically
reduced, preventing an excessively rich mixture
during these periods of reduced engine speed.
Maximum fuel flow is produced when the left half
of the switch is held in the spring-loaded "HI"
position. In the "HI" position, an interlock within
the switch automatically trips the right half of the
switch to the "ON" position. When the springloaded left half of the switch is released, the right
manually returned to the OFF position. When the

13-16

Revision 2

engine-driven fuel pump is functioning and the
auxiliary fuel pump is placed in the "ON" position.
a fuel/air ratio considerably richer than best power
is produced unless the mixture is leaned. If the
auxiliary fuel pump switch is accidentally placed
in the "ON" position with the master switch "ON"
and the engine stopped. the intake manifolds will
be flooded. A throttle shaft-operated microswitch
adds a resistance to the high circuit to slow down
the pump when the throttle is retarded to prevent
an excessively rich mixture. Refer to paragraph
13-34 for rigging instructions.
13-34. RIGGING THROTTLE-OPERATED MICROSWITCHES. (Refer to figure 13-7.) These aircraft
are equipped with a throttle-operated microswitch
which slows down the electric fuel pump whenever
the throttle is retarded while the electric pump is
being used. The electric fuel pump microswitch
should slow down the pump as the throttle is
retarded to approximately 19 inches of mercury
manifold pressure (sea level aircraft) and 23 inches
of mercury manifold pressure (turbocharged
aircraft).
NOTE
These settings must be established during
ground run-up only. These values will
not apply in flight.
a. Start engine and set throttle to obtain 19
inches of mercury manifold pressure (sea level
aircraft) or 23 inches of mercury manifold pressure
(turbocharged aircraft).
b. Mark position of throttle control at instrument
panel and shut down engine.
c. Remove cover (1) and adjust cam (3) to
activate fuel pump switch (6) at throttle position
marked in step "b".
d. With mixture control in "IDLE CUT-OFF "

(Thru 21064535.)

13-38. DESCRIPTION. The fuel strainer is located
in the nose wheel well and is readily accessible
with the nose gear doors open. The strainer is
equipped with a quick-drain valve which provides
a means of draining trapped water and sediment
from the fuel system. The quick-drain control is
located adjacent to the oil dipstick.
NOTE
The fuel strainer can be disassembled,
cleaned and reassembled without
removing the assembly from the aircraft.
Beginning with T210, 21063661 thru

13-41. FUEL SYSTEM.
BEGINNING WITH 21064536
13-42. DESCRIPTION. The fuel system is essentially a gravity-flow system from the bay outlets to the
selector valve and a pump augmented system from
the selector valve to the engine. The fuel system is
comprised of wing bays, a selector valve, fuel
strainer, and associated plumbing. Fuel bag outlets
are located at the inboard end of the bags. A single
fuel supply line is routed down the rear doorposts to
the fuel selector valve. A fuel supply line, Interconnected with a vent line, and a separate drain line
are routed down the front doorposts. A combination
drain, and vent line is routed down the left, forward,
doorpost, from the vent crossover line to the reservoir. The fuel bays are vented by a crossover vent
line, wing tip vents, and vented fuel caps.
13-20

The upper segment of the three position (LEFT ON,
BOTH ON, RIGHT ON) fuel selector valve handles
fuel from the bays. The lower segment handles
vapor, along with returned and excess fuel from the
engine-driven fuel pump.
The reservoir accepts fuel from the selector valve,
bay drain and vent lines. The fuel flows from the
reservoir through a by-pass in the auxiliary fuel
pump (when the pump is not in operation) to the fuel
ON-OFF valve.
The fuel ON-OFF valve provides a means of stopping
fuel flow to the STRAINER and the engine driven fuel
pump. The fuel ON-OFF control is mounted on the
left side of the pedestal.
The fuel STRAINER, mounted on the firewall incorporates a remote drain valve. This valve, is mounted
on the lower, left, engine cowling. The drain val.-e
is activated by the fuel sampler cup.

14-2. DESCRIPTION. The aircraft is equipped
with an all-metal, constant-speed, governor-regulated propeller. The constant-speed propeller is
single- acting, in which engine oil pressure, boosted
and regulated by the governor is used to obtain the
correct blade pitch for the engine load. Engine lubricating oil is supplied to the power piston in the propeller hub through the crankshaft. The amount and
pressure of the oil supplied is controlled by the enginedriven governpr. An increase or decrease in throttle
setting or a change in aircraft attitude will affect the
balance which maintains a given RPM. If the throttle
is opened further or if aircraft speed is increased,
engine RPM will try to increase. The governor
senses this and directs oil pressure to the forward
side of the piston. The blades will be moved to a

higher pitch and engine speed will remain constant.
Conversely, if the throttle opening or the aircraft
speed is decreased, the engine RPM will try to decrease. The governor senses this and allows oil to
drain from the forward side of the piston. Spring
tension and centrifugal twisting moment will move
the blades to a lower pitch to maintain the selected
engine speed.
14-3. REPAIR. Metal propeller repair first involves
evaluating the damage and determining whether the
repair will be a major or minor one. Federal Aviation Regulations, Part 43 (FAR 43), and Federal
Aviation Agency, Advisory Circular No. 43.13 (FAA
AC No. 43. 13), define major and minor repairs. 31rerations and who may accomplish them. When .aicing repairs or alterations to a propeller FAR 43.
FAA AC No. 43.13 and the propeller manufacturer's
instructions must be observed.

McCauley Service Bulletin 137 and all revisions
and supplements thereto. Refer to Sections 12
and 12A for engine overhaul periods.
14-7. GOVERNOR.
14-8. DESCRIPTION. The propeller governor is a singleacting, centrifugal type, which boosts oil pressure
from the engine and directs it to the propeller where
the oil is used to increase blade pitch. A singleacting governor uses oil pressure to effect a pitch
change in one direction only; a pitch change in the
opposite direction results from a combination of
centrifugal twisting moment of rotating blades and
compressed springs. Oil pressure is boosted in the
governor by a gear type oil pump. A pilot valve,
flyweight and speeder spring act together to open
and close governor oil passages as required to
maintain a constant engine speed.
NOTE
Outward physical appearance of specific
governors is the same, but internal parts
determine whether it uses oil pressure to
increase or decrease blade pitch. The
propellers used on these aircraft require
governors which "sense" in a certain
manner. "Sensing" is determined by the
type pilot valve installed inside the
governor. Since the basic governor may be
sentto

ON MOST AIRPLANES, A TORQUE WRENCH
CANNOT BE FITTED DIRECTLY ON THE
PROPELLER MOUNTING NUT BECAUSE OF
THE LACK OF CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE
FLANGE AND ENGINE CASE. AN ADAPTER
MUST BE USED ON THE TORQUE WRENCH.
THE USE OF A TORQUE WRENCH WITH ANY
EXTENSION REQUIRES THE
FORM OF
TORQUE READING ON THE WRENCH TO BE
CHANGED TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT
TORQUE APPLIED AT THE NUT. TO OBTAIN
CORRECT RESULTS REFER TO THE

UTILITY SYSTEMS.

15-2. HEATING SYSTEM.

(See Figure 15-1.)

15-3. DESCRIPTION. On non-turbocharged aircraft, the heating system is comprised of the heat
exchange section of the left exhaust muffler, a heater valve, mounted on the left forward side of the
firewall, a duct across the aft side of the firewall,
a push-pull control on the instrument panel, and flexible ducts connecting the system. On aircraft with
turbocharged engines, the heating system consists of
an opening in the left side of the nose cap, an exhaust
shroud, a heater valve, mounted on the left forward
side of the firewall, to which is attached an adapter
and a tube axtending downward and overboard. The
system also includes a duct across the aft side of the
firewall, a push-pull control on the instrument panel,
and flexible ducts connecting the system.
15-4. HEATER OPERATION. On aircraftwith
non-turbocharged engines, ram air is ducted through
an engine baffle and the heat exchange section of the
left exhaust muffler, to the heater valve at the firewall. On aircraft with turbocharged engines, ram
air is ducted through an opening in the left side of the
nose cap, through an exhaust shroud, to the heater
valve at the firewall. On both models, heated air
flows from the heater valve into a duct across the aft
side of the firewall, where it is distributed into the
cabin. The heater valve, operated by a push-pull
control marked "CABIN HEAT", located on the instrument panel, regulates the volume of heated air
entering the system. Pulling the heater control full
out supplies maximum flow, and pushing it in gradually decreases flow, shutting off flow completely
completely
when the controlis pushed full in
15-5. TROUBLE SHOOTING. Most of the opertional troubles in the heating system are caused by
sticking or binding air valves and their controls,
damaged air ducting, or defects in the exhaust muffler. In most cases, valves or controls can be freed
by proper lubrication. Damaged or broken parts
should be repaired or replaced. When checking controls, be sure valves respond freely to control movement, that they move in the correct direction, and
that they move through their full range of travel and
seal properly. Check that hose are properly secured
and replace hose that are burned, frayed or crushed.
If fumes are detected in the cabin, a very thorough
inspection of the exhaust muffler should be accomplished. Refer to the applicable paragraph in Section
12 for the non-turbocharged engine exhaust system
inspection, or for the turbocharged engine, refer to
Section 12A. Since any holes or cracks may permit
exhaust fumes to enter the cabin, replacement of defective parts is imperative because fumes constitute
an extreme danger. Seal any gaps in heater ducts
across the firewall with Pro-Seal #700 (Coast ProSeal Co., Los Angeles, California) compound, or
equivalent compound.
15-6. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF COMPONENTS. Figures 15-1 and 15-2 may be used as a
guide for removal and installation of components of

the heater system. Cut replacement hose to length
and install in the original routing. Trim hose winding
shorter than the hose to allow hose clamps to be fitted.
Defective heater valves should be repaired or replaced.
Check for proper operation of valves and their controls after installation or repair.
15-7. DEFROSTING SYSTEM.

(See figure 15-1.)

15-8. DESCRIPTION. The system is composed of
a duct across the aft side of the firewall, a defroster
outlet, mounted in the left side of the cowl deck immediately aft of the windshield, a defroster control
knob on the instrument panel, and flexible ducting
connecting the system.
15-9. DEFROSTER OPERATION. Air from the duct
across the aft side of the firewall flows through a
flexible duct to the defroster outlet. The defroster
control operates a damper in the outlet to regulate
the amount of air deflected across the inside surface
of the windshield. The temperature and volume of
this air is controlled by the settings of the cabin
heating system control.
15-10. TROUBLE SHOOTING. Most of the operational troubles in the defrosting system are caused
by sticking or binding of the damper in the defroster
outlet or its control. Since the defrosting system
depends on proper operation of the cabin heating system, refer to paragraph 15-5 for trouble shooting the
heating and defrosting system.
15-11. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF COMPONENTS. Figure 15-1 and 15-2 may be used as a
guide for removal and installation of components of
the defrosting system. Cut replacement hose to length and install in the original routing. Trim hose winding shorter than the hose to allow hose clamps to be
fitted. A defective defroster outlet should be repaired
or replaced. Check for proper operation of defroster
outlet and its control after installation or repair.
15-12

VENTILATING SYSTEM.

(See figure 15-3.)

15-13. DESCRIPTION. The system is comprised of
an airscoop, mounted in the inboard leading edge of
each wing, outlet control valves, installed in overhead
consoles, located on the aircraft centerline, control
valves, located above each rear doorpost, two fresh
airscoop doors, one on each side of the fuselage, just
forward of the front seats, a control on the instrument
panel for each of these scoop doors, and flexible duc ting connecting the systems. On 1977 thru 1980
models, fixed inlet scoops are installed in the
lower forward cabin. The scoops are ducted to
the avionics equipment to aid in cooling, and under the cabin floor to help prevent exhaust fumes
from entering the cabin.
15-14. VENTILATING SYSTEM OPERATION. Air
received from scoops mounted in the inboard leading
edges of the wings is ducted to individually-controlled
control valves, two of which are mounted in each of

Revision 1

15-2A/(15-2B blank)

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
two overhead consoles and one mounted in a console
located above each rear door post. Each control
valve meters the incoming cabin ventilation air, and
provides an expansion chamber which reduces inlet
air noise. Filters at the air inlets are primarily
noise reduction filters. Air volume from the louvers in the outlet control valves is controlled by
knobs located on the end of each valve. Beginning
with 1982 models. outside air is routed from the wingmounted scoopsthrough valves in each wing root to
our lever-adjusted ventilators in the cabin. The leveradjusted ventilators replace the outlet control valves
and are located in the same area. Airflow from the

wing root valves is controlled by a lever in the overhead
console labeled: OVERHEAD AIR VENTS ON OFF.
Beginning with 1983 models without air conditioning,
the fresh air scoops and wing root valves are replaced
by ducts stopped withadjustable doors located on the

underside of each wing near the root. The adjustable
doors in the ducts are controlled by the lever labeled:
OVERHEAD AIR VENTS. Cabin ventilation is provided
by two fresh air scoop doors, one on each side of the
fuselage, Just forward of the front seats. The left scoop
door is operated by a knob on the instrument panel
labeled: CABIN AIR, and the right scoop door is controlled by a knob adjacent to the CABIN AIR knob
labeled: AUX CABIN AIR. Fresh air from the scoops
is routed to a duct running across the aft side of the
firewall, where it is distributed to the cabin. As long
as the CABIN HEAT knob is pushed full in, no heated
air can enter the firewall duct, however, as the CABIN
HEAT knob is gradually pulled out, more and more
heated air will blend with fresh air from the scoops.
Any ofthe knobs may be set to any desired position
to provide comfortable cabin temperatures.

15-15. TROUBLE SHOOTING. Most of the operational troubles in the ventilating system are caused
by sticking or binding of the lever in the inlet scoop
door or its control. The inner tube in the control
valve could also bind or stick. requring repair or replacement of the control valves. Check the filter elements in the airscoops in the leading edges of the
wings for obstructions. The elements -nay be removed
and cleaned or replaced. Since air passing through
the filters is omitted into the cabin. do not use a cleaning solution -which would contaminate cabin air. The
filters may be- removed to increase air flow. However
their removal. could cause a sligh increase in noise
level.
15-16. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF COMPONENTS. Figure 15-3 may be used as a guide for
removal and .astallation of components of the ventilating system. Cut replacement hose to length and install in the original routing. Trim hose winding shorter than the hose to allow hose clamps to be fitted. A
defective control valve should be repaired or replaced.
Check for proper operation of ventilating system controts after installation or repair.

DE-ICE AND ANTI-ICE SYSTEMS.

15-17A. WING AND HORIZONTAL STABILIZER
ONE-CYCLE DE-ICE SYSTEM. (Thru 21062968.)
15-18. DESCRIPTION. The de-ice system consists
of an engine-driven pneumatic pump, an annunciator
light to monitor system operation, a timer, control
valves, pneumatic de-icing boots, installed on the
leading edges of the wings and horizontal stabilizer
and the necessary hardware to complete the system.

CAUTIO N
Always allow sufficient ice build-up for efficient ice removal before actuating the de-ice
system. If de-ice system is actuated continuously, or before ice has reached sufficient
thickness, the ice will build up over the boots
instead of cracking off.
15-19. SYSTEM OPERATION. The boots expand
and contract, using pressure or vacuum from the
engine-driven vacuum pump. Normally, vacuum is
applied to all boots to hold them against the leading
edge surfaces. When a de-icing cycle is initiated,

the vacuum is removed, and a pressure is applied to
"blow up" the boots. The resulting change in contour
of the boot will break the ice accumulated on the
leading edges. The ice will then be removed by normal in-night air forces. Controls for the de-icing
system consist of a spring-loaded on-off rocker
switch on the left switch and control panel, a pressure indicator light on the upper left side of the instrument panel, and a 5-amp circuit breaker switch
on the left sidewall circuit breaker panel. The twoposition de-ice switch, labeled DE-ICE PRESS, is
spring-loaded to the normal off (lower) position.
When pushed to the ON (upper) position and released,
the system timer (located on the glove box) is energized which in turn activates one de-icing cycle.
Each time a cycle is desired, the switch must be
pushed to the ON position and released. The pressure
indicator light, labeled DE-ICE PRESSURE, should
come on within four seconds after the cycle is initiated and remain on for two or three seconds if the
system is operating properly.
15-20. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF DE-ICE
SYSTEM COMPONENTS. For removal and installation of de-ice system components, see figure 15-4.

vacuum to the boots when they are installed to help
smooth out wrinkles.
d. Place a straight line along the leading edge line

hoses to de-icer connections. Position centerline of
boot with leading edge line, using a clean, lint-free
cloth, heavily moistened with toluol, reactivate surface of cement on wing and the boot in small, spanwise areas approximately 6-inches wide. Avoid excessive rubbing of cement, which would remove it
from the surface of the wing. Utilize enough help to
hold boot steady during installation, and caution them
against handling cemented surfaces. Roll boot firmly
against leading edge, being careful not to trap any air
between boot and leading edge surface. Always roll
parallel to the inflatable tubes. Should the boot attach
"off course", pull it up immediately with a quick
motion, and reposition properly. Avoid twisting or
sharp bending of boot. Finally, roll the entire
surface of the boot parallel to tubes, applying pressure. Use the metal stitcher roller between tubes
and around connections. Should an air pocket be
encountered, carefully insert a hypodermic needle
and allow air to escape. Do not puncture the inflatable tubes at any time. Fill any gaps between
adjoining boots with GACO N-700-A Neoprene coating
(Gates Engineering Co., Wllmington, Delaware
19899). Apply a coat of the Neoprene coating along
trailing edge of boot to the surface of the skin to form
a neat, straight fillet.

15-26B. DSCRIPTION. The system consists of
pneumatically-operated boots, an engine-driven
pneumatic pump, an annunciator light to monitor
system operation, system controls and the hardware
necessary to complete the system.
15-26C. SYSTEM OPERATION. The boots expand
and contract, using pressure or vacuum from the
engine-driven vacuum pump. Normally, vacuum is
applied to all boots to hold them against the leading
edge surfaces. When a de-icing cycle is initiated,
the vacuum is removed and a pressure is applied to
"blow up," the boots. Ice on the boots will then be
removed by normal in-flight air forces. Controls
for the system consist of a spring-loaded on-off
rocker switch on the left switch and control panel, a
pressure indicator light on the upper left side of the
instrument panel, and a 5-amp "pull-off" type circuit
breaker on the left sidewall circuit breaker paneL
The two-position de-icing switch, labeled DE-ICE
PRESS, is spring-loaded to the normal off (lower)
position. When pushed to the ON (upper) position and
released, it will activate one de-icing cycle. Each
time a cycle is desired, the switch must be pushed to
the ON position and released. If necessary, the
system can be stopped at any point in the cycle (de-

flating the boots) by pulling out the circuit breaker
labeled WING, DE-ICE. During a normal de-icing
cycle, the boots will inflate according to the following
sequence: first, the horizontal stabilizer boots will
inflate for approximately six seconds, then the inboard boots inflate for the next six seconds, followed
by the outboard wing boots for another six seconds.
The total time required for one cycle is approximately
18 seconds. The pressure indicator light, labeled
DE-ICE PRESSURE, should illuminate when the horizontal stabilizer boots reach proper operating pressure. At lower altitudes, it should come on within
one to two seconds after the cycle is initiated and remain on for approximately 17 seconds if the system
is operating properly. At higher altitudes, the light
will come on initially within three seconds and will go
off for one to three seconds during sequencing. The
system may be recycled six seconds after the light
goes out. The absence of illumination during any one
of the three sequences of a cycle indicates insufficient
pressure for proper boot inflation and effective deicing ability. An ice detector light is also installed
to facilitate detection of wing ice at night or during
reduced visibility. The ice detector light system
consists of a light installed on the left side of the
cowl deck forward of the windshield which is positioned to illuminate the leading edge of the wing,
and a rocker-type switch, labeled DE-ICE LIGHT,
located on the left switch and control panel.

15-26G. DESCRIPTION. The system consists of an
engine-driven vacuum pump, pressure control valve,

relief valve adjustment should be maintained in accordance with procedures outlined in the applicable
paragraph in Section 16 of this manual. If the vacuum
relief valve is set too low, suction to the gyros will
drop momentarily during the boot inflation cycle.
This suction variation can be corrected with proper
vacuum relief valve adjustment. The standard vacuum pump is replaced with a larger capacity vacuum

vacuum relief valve, flow control valves, pressure

pump. Beginning with 1982 models dual vacuum

switch, timer and boots mounted on the leading edge
of each wing, horizontal stabilizer and the vertical
fin. The aircraft vacuum system components also
serve the de-ice vacuum system, and the vacuum

pumps and dual control valves are components of the
system. An ice detector light is incorporated in the
left side of the cowl deck below the windshield to aid
in checking for ice formations during night operation.

A few aircraft which are not certified for
flight into known icing conditions may have
this system installed.

c. Preflight System Check:
1. With vacuum relief valve(s) adjusted and engine running from 2200 to 2500 rpm, check both
buttons on the suction gage are retracted out of sight
and vacuum is normal.
2. Place de-ice pressure switch on and release.
3. Check that de-ice pressure light comes on
within one second, remains on for 18 seconds, then
off.
4. Check boots for inflation during 18 second
cycle as follows: first six seconds tail section boots,
then inboard wing boots for next six seconds, finally
the outboard wing boots inflate for six seconds completing one cycle.
5. The absence of or slow illumination of the
de-ice pressure light during any one of the three
sequences of a cycle indicates insufficient pressure
for proper system operation,
d. Timer Check:
1. Refer to paragraph 15-26U for timer check.
e. Air Pressure Check (See figure 15-5E):
NOTE
This check may be performed in the engine

15-26W. PROPELLER ANTI-ICE BOOTS (KNOWN
ICING EQUIPMENT). Aircraft certified for night
into known icing conditions must have propeller antiice boots installed and operational. Refer to paragraph 15-27 for this installation.
15-26X. WINDSHIELD ANTI-ICE PANEL (KNOWN
ICING EQUIPMENT). Aircraft certified for flight
into known icing conditions must have a windshield
anti-ice panel installed and operational. Refer to
paragraph 15-32D for this installation.

Beginning with 1983 models, separate switches,
labeled PITOT HEAT and STALL HEAT, on the left
switch and control panel operate the heaters. Two
10-amp "push-to-reset" type circuit breakers,
labeled PITOT HEAT and STALL HEAT, on the left
sidewall circuit breaker panel protect the systems.
When the aircraft is on the ground, a resistor is
introduced into the stall warning heater circuit by
the nose wheel squat switch in order to prevent oveheating.

15-26A. DESCRIPTION. A special pitot tube with a
larger inlet and a higher capacity heating element
and a higher capacity heated stall warning transducer
are installed in the left wing on aircraft certified for
flight into known icing conditions. These systems
assure proper airspeed indications and stall warning
in the event icing conditions are encountered. They
are designed to prevent ice formation rather than
remove it once formed. Thru 1982 models both
systems are controlled by a rocker switch, labeled
PITOT HEAT, on the left switch and control panel.

Section 17.
15-26AF.

CONTROL SURFACE DISCHARGERS.

15-26AG. DESCRIPTION. Wick type static dischargers may be installed on the trailing edge surfaces of
the ailerons, elevators and rudder of the aircraft.
One type discharger is fabricated with the wick and
base combined into an integral unit; in the other type,
the wick is attached to the base by a threaded fitting,
and may be replaced without removing the base from
the aircraft. The installation of static dischargers
reduces the build-up of static electricity on the airframe as a consequence of flying through haze, dust,
rain, snow or ice crystals. In some cases, if dischargers are not installed or not functioning as a
result of age or repeated exposure static electricity,
static build-up can result in the loss of usable radio
signals on all communication and navigation equipment. Whenever static dischargers are installed,
replaced, and at regular intervals during their service life, resistance checks should be performed to
determine their effectiveness in reducing static
build-up.

15-34

Revision 2

15-26AH. RESISTANCE CHECK. Since static dischargers lose their effectiveness with age and exposure to static electricity, they should be checked
with a 500 to 1000 volt capacity megohmmeter every
500 hours or annually; whichever occurs first. Megohmmeters may be purchased from the following
source:
James G. Biddle Co.
Plymouth Meeting, PA 19462
NOTE
A GOOD aircraft ground must be established
in order to perform RELIABLE resistance
checks on the control surface dischargers.
Perform the following resistance checks on each control surface discharger and replace those which do
not conform to the resistance requirements.
a. If the wick and base of the discharger are an
integral unit, the resistance from the base of the
discharger to a good aircraft ground should check
2. 5 milliohms maximum.
b. If the wick can be separated from the base, the
resistance from the base to a good aircraft ground
should check 1.0 ohm maximum.
c. Connect the EARTH terminal to the base of the
discharger and check the resistance at the tip of the
wick. The resistance should check 1 to 100 megohms
for both types of dischargers.

WARNING
So not bend the wick during the preceding
check, since wicks have a higher resistance
when bent.

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
15-27. PROPELLER ANTI-ICE SYSTEM. The system is of an electrothermal type, consisting of
electrically-heated de-ice boots bonded to each
propeller blade, a slip ring assembly for power
distribution to the propeller de-ice boots, a brush
block assembly to transfer electrical power to the
rotating slip ring, and a timer to cycle electrical
power to the de-ice boots in proper sequence. A
rocker switch labeled PROP A/ICE, located on the
pilot's lower left-hand panel, controls the propeller
de-ice system. A circuit breaker labeled PROP
A/ICE, located in the left circuit breaker panel,
protects the propeller de-ice system. A propeller
de-ice ammeter, located on the upper left instrument
panel, indicates amperage for the propeller de-ice
system.
The de-ice system applies heat to the surfaces of the
propeller blades where ice would normally adhere.
This heat, plus centrifugal force and the blast from
the airstream, removes accumulated ice. Each deice boot has two separate electrothermal heating ele15-27A.

TROUBLE SHOOTING ---

ments, and inboard and an outboard section. Each
boot has three leads extending from a tab at the bottom of the boot. Each electrical lead is identified by
a letter. The letter "G" stands for ground. The
letter 'T' stands for inboard, and the letter "O" stand
for outboard. When the PROP A/ICE switch is turned
on, the timer provides power through the brush block
and slip ring to the outboard element of the propeller
for approximately 20 seconds ±1 second. The timer
then switches power to the inboard element of the
propeller for approximately 20 seconds *1 second.
The complete cycle is then repeated. This outboardinboard sequence is very important since the loosened
ice, through centrifugal force, moves outboard. Heat
ing may begin at any phase in the cycle, depending on
timer position when the switch was turned off from
previous use. Ground checkout of the system is permitted with the engine not running. Propeller remova
is necessary before propeller de-ice system components, except for the brush block assembly, timer,
ammeter, circuit breaker and switch can be removed
or installed.

15-32A. WINDSHIELD ANTI-ICE PANEL (REMOVABLE.) (See figure 15-7B.)
15-32B. DESCRIPTION. Thru 1977 models, thepanel
is constructed of two sheets of plate glass covering a
layer of vinyl. Imbedded in the vinyl is a fine resis-

tance wire which provides the heat for windshield deicing. The lower edge of the panel is mounted on the
deck skin just forward of the windshield. The upper
end of the panel is supported by a rubber bumper
which holds the panel off the windshield. The lower
mounting bracket is hinged for easy cleaning between
the panel and windshield. The hinge pins are spring
loaded so the panel may be easily removed. Power
to the windshield panel is provided through a plug located in a housing assembly just left of the lower support bracket. A drain tube is provided for the housing assembly also a plug button is provided, which is
painted the same color as the deck skin, to plug connector hole in the deck skin when the anti-ice assembly is removed. A circuit breaker switch located on
the instrument panel is a off-on switch and a circuit
breaker to protect the system. Beginning with 1978
models the panel extends the full height of the windshield. The upper and lower ends of the panel are
held in place by retainers and screws. The system
is controlled by a rocker switch on the instrument
panel which connects power to the controller from a
15 amp circuit breaker on the bus bar. The controller is mounted on the glove box. Power is also fed
from the circuit breaker to a normally open relay,
also mounted on the glove box. The controller senses
the temperature of the panel and closes which feeds
power to the relay coil, closing the relay and power
is fed to the panel. When not in use the panel may be
removed and stowed in the aircraft.
15-32C. REMOVABLE AND INSTALLATION. (See
figure 15-7B.) Beginning with 1978 Models, when
the panel is removed and stowed, replace the AN
509-8R16 screws with AN509-8R12 screws. Also,
replace cover (8) with cover (11) (Figure 15-7B,
sheet 3.)
15-32D. HEATED WINDSHIELD PANEL (FIXED.)
15-32E. DESCRIPTION. An optional heated panel
is provided to prevent ice formation on the windshield.

15-42. MASKS AND HOSE.
a. Check oxygen masks for fabric cracks and rough
face seals. If the mask is a full-faced model, inspect glass or plastic for cleanliness and state of
repair.
b. Flex the mask hose gently over its entirety and
check for evidence of deterioration or dirt.
c. Examine mask and hose storage compartment
for cleanliness and general condition.
15-43. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING.
a. Clean and disinfect mask assemblies after use,
as appropriate.
NOTE
Use care to avoid damaging microphone
assembly while cleaning and sterilizing.
b. Wash mask with a mild soap solution and rinse
it with clear water.
c. To sterilize, swab mask thoroughly with a
gauze or sponge soaked in a water/merthiolate solution. This solution should contain 1/5 teaspoon of
merthiolate per one quart of water. Wipe the mask
with a clean cloth and let air dry.
d. Observe that each mask breathing tube end is
free of nicks and that the tube end will slip into the
cabin oxygen receptacle with ease and will not leak.
e. If a mask assembly is defective (leaks, does not
allow breathing or contains a defective microphone)
it is advisable to return the mask assembly to the
manufacturer or a repair station.

Revision 3

Replace hose if it shows-evidence of deteriof.
ration.
g. Hose may be cleaned in the same manner as the
mask.
15-44. SYSTEM PURGING. Whenever components
have been removed and reinstalled or replaced, it is
advisable to purge the system. Charge oxygen system in accordance with procedures outlined in paragraph 15-47. Plug masks into all outlets and turn
the pilot's control to ON position and purge system
by allowing oxygen to flow for at least 10 minutes.
Smell oxygen flowing from outlets and continue to
purge until system is odorless. Refill cylinders as
required during and after purging.
15-45. FUNCTIONAL TESTING. Whenever the regulator and cylinder assembly has been replaced or
overhauled, perform the following flow and internal
leakage tests to check that the system functions properly.
a. Fully charge oxygen system in accordance with
procedures outlined in paragraph 15-47.
b. Disconnect line and fitting assembly from pilot's mask and line assembly. Insert outlet end of
line and fitting assembly into cabin outlet and attach
opposite end of line to a pressure gage (gage should
be calibrated in one-pound increments from 0 to 100
PSI). Place control lever in ON position. Gage
pressure should read 70*10 PSI.
c. Insert mask and line assemblies into all remaining cabin outlets. With oxygen flowing from all
outlets, test gage pressure should still be 70*10 PSI.

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
d. Place oxygen control lever in OFF position and
allow test gage pressure to fall to 0 PSL Remove
all adapter assemblies except the one with the pressure gage. The pressure must not rise above 0 PSI
when observed for one minute. Remove pressure
gage and adapter from oxygen outlet.

CAUTION
A cylinder which is completely empty may
well be contaminated. The regulator and
cylinder assembly must then be disassembled, inspected and cleaned by an FAA
approved facility, before filling. Contamination, as used here, means dirt, dust
or any other foreign material, as well as
ordinary air in large quantities. If a gage
line or filler line is disconnected and the
fittings capped immediately, the cylinder
will not become contaminated unless temperature variation has created a suction
within the cylinder. Ordinary air contains
water vapor which could condense and
freeze. Since there are very small orifices
in the system, it is very important that
this condition not be allowed to occur.

NOTE
If pressures specified in the foregoing procedures are not obtained, the oxygen regulator is not operating properly. Remove
and replace cylinder-regulator assembly
with another unit and repeat test procedure.
e. Connect mask and line assemblies to each cabin
outlet and check each mask for proper operation.
f. Check pilot's mask microphone and control
wheel switch for proper operation. After checking,
return all masks to mask case.
g. Recharge oxygen system in accordance with
procedures outlined in paragraph 15-47.
15-46. SYSTEM LEAK TEST. When oxygen is being
lost from a system through leakage, a sequence of
steps may be necessary to locate the opening. Leakage may often be detected by listening for the distinct hissing of escaping gas. If this check proves
negative, it will be necessary to soap-test all lines
and connections with a castile soap and water solution or specially compounded leak-test material.
Make the solution thick enough to adhere to the contours of the fittings. At the completion of the leakage test, remove all traces of the leak detector or
soap and water solution.
CAUTION

BE SURE TO GROUND AIRCRAFT AND
GROUND SERVICING EQUIPMENT BEFORE CHARGING OXYGEN SYSTEM.
a. Do not attempt to charge oxygen cylinders if
servicing equipment fittings or filler valve are
corroded or contaminated. If in doubt, clean with
stabilized trichlorethylene and let air dry. Do not
allow solvent to enter any internal parts.
b. If cylinder is completely empty, do not charge,
as the cylinder must then be removed, inspected
and cleaned.

c. Connect cylinder valve outlet or outside filler
valve to manifold or portable oxygen cascade.
d. Slowly open valve on cascade cylinder or manifold with lowest pressure, as noted on pressure gage,
allow pressure to equalize, then close cascade cylinder
valve.
e. Repeat this procedure, using a progressively
higher pressure cascade cylinder, until system has
been charged to the pressure indicated in the chart
immediately following step "f" of this paragraph.
f. Ambient temperature listed in the chart is the
air temperature in the area where the system is to
be chrged Filling pressure refers to the pressure to which aircraft cylinders should be filled
sure to which aircraft cylinders should be filled.
This table gives approximations only and assumes
a rise in temperature of approximately 25°F. due
heat of compression. This table also assumes
the aircraft cylinders will be filled as quickly as possible and that they will only be cooled by ambient
air; no water bath or other means of cooling be used.
Example: If ambient temperature is 70°F., fill
aircraft cylinders to approximately 1, 975 psi or as
close to this pressure as the gage may read. Upon
cooling, cylinders should have approximately 1, 850
pressure.

determine malfunctions and correct them, up to the
defective instrument itself, at which point an instrument technician should be called in. Some instruments, such as fuel quantity and oil pressure gages,
are so simple and inexpensive, repairs usually will
be more costly than a new instrument. On the other
hand, aneroid and gyro instruments usually are well
worth repairing. The words "replace instrument"
in the text, therefore, should be taken only in the
sense of physical replacement in the aircraft. Whether replacement is to be with a new instrument, an
exchange one, or the original instrument is to be repaired must be decided on basis of individual circumstances.
16-3.

INSTRUMENT PANEL.

(Refer to figure 16-1.)

16-4. DESCRIPTION. The instrument panel assembly consists of a stationary panel, a removable flight
instrument panel and a shock-mounted panel. The
stationary panel, containing fuel and engine instruments is secured to the engine mount stringers and a
forward fuselage bulkhead. The removable panel,
containing flight instruments such as airspeed, vertical speed and altimeter is secured to the stationary
panel with screws. The shock-mounted panel, containing major flight instruments such as the horizontal and directional gyros is secured to the removable
panel with rubber shock- mounted assemblies. Most
of the instruments are screw mounted on the panel

(Refer to figure 16-1.)

16-8. REMOVAL. Most instruments are secured to
the panel with screws inserted through the panel face,
under the decorative cover. To remove an instrument,
remove decorative cover, disconnect wiring or plumbing to instrument, remove mounting screws and take
instrument out from behind, or in some'cases, from
front of panel. Instrument clusters are installed as
units and are secured by a screw at each end. A
cluster must be removed from the forward side of the
stationary panel to replace an individual gage. In all
cases when an instrument is removed, disconnected
lines or wires should be protected. Cap open lines
and cover pressure connections on instrument to prevent thread damage and entrance of foreign matter.
Wire terminals should be insulated or tied up to prevent accidental grounding or short-circuiting.
16-9. INSTALLATION. Generally, installation procedure is the reverse of removal procedure. Ensure
mounting screw nuts are tightened firmly, but do not
over-tighten, particularly on instruments having
plastic cases. The same rule applies to connecting
plumbing and wiring.

the system and produce a partial obstruction. To
clear the line, disconnect it at the airspeed ndicator.
Using low pressure air, blow from the indicator end
of line toward the pitot tube.
Like the pitot lines, static pressure lines must be
kept clear and connections tight. Static source sumps
collect moisture and keeps system clear. However,
when necessary, disconnect static line at first instrument to which it is connected, then blow the line clear
with low pressure air.

fittings to connect the lines together so the altimeter
is the only instrument still connected into the static

j. Repeat the leakage test to check whether the
static pressure system or the bypassed instruments
are the cause of leakage. If the instruments are at
fault, they must be repaired by an "appropriately
rated repair station" or replaced. If the static pressure system is at fault, use the following procedure
to locate leakage.

CAUTION
Never blow through pitot or static lines toward
instruments. Insure that (avionics) altitude sensor line is disconnected from static lines before
blowing out lines, or damage to sensor may occur.
NOTE
On aircraft equipped with an alternate static
source, use the same procedure, opening
the alternate static source valve momentarily
to clear line, then close valve and clear the
remainder of system.
Check all static pressure line connections for tightness. If hose or hose connections are used, check
them for general condition and clamps for security.

16-16. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF COMPONENTS. (Refer to figure 16-2). To remove the
pitot mast, remove the four mounting screws on the
side of connector (19) and pull mast out of connector
far enough to disconnect pitot line (5). Electrical
connections to the heater assembly (if installed) may
be disconnected through the wing access opening just
inboard of mast. Pitot and static lines are removed

required. Installation of tubing will be simpler if a
guide wire is drawn in as tubing is removed from
wing. The tubing may be removed intact by drawing
it out through cabin and right door. When replacing
components of pitot and static pressure systems, use
anti-seize compound sparingly on male threads on
both metal and plastic connections. Avoid excess
compound which might enter lines. Tighten connections firmly, but avoid overtightening and distorting
fittings. If twisting of plastic tubing is encountered
when tightening fittings, VV-236 (USP Petrolatum),
may be applied sparingly between tubing and fittings.

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES.
NOTE

When replacing a vacuum system component,
ensure all connections are made correctly to
avoid damage to gyro system. When a component is removed, cap off and identify all
open lines, hoses, and fittings to prevent dirt
from entering system, and to ensure proper
reinstallation. Upon component replacement,
Check all hoses carefully to be sure they are
clean and free of debris, oil, solvent, collapsed inner liners, and external damage.
Replace old, hard, cracked, or brittle hoses,
particularly on pump inlet, to avoid possible
pump damage. On vacuum pump, where hose
clearance is tight, making it difficult to reinstall hoses, apply a light film of petrolatum
to the fitting. Install hoses by pushing them
straight on, and do not wiggle hoses from side
to side as this could cause particles to be cut
from inside of hose, allowing particles to
enter system.

CAUTION
Do not use teflon tape, pipe dope, or thread
lubricants of any type on fitting threads, and
avoid over-tightening of connections. All
filters in vacuum system must be changed
when installing a new pump. Failure to do
so will void pump warranty. DO NOT CONNECT A PUMP BACKWARDS since the
manifold check valves provide no pressure
relief, the pump will be destroyed within a
matter of seconds after starting the engine.

16-28A. REMOVAL OF VACUUM PUMP.
a. Remove upper engine cowling in accordance with
procedures in Sections 12 of 12A.
b. Disconnect, cap off and identify hose on inlet
side of vacuum pump.
c. Identify and disconnect hose on outlet side of
vacuum pump.
d. Remove nuts, lockwashers, and flat washers
securing vacuum pump to engine.
e. Remove vacuum pump from mounting studs on
engine.
f. Remove elbow from pump and retain if it is reusable.
NOTE
Discard any twisted fittings or nuts with
rounded corners.
16-28B. MOUNTING PAD INSPECTION.
a. Check condition of the AND 20000 pad seal If
the seal shows any signs of oil leakage, replace the
seal. Replace seal if there is any doubt as to its
serviceability.
16-28C. INSTALLATION OF VACUUM PUMP.
a. Before installing a new vacuum pump purge all
lines in the system to remove carbon particles or
pump components that may have been deposited in
the lines by a previous pump.
b. Consult the applicable Parts Catalog. the pump
vendor's application list, or the PMA label on the
pump box to verify that the pump is the correct model
for the engine and/or system.
NOTE
Before installing vacuum pump on engine.

OIL TEMPERATURE GAGE.

16-45. DESCRIPTION. On some airplanes, the oil
temperature gage is a Bourdon tube type pressure
instrument connected by armored capillary tubing to a
temperature bulb in the engine. The temperature bulb,
capillary tube, and gage are filled with fluid and sealed.
Expansion and contraction of fluid in the bulb with
temperature changes operates the gage. Checking
capillary tube for damage and fittings for security is the
only maintenance required. Since the tube's inside
diameter is small, small dents and kinks, which would
be acceptable in larger tubing, may partially or
completely close off the capillary, making the gage
inoperative. Some airplanes are equipped with gages
that are electrically actuated and are not adjustable.
Refer to Table 1 on page 16-22A when trouble shooting
the oil temperature gage.

graduated in pounds/gallons are located in the instrument
cluster. These electromagnetic type indicators are used in
conjunction with a control monitor and capacitance type
sensing units. Refer to paragraph 16-8 for removal and
installation of indicators.
16-48. SENDING UNITS. Two fuel quantity sending
units are located in each fuel bay. These sending units are
basically tubular capacitors with two electrodes fixed in
one position. Any change in fuel quantity between full and
empty produces a corresponding change in the capacitance
of the electrodes. These changes in capacitance are
amplified by the control monitor and actuates the fuel
quantity indicators.

17-2. GENERAL. This section contains service information necessary to maintain the Aircraft Electrical Power Supply System, Battery and External
Power Supply System, Alternator Power System, Aircraft Lighting System, Pitot Heater, Stall Warning,
Cigar Lighter, and Electrical Load Analysis.
17-3.

ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM.

17-4. DESCRIPTION. Energy for the aircraft is
supplied by a 28- volt, direct-current, single wire,
negative ground electrical system. A 24-volt battery
supplies power for starting and furnishes a reserve
in event of alternator failure. An alternator is the
normal source of power during flight and maintains
a battery charge controlled by a voltage regulator,
An external power source receptacle may be installed to supplement the battery alternator system for
starting and ground operation.
17-5. SPLIT BUS BAR.
17-6. DESCRIPTION. Electrical power is supplied
through two bus bars. Thru 1977 Models one bus bar
is located on the lower left hand side of the instrument
panel. This bus bar supplies power to the electrical
equipment. The other bus bar powers the electronic
equipment, and is located on the left hand cabin side
forward of the cabin door. Beginning with 1978 Models
both bus bars are located on the cabin side forward
of the left hand door. A avionics master switch is installed on the electronic bus bar to prevent transient
voltages from damaging the semiconductor circuitary
in the electronic installations.
17-7. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION. (Refer to

17-8.

MASTER SWITCH.

17-9. DESCRIPTION. The operation of the battery
and alternator systems is controlled by a master
switch. The switch is an interlocking split rocker
with the battery mode on the right-hand side and the
alternator mode on the left-hand side. This arrangement allows the battery to be on the line without the
alternator, however, operation of the alternator without the battery on the line is not possible. The switch
is labeled "BAT" and "ALT" below the switch and is
located on the left-hand side of the switch panel.
17-10. AMMETER.
17-11. DESCRIPTION. The ammeter is connected
between the battery and the aircraft bus. The meter
indicates the amount of current flowing either to or
from the battery. With a low battery and the engine
operating at cruise speed the ammeter will show the
full alternator output when all electrical equipment is
off. When the battery is fully charged and cruise
RPM is maintained with all electrical equipment off,
the ammeter will show a minimum charging rate.
17-12. BATTERY POWER SYSTEM.
17-13. BATTERY.
17-14. DESCRIPTION. The battery is 24 volts and
thru 21062273 a 14 ampere-hour capacity battery is

d. To install a battery, reverse this procedure.
17-17. CLEANING THE BATTERY. For maximum
efficiency, the battery and connections should be kept
clean at all times.
a. Remove the battery in accordance with preceding paragraph.
b. Tighten battery cell filler caps to prevent the
cleaning solution from entering the cells.
c. Wipe battery cable ends, battery terminals and
entire surface of the battery with a clean cloth moistened with a solution of bicarbonate of soda (baking
soda) and water.
d. Rinse with clear water, wipe off excess water
and allow battery to dry.
e. Brighten up cable ends and battery terminals
with emery cloth or a wire brush.
f. Install the battery according to the preceding
paragraph.
g. Coat the battery terminals and the cable ends
with petroleum jelly.
17-18. ADDING ELECTROLYTE OR WATER TO
THE BATTERY. A battery being charged and discharged with use will decompose the water from the
electrolyte by electrolysis. When the water is decomposed, hydrogen and oxygen gases are formed
which escape into the atmosphere through the battery
vent system. The acid in the solution chemically
combines with the plates of the battery during discharge or is suspended in the electrolyte solution
during charge. Unless the electrolyte has been
spilled from a battery, acid should not be added to
the solution. The water will decompose into gases
and should be replaced regularly. Add distilled
water as necessary to maintain the electrolyte level,
(thru 21062273 the 12-GCAB-9 battery) 3/8 inch
above separators, (beginning with 21062274 the
G-240 and G-242 batteries) to the bottom of split
ring. When "dry charged" batteries are put into
service, fill as directed with electrolyte. However
as the electrolyte level falls below normal with use
add only distilled water to maintain the proper level.
The battery electrolyte contains approximately 25%
sulphuric acid by volume. Any change in this
volume will hamper the proper operation of the
battery.
CAUTION
Do not add any type of "battery rejuvenator"

to the electrolyte. When acid has been
spilled from a battery, the acid balance may be
adjusted by following instructions published
by the Association of American Battery
Manufacturers.
17-19. TESTING THE BATTERY. The specific
gravity check method of testing the battery is preferred when the condition of the battery is in a
questionable state-of-charge. However, when the
aircraft has been operated for a period of time with
an alternator output voltage which is known to be
correct, the question of battery capability may be
answered more correctly with a load type tester. If
testing the battery is deemed necessary, the specific
gravity should be checked first and compared with
the following chart.

NOTE
All readings shown are for an electrolyte

temperatures the readings will be slightly
lower. For cooler temperatures the readings
will be slightly higher. Some hydrometers
have a built-in temperature compensation
chart and a thermometer. If this type tester
is used, disregard this chart.
If the specific gravity reading indicates the battery
is not fully charged the battery should be charged.
The charging rate for the 12-GCAB-9 battery is
2 amps to start and finish at 1 amp, on the G-240
battery, 2 amps and on the G-242 battery, 3 amps.
17-20. CHARGING THE BATTERY. When the battery is to be charged, the level of electrolyte should
be checked and adjusted by adding distilled water to
cover the tops of the internal battery plates. The
battery cables and connections should be clean.
Remove the battery from the aircraft and place
in a well ventilated area for charging.

WARNING
When a battery is charging, hydrogen and
oxygen gases are generated. Accumulation
of these gases can create a hazardous explosive condition. Always keep sparks and
open flame away from the battery. Allow
unrestricted ventilation of the battery area
during charging.
The main points of consideration during a battery
charge are excessive battery temperature and violent
gassing. Under a reasonable rate of charge, the battery
temperature should not rise over 115°F (46°C) (see
paragraph 17-19), nor should gassing be so violent that
acid is blown from the vents.

BATTERY BOX.

17-22. DESCRIPTION. The battery is completely
enclosed in a box which is painted with acid proof
paint. The box has a vent tube which protrudes
through the bottom of the aircraft allowing battery
gases and spilled electrolyte to escape. The battery
box is riveted to the left forward side of the firewall.
17-23. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION. (Refer to
figure 17-2.) The battery box is riveted to the firewall.
The rivets must be drilled out to remove the box. When
a battery box is installed and riveted into place, all
rivets and scratches inside the box should be painted
with acid-proof lacquer, available from Pratt and
Lambert United - Performance Coatings Division, P. O.
Box 2153, Wichita, KS 67201.
17-24. MAINTENANCE. The battery box should be
inspected and cleaned periodically. The box and
cover should be cleaned with a strong solution of
bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and water. Hard
deposits may be removed with a wire brush. When
all corrosive deposits have been removed from the
box, flush it thoroughly with clean water.

WARNING
Do not allow acid deposits to come in contact
with skin or clothing. Serious acid burns
may result unless the affected area is washed
immediately with soap and water. Clothing
will be ruined upon contact with battery acid.
Inspect the cleaned box and cover for physical damage
and for areas lacking proper acid proofing. A badly
damaged or corroded box should be replaced. If the box
or lid require acid proofing, paint the area with acidproof black lacquer, available from Pratt and Lambert
United - Performance Coatings Division, P. O. Box 2153,
Wichita, KS 67201.
17-25. BATTERY CONTACTOR.
17-26. DESCRIPTION. The battery contactor is
bolted to the firewall below the battery box. The contactor is a solenoid plunger type, which is actuated
by turning the master switch on. When the master
switch is off, the battery is disconnected from the
electrical system. A silicon diode is used to eliminate spiking of the transistorized radio equipment
The cathode (+) terminal of the diode connects to the
battery terminal of the battery contactor. The anode
(-) terminal of the diode connects to the same terminal of the diode connects to the same terminal on the
contactor as the master switch wire. This places the
diode directly across the contactor solenoid coil so
that inductive spikes originating in the coil are clipped
when the master switch is opened. (Refer to figure

17-2).

17-28. BATTERY CONTACTOR CLOSING CIRCUIT.
(Refer to figure 17-3). This circuit consists of a 5amp fuse, a resistor and a diode mounted on the
ground service receptacle bracket. This serves to
shunt a small charge around the battery contactor so
that ground power may be used to close the contactor
when the battery is too low to energize the contactor

by itself.
17-29. GROUND SERVICE RECEPTACLE.
17-30. DESCRIPTION. A ground service receptacle
is installed to permit the use of external power for
cold weather starting or when performing lengthy
electrical maintenance. A reverse polarity protection system is utilized whereby ground power must
pass through an external power contactor to be connected to the bus. A silicon junction diode is connected in series with the coil on the external power contactor so that if the ground power source is inadvertently connected with a reversed polarity, the external power contactor will not close. This feature
protects the diodes in the alternator, and other semiconductor devices used in the aircraft, from possible
reverse polarity damage.
NOTE
Maintenance of the electronic installations
cannot be performed when using external
power. Application of external power opens
the relay supplying voltage to the electronics
bus. For lengthy ground testing of electronic
systems, connect a well regulated and filtered
power supply directly to the battery side of the
battery contactor. Adjust the supply for 28
volts and close the master switch.
NOTE
When using ground power to start aircraft, close
the master witch before removing ground power
plug. This ill ensure closure of battery contactor and excitaton of the alterator field.
CAUTION
Failure to observe polarity when connecting
an external power source directly to the bat-

tery or directly to the battery side of the bat-

17-27. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION. (Referto

ALTERNATOR POWER SYSTEM.

17-34. DESCRIPTION. The alternator system consists of an engine driven alternator, a voltage regulator and a circuit breaker located on the instrument
panel. The system is controlled by the left hand portion of the split rocker, master switch labeled ALT.
An over-voltage sensor switch and red warning light,
labeled HIGH VOLTAGE are incorporated to protect

the system. The aircraft battery supplies the source
of power for excitation of the alternator.
17-35. ALTERNATOR.
17-36. DESCRIPTION. The 60-ampere alternator
used on the aircraft is three-phase, delta connected
with integral silicon diode rectifiers. The alternator
is rated at 28-volts at 60-amperes continuous output. Beginning with 1978 Models a 28-volt, 95 ampere
alternator may be installed.
17-37. ALTERNATOR REVERSE VOLTAGE DAMAGE. The alternator is very-susceptible to reverse
polarity damage due to the very low resistance of the
output windings and the low resistance of the silicon
diodes in the output. If a high current source, such
as a battery or heavy duty ground power cart is attached to the aircraft with the polarity inadvertently
reversed, the current through the alternator will
flow almost without limit and the alternator will be
immediately damaged.

warning light labeled, HIGH VOLTAGE, on the instrument panel. When an over-voltage tripoff occurs the
over-voltage sensor turns off the alternator system
and the red warning light comes on. The ammeter
will show a discharge. Turn off the alternator portion
of the master switch to recycle the over-voltage sensor. If the over-voltage condition was transient, the
normal action is necessary. If the over-voltage tripoff recurs, then a generating system malfunction has
occurred such that the electrical accessories must be
operated from the aircraft battery only. Conservation
of electrical energy must be practiced until the flight
can be terminated. The over-voltage red warning
light filament may be tested at any time by turning off
the alternator portion of the master switch and leaving
the battery portion turned on. This test does not induce an over-voltage condition on the electrical system. Beginning with 1979 Models the over-voltage
sensor is contained within the alternator control unit.
The unit also contains a low-voltage sensor. A red
warning light labeled "LOW VOLTAGE" is installed
on the instrument panel. When an over-voltage condition occurs the over-voltage sensor turns off the
alternator and the voltage in the system drops. When
system voltage drops below 24.8 volts the low-voltage
sensor turns on the low-voltage light indicating a
drain on the battery and the ammeter will show a discharge. Turn off both sections of the master switch
to recycle the over-voltage sensor. If the overvoltage condition was transient, the normal alternator
charging will resume and no further action is necessary. If the over-voltage tripoff recurs, then a generating system malfunction has occurred such that
the electrical accessories must be operated from the
aircraft battery only. Conservation of electrical
energy must be practiced until the flight can be terminated. The over-voltage light filament may be
tested at any time by turning off the "Alternator" portion of the master switch and leaving the battery portion on. This test does not induce an over-voltage
condition on the electrical system.
NOTE
On 1979 thru 1982 models if the alternator low
voltage light comes on when a COM radio transmitter is keyed, refer to Cessna Single Engine
Customer Care Service Information Letter SE8217 Dated April 30, 1982.

17-123. EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTER.
THRU 21061715.
17-124. DESCRIPTION. The ELT is a self-contained,
solid state unit, having its own power supply, with an
externally mounted antenna. The C589510-0209 transmitter is designed to transmit simultaneously on dual
emergency frequencies of 121. 5 and 243. 0 Megahertz.
The C589510-0211 transmitter used for Canadian
registry, operates on 121. 5 only. The unit is mounted in the tailcone. aft of the baggage curtain on the
right hand side. The transmitters are designed to
provide a broadcast tone that is audio modulated in a
swept manner over the range of 1600 to 300 Hz in a
distinct, easily recognizable distress signal for reception by search and rescue personnel and others
monitoring the emergency frequencies. Power is
supplied to the transmitter by a battery pack which
has the service life of the batteries placarded on the
batteries and also on the outside end of the transmitter.
ELT's are equipped with a battery pack containing four lithium "D" size batteries which are stacked
in two's (See figure 17-23). The ELT exhibits line of
sight transmission characteristics which correspond
approximately to 100 miles at a search altitude of
10,000 feet. When battery inspection and replacement
schedules are adhered to, the transmitter will broadcast an emergency signal at rated power (75 MWminimum), for a continuous period of time as listed

17-126. OPERATIONAL TEST OF EMERGENCY
LOCATOR SYSTEM. The ELT, its battery pack, and its
antenna must be inspected and tested each 100 hours.
The operational test of the airplane's emergency locator
system should check both radiated signal strength and
the ELT G-switch. The airplane's VHF receiver is
located very close to the ELT and is very sensitive.
Consequently, using the airplane's VHF receiver to
monitor ELT transmission does not provide same level of
confidence in verifying ELT signal as using AM radio or
performing control tower check.
CAUTION
Tests with the antenna connected should
be approved by the nearest control
tower. The FAA/DOT allows free space
transmission tests from the airplane only
within first five minutes after each hour.
The test time allowed is limited to three
sweeps of the warble tone or
approximately one second control
tower should be notified that a test is
about to be conducted.

17-138. TROUBLE SHOOTING. Should your Emergency Locating Transmitter fail the 100 Hours performance checks, it is possible to a limited degree
to isolate the fault to a particular area of the equipment. In performing the following trouble shooting
TROUBLE
*POWER LOW

procedures to test peak effective radiated power, you
will be able to determine if battery replacement is
necessary or if your unit should be returned to your
dealer for repair.

REMEDY

PROBABLE CAUSE
Low battery voltage.

1. Settoggleswitchtooff.
2. Disconnect the battery pack from the
transmitter and connect a Simpson 260 model
voltmeter and measure voltage. If the battery
pack transmitters is 7.5 volts or less, the
battery pack is below specification.

Faulty transmitter.

3. If the battery pack voltage meets the
specifications in step 2, the battery pack is O.K.
If the battery is O.K., check the transmitter as
follows:
a. Reconnect battery pack to the
transmitter.
b. Using E. F. Johnson 105-0303-001
jackplugs and 3-inch maximum long leads,
connect a Simpson Model 1223 ammeter to the
jack.
c. Set the toggle switch to AUTO and
observe the ammeter current drain. If the
current drain is in the 15-25 ma range, the
transmitter or the coaxial cable is faulty.

Faulty coaxial
antenna cable.

4. Check coaxial antenna cable for high
resistance joints. If this is found to be the case,
the cable should be replaced.

*This test should be carried out with the coaxial cable provided with your unit.

REPA
STRUCTURAL
18-2. REPAIR CRITERIA. Although this section
outlines repair permissible on structure of the aircraft, the decision of whether to repair or replace a
major unit of structure will be influenced by such
factors as time and labor available and by a comparison of labor costs with the price of replacement
assemblies. Past experience indicates that replacement, in many cases, is less costly than major repair. Certainly, when the aircraft must be restored
to its airworthy condition in a limited length of time,
replacement is preferable. Restoration of a damaged aircraft to its original design strength, shape and
alignment involves careful evaluation of the damage,
followed by exacting workmanship in performing the
repairs. This section suggests the extent of structural repair practicable on the aircraft and supplements Federal Aviation Regulation, Part 43. Consult the factory when in doubt about a repair not
specifically mentioned here.
18-3. EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS.
18-4. SUPPORT STANDS. Padded, reinforced sawhorse or tripod type support stands, sturdy enough to
support any assembly placed upon them, must be used
to store a removed wing or tailcone. Plans for local
fabrication of support stands are contained in figure
18-1. The fuselage assembly, from the tailcone to the
firewall, must NOT be supported from the underside,
since the skin bulkheads are not designed for this purpose. Adapt support stands to fasten to the wingattach points or landing gear attach-points when supporting a fuselage.
18-5. FUSELAGE REPAIR JIGS. Whenever a repair
is to be made which could affect structural alignment,
suitable jigs must be used to assure correct alignment of major attach points, such as fuselage, firewall, wing and landing gear. These fuselage repair
jigs are obtainable from the factory.
18-6. WING JIGS. These jigs serve as a holding
fixture during extensive repair of a damaged wing,
and locates the root rib, leading edge and tip rib of
the wing. These jigs are also obtainable from the
factory.
18-7. REPAIR MATERIALS. Thickness of a material on which a repair is to be made can easily be determined by measuring with a micrometer. In general, material used in Cessna aircraft covered in
this manual is made from 2024 aluminum alloy, heat
treated to a -T3, -T4, or -T42 condition. If the
type of material cannot readily be determined, 2024T3 may be used in making repairs, since the strength
of -T3 is greater than -T4 or -T42 (-T4 and -T42
may be used interchangeably, but they may not be
substituted for -T3. When necessary to form a part
with a smaller bend radius than the standard cold
bending radius for 2024-T4, use 2024-0 and heat
treat to 2024-T42 after forming. The repair material used in making a repair must equal the gauge of
the material being repaired unless otherwise noted.

18-2

It is often practical to cut repair pieces from service
parts listed in the Parts Catalog. A few components
(empennage tips, for example) are fabricated from
thermo-formed plastic or glass fiber constructed
material.
18-8. WING TWIST AND STABILIZER ANGLE-OFINCIDENCE. Wing twist (washout) and stabilizer
angle of incidence are shown below. Stabilizers do not
have twist. The cantilever wing has a uniform twist
from the root rib to the tip rib. Refer to figure
18-2 for wing twist measurement.

WING.

18-10. DESCRIPTION. The wing is sheet-metal
constructed, with a single main spar, two fuel spars,
formed ribs and stringers. The front fuel spar also
serves as an auxiliary spar and is the forward wing
attaching point. An inboard section forward of the
main spar is sealed to form an integral fuel bay
area. The main spar consists of milled spar caps
and attaching fittings joined by a web section. The
aft fuel spar is a formed channel. The front fuel
spar is a built-up assembly consisting of a formed
channel, doubler, attach strap and support angle.
Stressed skin, riveted to the ribs, spars and stringers, completes the wing structure. Access openings
(hand holes with removable cover plates) are located
in the underside of the wing between the wing root
and tip section. These openings afford access to the
flap and aileron bellcranks, flap drive pulleys, flap
actuator in left wing, flap and aileron control cable
disconnect points, fuel adapter plate, air scoop connectors and electrical wiring.
18-11.

WING SKIN.

18-12. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE. Any smooth dents
in the wing skin that are free from cracks, abrasions
and sharp corners, which are not stress wrinkles
and do not interfere with any internal structure or
mechanism, may be considered as negligible damage
in any area of the wing, Outboard of wing station
40.00 in areas of low stress intensity, cracks, deep
scratches or sharp dents, which after trimming or
stop drilling can be enclosed by a two-inch circle,
can be considered negligible if the damaged area is
at least one diameter of the enclosing circle away
from all existing rivet lines and material edges.
The area on the lower surface of the wing between
the two stringers adjacent to the main spar is not
considered low stress intensity. Stop drilling is
considered a temporary repair and a permanent repair should be made as soon as practicable.
18-13. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Repairs must not
be made to the upper or lower wing skin inboard of
station 40. 00 without factory approval. However, an

.

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
entire skin may be replaced without factory approval.
Refer to Section 1 for wing station locations. Figure
18-4 outlines typical repairs to be employed in patching skin. Before installing a patch, trim the damaged area to form a rectangular pattern, leaving at
least a one-half inch radius at each corner and deburr. The sides of the hole should lie span-wise or
chord-wise. A circular patch may also be used. If
the patch is in an area where flush rivets are used,
make a flush patch type of repair; if in an area where
fush rivets are not used, make an overlapping type
of repair. Where optimum appearance and airflow
are desired, the flush patch may be used.' Careful
workmanship will eliminate gaps at butt-joints;
however, an opoxy type filler may be used at such
joints.

scratches and abrasions may be considered negligible.
18-25. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. All cracks, stress
wrinkles, deep scratches and sharp dents must be
repaired. However, repairs must not be made to
the main wing spar inboard of wing station 155.00
without factory approval. Refer to Section 1 for wing
station locations. Figure 18-7 outlines a typical
main wing spar repair.
18-26. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. An entire wing spar may be replaced
without factory approval.
18-27. WING FUEL BAY SPARS AND RIBS.

18-14. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. If a skin is badly damaged, repair must
be made by replacing an entire skin panel, from one
structural member to the next. Repair seams must
be made to lie along existing structural members
and each seam must be made exactly the same in regard to rivet size, spacing and pattern as the manufactured seams at the edges of the original sheet. If
the manufactured seams are different, the stronger
must be copied. If the repair ends at a structural
member where no seam is used, enough repair panel
must be used to allow an extra row of staggered
rivets, with sufficient edge margin, to be installed.

18-28. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE. Any smooth dents
in the fuel spars that are free from cracks, abrasions and sharp corners, which are not stress
wrinkles and do not interfere with any internal struc ture or mechanism, may be considered as negligible
damage in any area of the spar.

18-15. WING STRINGERS.

18-30. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. Due to the amount of fuel bay sealant
which must be removed from fuel bay components to..
facilitate repair, individual parts are not available
to replace fuel bay spars or ribs. The entire fuel
bay area must be replaced as a unit.

18-16. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE.
18-12.

Refer to paragraph

18-17. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Figure 18-5 outlines a typical wing stringer repair. Two such repairs may be used to splice a new section of stringer
material in position, without the filler material.
18-18. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. If a stringer is so badly damaged that
more than one section must be spliced, replacement
is recommended.

18-22. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. Any wing rib damaged extensively
should be replaced. However, due to the necessity
of disassembling so much of the wing in order to replace a rib, especially in the fuel bay area which involves sealing, wing ribs should be repaired if practicable.
18-23.

WING SPAR.

18-24. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE.

Due to the stresses

which the wing spar encounters, very little damage

can be considered negligible.

Smooth dents, light

18-29. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. The type of repair
outlined in figure 18-7 also applies to fuel bay spars
outboard of wing station 124.0. Inboard of station
124. 0, factory approval of proposed repairs is required. Refer to Section 13 for sealing procedures
when working in fuel bay areas.

18-31. AILERONS.
18-32. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE.
18-12.

Refer to paragraph

18-33. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. The repair shown
in figure 18-8 may be used to repair damage to aileron leading edge skins. The flush-type skin patches
shown in figure 18-4 may be used to repair damage
to the remaining skins. Following repair, the aileron must be balanced. Refer to paragraph 18-35 and
figure 18-3 for balancing the aileron.
18-34. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. If the damage would require a repair
which could not be made between adjacent ribs, complete skin panels must be replaced. Ribs and spars
may be repaired, but replacement is generally pre ferable. Where extensive damage has occurred, replacement of the aileron assembly is recommended.
After repair or replacement, balance aileron in
accordance with paragraph 18-35 and figure 18-3.
18-35. AILERON BALANCING. Following repair,
replacement or painting, the aileron must be balanced.
A flight control surface balancing fixture kit is avail-

able (P/N 5180002-1).

See figure 18-3 for procedures

pertaining to the use of this kit.

NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE.

Refer to paragraph

18-38. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Flap repairs should
be similar to aileron repairs discussed in paragraph
18-33. A flap leading edge repair is shown in figure
18-9.
18-39. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. Flap repairs which require replacement
of parts should be similar to aileron repairs discussed in paragraph 18-34. Since the flap is not considered a movable control surface, no balancing is
required.
18-40.

WING LEADING EDGE.

18-41.
18-12.

NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE.

Refer to paragraph

18-42. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. A typical leading
edge skin repair is shown in figure 18-8. Also, wing
skin repairs, outlined in paragraph 18-13, may be
used to repair leading edge skins, although the flushtype patches should be used. Extra access holes,
described in figure 18-10, must not be installed in
the wing without factory approval. Where extreme
damage has occured, replace complete skin panels.
18-43. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. An entire leading edge skin may be replaced without factory approval.

18-48. ELEVATOR AND RUDDER BALANCING.
Following repair, replacement or painting, the
elevators and rudder must be balanced. A flight
control surface balancing fixture kit is available
(P/N 5180002-1). See figure 18-3 for procedures
pertaining to the use of this kit.
18-49.
18-50.
18-12.

18-52. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. If the damaged area would require a
repair which could not be made between adjacent ribs,
or the repair would be located in an area with compound curves, complete skin panels must be replaced.
Ribs and spars may be repaired, but replacement is
generally preferable. Where damage is extensive,
replacement of the entire assembly is recommended.
BONDED DOORS.

ELEVATORS AND RUDDER.

18-45. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE. Refer to paragraph
18-12. The exception to negligible damage on the
elevator surfaces is the front spar, where a crack
appearing in the web at the hinge fittings or in the
structure which supports the overhanging balance
weight is not considered negligible. Cracks in the
overhanging tip rib, in the area at the front spar
intersection with the web of the rib, also cannot be
considered negligible.

18-52B. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Bonded doors
may be repaired by the same methods used for
riveted structure. Rivets are a satisfactory substitute for bonded seams on these assemblies. The
strength of the bonded seams in doors may be replaced by a single 3/32, 2117-AD rivet per running
inch of bond seam. The standard repair procedures
outlined in AC43. 13-1 are also applicable to bonded
doors.
18-53.

18-46. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Skin patches
illustrated in figure 18-4 may be used to repair skin
damage. Following repair, the elevators and rudder
must be balanced. Refer to paragraph 18-48 and
figure 18-3 for balancing the elevators and rudder.
If damage would require a repair which could not be
made between adjacent ribs, see the following paragraph.
18-47. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. If the damaged area would require a repair which could not be made between adjacent ribs,
complete skin panels must be replaced. Ribs and
spars may be repaired, but replacement is generally
preferable. Where extensive damage has occured,
replacement of the entire assembly is recommended.
After repair and/or replacement, balance elevators
and rudder in accordance with paragraph 18-48 and
figure 18-3.
18-4

Refer to paragraph

18-51. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Skin patches illustrated in figure 18-4 may be used to repair skin
damage. Access to the dorsal area of the fin may be
gained by removing the horizontal closing rib at the
bottom of the fin. Access to the internal fin structure
is best gained by removing skin attaching rivets on
one side of the rear spar and ribs, and springing
back the skin. Access to the stabilizer structure
may be gained by removing skin attaching rivets orone side of the rear spar and ribs, and springing
back the skin. If the damaged area would require a
repair which could not be made between adjacent
ribs, or a repair would be located in an area with
compound curves, see the following paragraph.

FUSELAGE.
CAUTION

Repairs must not be made to the main wing
spar carry-thru section of the cantilever
wing without factory approval.
18-54. DESCRIPTION. The fuselage is of semimonocoque construction consisting of formed bulkheads, longitudinal stringers, reinforcing channels
and skin platings.
18-55. NEGLIGIBLE DAMAGE. Refer to paragraph
18-12. Mild corrosion appearing upon alclad surfaces does not necessarily indicate incipient failure
of the base metal. However, corrosion of all types
must be carefully considered and approved remedial
action taken. Small cans appear in the skin structure
of all metal aircraft. It is strongly recommended,

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
however, that wrinkles which appear to have originated from other sources, or which do not follow the
general appearance of the remainder of the skin
panels, be thoroughly investigated. Except in the
landing gear bulkhead area, wrinkles occuring over
stringers which disappear when the rivet pattern is
removed may be considered negligible. However,
the stringer rivet holes may not align perfectly with
the skin holes because of a permanent "set" in the
stringer. If this is apparent, replacement of the
stringer will usually restore the original strength
characteristics of the area.
NOTE
Wrinkles occuring in the skin of the main
landing gear bulkhead areas must not be
considered negligible. The skin panel must
be opened sufficiently to permit a thorough
examination of the lower portion of the landing gear bulkhead and its tie-in structure.

checked for alignment and a straightedge must be
used to determine deformation of the bulkhead webs.
Damaged support structure, buckled floorboards
and skins and damaged or questionable forgings
must be replaced.
18-61. FIREWALL DAMAGE. Firewalls may be repaired by removing the damaged material and splicing in a new section. The new portion must be lapped over the old material, sealed with Pro-Seal #700
(Coast Pro-Seal Co., Chemical Division, 2235 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, California) compound, or
equivalent and secured with MS16535 (steel) or MS20613 (corrosion-resistant steel) rivets. The heater
valve assembly is attached with MS16535 and MS20613 rivets. Firewall plates, firewall doublers,
and nutplates are attached to the firewall with MS20470 (aluminum) rivets. Damaged or deformed
angles and stiffeners may be repaired as shown in
figure 18-11, or they may be replaced. A severely
damaged firewall must be replaced as a unit.

Wrinkles occuring on open areas which disappear
when the rivets at the edge of the sheet are removed,
or a wrinkle which is hand removable, may often be
repaired by the addition of a 1/2 x 1/2 x .060 inch
2024-T4 extruded angle, riveted over the wrinkle
and extended to within 1/16 to 1/8 inch of the nearest
structural members. Rivet pattern must be identical to the existing manufactured seam at the edge of
the sheet.

18-62. FASTENERS. Fasteners used in the aircraft
are generally solid aluminum rivets, blind rivets, and
steel-threaded fasteners. Usage of each is primarily
a function of the loads to be carried, accessibility,
and frequency of removal. Rivets used in aircraft
construction are usually fabricated from aluminum
alloys. In special cases, monel, corrosion-resistant
steel and mild steel, copper, and iron rivets are used.

18-56. REPAIRABLE DAMAGE. Fuselage skin repairs may be accomplished in the same manner as
wing skin repairs outlined in paragraph 18-13.
Stringers, formed skin flanges, bulkhead channels
and similar parts may be repaired as shown in figure 18-5.

18-63. RIVETS. Standard solid-shank MS riets
are those generally used in aircraft construction.
They are fabricated in the following head types:
roundhead, flathead, countersunk head, and brazier
head. Flathead rivets are generally used in the aircraft interior where head clearance is required.
MS20426 countersunk head rivets are used on the
exterior surfaces of the aircraft to minimize turbulent airflow. MS20470 brazier head rivets are used
on the exterior surfaces of the aircraft where strength
requirements necessitate a stronger rivet head than
that of the countersunk head rivet. Both the brazier
head and the countersunk head rivets are used on the
exterior of the aircraft where head clearance is required. Hi-shear rivets are special, patented rivets
having a hi-shear strength equivalent to that of standardAN bolts. They are used in special cases in
locations where hi-shear loads are present, such as
in spars, wings, and in heavy bulkhead ribs. This
rivet consists of a cadmium-plated pin of alloy steel.
Some have a collar of aluminum alloy. Some of these
rivets can be reaily identified by the presence of the
attached collar in place of the formed head on standardrivets. Blind rivets are used, where strength
requirements permit, where one side of the structure
is inaccessible, making it impossible or impractical
to drive standard solid-shank rivets.

18-57. DAMAGE NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. Fuselage skin major repairs may be
accomplished in the same manner as wing skin repairs outlined in paragraph 18-14. Damaged fittings
must be replaced.
18-58.

BULKHEADS,

18-59. LANDING GEAR BULKHEADS. Since these
bulkheads are highly stressed members irregularly
formed to provide clearance for control lines, actuators, fuel lines, etc., patch type repairs will be,
for the most part, impractical. Minor damage consisting of small nicks or scratches may be repaired
by dressing out the damaged area, or by replacement of rivets. Any other such damage must be repaired by replacing the landing gear support assembly as an aligned unit.
18-60. REPAIR AFTER HARD LANDING. Buckled
skin or floorboards and loose or sheared rivets in
the area of the main gear support will give evidence
of damage to the structure from an extremely hard
landing. When such evidence is present, the entire
support structure must be carefully examined and
all support forgings must be checked for cracks,
using a dye penetrant and proper magnification.
Bulkheads in the area of possible damage must be

18-64. REPLACEMENT OF HI-SHEAR RIVETS.
Replacement of hi-shear rivets with close-tolerance
bolts or other commercial fasteners of equivalent
strength properties is permissible. Holes must not
be elongated, and the hi-shear substitute must be a
smooth, push-fit. Field replacement of main landing
gear forgings on bulkheads may be accomplished by
18-5/(18-6 blank)

MODEL 210 & T210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL
using the following fasteners.
a. NAS464P-* bolt, MS21042-* nut and AN960-*

*Dash numbers to be determined according to the size
of the holes and the grip lengths required. Bolt grip
length should be chosen so that no threads remain in
the bearing area.
18-65. SUBSTITUTIN OF RIVETS.
a. Solid-shank rivets (MS20426AD and MS20470AD).

Replace

In thickness
(or thicker)

When placing rivets in installations which require
raised head rivets, it is desirable to use rivets identical to the type of rivet removed. Countersunk-head
rivets (MS20426) are to be replaced by rivets of the
same type and degree of countersink. When rivet
holes become enlarged, deformed, or otherwise
damaged, use the next larger size rivet as a replacement. Replacement shall not be made with rivets of
lower strength material/
b. Hi-shear Rivets. When hi-shear rivets are not
available, replacement of sizes 3/16-inch or greater
rivets shall be made with bolts of equal or greater
strength than the rivet being replaced, and with selflocking nuts of the same diameter.
c. The following pages contain approved solid-shared
and hi-shear rivet substitutions.

ALL WING TWIST OCCURS BETWEEN STA. 26.50 AND STA. 205. 00.
CHECKING WING TWIST
If damage has occured to a wing, it is advisable to check the twist. The following method can be used with
a minimum of equipment, which includes a straightedge (42" minimum length of angle or equivalent), three
modified bolts and a protractor head with level.
1.

Check chart for applicable dimension for bolt length (A or B).

2.

Grind bolt shanks to a rounded point as illustrated, checking length periodically.

3.

Tape two bolts to straightedge according to dimension C.

4.

Locate inboard wing station to be checked and make a pencil mark approximately one-half inch
aft of first lateral row of rivets, aft of wing leading edge.

5.

Holding straightedge parallel to wing station, (staying as clear as possible from "cans"), place
bolt on pencil mark and set protractor head against lower edge of straightedge.

6.

Set bubble in level to center and lock protractor to hold this reading.

7.

Omitting step 6, repeat procedure for outboard wing station, using dimensions specified in chart.
to see that protractor bubble is still centered.

8.

Proper twist is present in wing if protractor readings are the same (parallel).
may be lowered from wing . 10 inch maximum to attain parallelism.

placed. Standard insert-type patches, however,
may be used if repair parts are formed to fit. Small
cracks may be stop-drilled and dents straightened if
they are reinforced on the inner side with a doubler
of the same material. Bonded cowling may be repaired by the same methods used for riveted structure. Rivets are a satisfactory substitute for bonded
seams on these assemblies. The strength of the
bonded seams in cowling may be replaced by a single
3/32, 2117-AD rivet per running inch of bond seam.
The standard repair procedures outlined in Advisory
Circular 43.13-1 are also applicable to cowling.
Circular 43.13-1 are also applicable to cowling.

18-69. REPAIR OF REINFORCEMENT ANGLES.
Cowl reinforcement angles, if damaged, must be
replaced. Due to their small size they are easier
to replace than to repair.
18-70. REPAIR OF GLASS-FIBER CONSTRUCTED
COMPONENTS. Glass-fiber constructed components
on the aircraft may be repaired as stipulated in instructions furnished in SK182-12. Observe the resin
manufacturer's recommendations concerning mixing
and application of the resin. Epoxy resins are preferable for making repairs, since epoxy compounds
are usually more stable and predictable than polyester and give better adhesion.

Paint is a considerable weight factor. In order to keep balance weight to a minimum.
it is recommended that existing paint be removed before adding paint to a control
surface. Increase in balance weight will also be limited by the amount of space
available and clearance with adjacent parts. Good workmanship and standard repair
practices should not result in unreasonable balance weight.

8.

The approximate amount of weight needed may be determined by taping loose weight
at the balance weight area.

9.

Lighten balance weight by drilling off part of weight.
Make balance weight heavier by fusing bar stock solder to weight after removal from
control surface. The ailerons should have balance weight increased by ordering
additional weight and gang channel. listed in applicable Parts Catalog and installing
next to existing inboard weight the minimum length necesary for correct balance.
except that a length which contains at least two attaching screws must be used. If
necessary, lighten new weight or existing weights for correct balance.

NOTE
Balance limits for control surfaces are expressed for
"Approved Flight" configuration. "Approved Flight"
configuration is that condition of the control surface as
prepared for flight of the airplane whether it be painted or
unpainted.
"Approved Flight" limits must never be exceeded when
the surface is in its final configuration for flight.
DEFINITIONS:
UNDERBALANCE is defined a the condition that exists when surface is trailing edge
heavy and I defined by a symbol (+). If the balance beam sliding weight must be-on the
leading edge side of the hinge line (to balane the control surface), the control surface is
considered to be underbalanced.

OVERBALANCE is defined as the condition that exists when surface is leading edge
heavy and is defined by a symbol (-). If the balance beam sliding weight must be on the
trailing edge side of the hinge line (to balance the control surface), the control surface is
conidered to be overbalanced.

the ability to maintain environmental control; temperature at 65ºF., and a positive pressure inside to
preclude the possibility of foreign material damage.
All paint equipment must be clean, and accurate
measuring containers available for mixing protective
coatings. Modified Urethane has a pot life of four to
eight hours, depending on ambient temperature and
relative humidity. Use of approved respirators while
painting is a must, for personal safety. All solvent
containers should be grounded to prevent static buildup. Catalyst materials are toxic, therefore, breathing fumes or allowing contact with skin can cause
serious irritation. Material stock should be rotated
to allow use of older materials first, because its
useful life is limited. All supplies should be stored

Care must be exercised to avoid cuts, scratches or
gouges by metal objects to all plexiglass surfaces,
because cuts and scratches may contribute to crazing
and failure of plexiglass windows.
c. Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) solvent should be
used for final cleaning of airplanes prior to painting.
The wiping cloths shall be contaminant and lint free
HEX. Saturate cloth in the solvent and wring out so
it does not drip. Wipe the airplane surface with the
solvent saturated cloth in one hand, and immediately
dry with a clean cloth in the other hand. It is important to wipe dry solvent before t evaporates. Avoid
contact of MEK with plexiglass, as crazing will result.

When an airplane has paint or zinc chromate overon the exterior. stripper may be used to re-

move the overspray.

The stripped may be applied

by brush and will require a ew minutes to soften the
overspray. Heavy coatings may require more than
one application of the stripper. Use extreme care to

prevent stripper from running into faying surfaces on

a. Above serialized aircraft have Enmar Wash
Primer EX-ER-7, Enflex IIIEnamel for overall
color and stripes.
b. Mix one to one, EX-ER-7 primer with T-ER-4
Reducer by volume. Mix only in stainless steel or
lined containers only. After mixing allow primer to
set for 30 minutes before spraying. Pot life of the
mixed primer is six (6) hours. All mixed material
should be discarded if not used within this time.
Pot pressure during spraying should be approximately 10 PSI ± 1 PSI. Air pressure should be 40 to 50
PSI at the gun. Blow loose contaminant of the aircraft with clean, dry air. Check all tapes to make
sure it adheres properly. Cover the flap tracks,
nose gear strut tube, wheels, and shimmy dampener
rod ends. ABS parts and other preprimed parts do
not receive wash primer.
NOTE

19-11. PRIMING.
a. Apply primer in one wet even coat. Dry film
thickness to be ,0003 to ,0005 inches. Do not topcoat until sufficiently cured. When scratching with
firm pressure of the fingernail does not penetrate
the coating, the primer is cured. Primer should be
topcoated within four hours after application.

c. Corrosion proofed and standard aircraft will
receive Sherwin Williams Primer P60G2, DuPont
Imron Enamel for over all color, and for stripes,
d. Mix 1 part P60G2 primer with 1 1/2 parts
R7K44 catalyst reducer, by volume. Mix in stainless steel or lined containers only. After mixing
allow primer to set for 30 minutes before spraying.
Pot life of the mixed primer is six (6) hours, all
mixed materials should be discarded if not used
within that time limit. Pot pressure during spraying
should be approximately 10 PSI ± 1 PSI. Air pressure
should be 40 to 50 PSI at the gun. Blow loose contaminant off the airplane with clean, dry air. Check
all tapes to make sure they adhere properly. Cover
the flap tracks, nose gear strut tube, wheels, and
shimmy dampener rod ends. ABS parts and other
preprimed parts do not receive wash primer.

b. On standard aircraft mix the required amount of
Imron with Imron 192S Activator in a 3 to 1 ratio by
volume. Mix thoroughly, and begin spraying immediately, because there is no induction time requirement
Imron can be thinned to spraying viscosity with Y8485S
Imron Reducer. Viscosity should be checked and adjusted after four hours if necessary.

WARNING
AIRCRAFT SHOULD BE GROUNDED
PRIOR TO PAINTING TO PREVENT STATIC
ELECTRICITY BUILDUP AND DISCHARGE.

c. When applying modified urethane finishes, the
painter should wear an approved respirator, which
has a dust filter and organic vapor cartridge, or an
air supplied respirator. All modified urethane finishes contain some isocyanate, which may cause irritation to the respiratory tract or an allergic reaction.
Individuals may become sensitized to isocyanates.
d. The pot life of the mixture is approximately 6-8
hours at 75°F (24°C). Pot pressure should be
approximately 12 PSI during application. Air pressure
at the gun should be 40 to 50 PSI.
e. Scuff sand the primer only where runs or dirt
particles are evident. Minor roughness or grit may
be removed by rubbing the surface with brown Kraft

paper which has been thoroughly wrinkled. Unmask
ABS and other preprimed parts and check tapes.
Clean surface with a jet of low pressure-dry air.

f. Painting of the stripe should be done with two or
three wet, even coats. Dry coats will not reflow and will
leave a grainy appearance. Stripes may be force dried or
air dried. Film thickness of a stripe is approximately 1.0

19-13. PAINTING OVERALL -- WHITE OR COLOR.

mil.

a. Complete painting of the plane should be done with
two or three wet, even coats. Dry coats will not reflow
and will leave a grainy appearance.
b. Allow a five minute period for the finish to flash off
before moving aircraft to the oven.
c. Move to the force dry oven and dry for approximately 1 ½ hours at 120°F to 140°F (49°C to 60°C).
d. Dry film thickness of the overall color should be
between 1.3 and 2.0 mils. Films in excess of 3.0 mils are
not desirable.

g. Do not remove masking tape and paper until the
paint has dried to a "dry to touch" condition. Care
should be exercised in removal of the masking to prevent damage to the finish.
h. Uncured urethane finishes are sensitive to moisture, therefore, should be stored out of rain until
cured.

19-14. STRIPES.
a. Remove airplane from the oven. Allow airplane
to cool to room temperature before masking.
b. Mask stripe area using 3M Tape Y231 or 3M Tape
Y218 and Class A solvent proof paper. Double tape all
skin laps to prevent blow by.
c. Airplanes which will have a stripe only configuration shall be masked, cleaned, and primed, in stripe
area only.
d. If the base coat is not over 72 hours old, the
stripe area does not require sanding. If sanding is
necessary because of age or to remove surface defects, use #400 or #600 sand paper. Course paper
will leave sand marks which will decrease gloss and
depth of gloss of the finish. The use of power sanders
should be held to a minimum; if used, exercise care
to preclude sanding through the white base coat. Wipe
surface to be striped with a tack cloth and check all
tapes.
e. Stripe colors on Enflex III,Jet Glo, or acrylic base
coat will be Acry Glo, and on Imron modified urethane
base coat will be Imron Enamel. When mixing tints for
stripes, stir the containers for at least 20 minutes before
weighing out the required masses. Mix Acry Glo using
three volumes of 571 Series Base with one volume of
581-091 catalyst; thin mixture with 110-701 or 110-755
thinners 20% to 25% by volume (18 to 25 seconds in a
No. 2 Zahn cup). Mix Imron using eight volumes of base
with one volume VG-Y-1421 catalyst (ratio three to one
if 1925 activator used); thin with Cessna Thinner No. 1
(18 to 20 seconds in a No. 2 Zahn cup).

19-6

Revision 3

19-15. TOUCHUP.
When necessary to touch up or refinish an area. the
defect should be sanded with 1400 and followed by 2600
sand paper. Avoid, if possible, sanding through the
primer. If the primer is penetrated over an area 1/2
inch square or larger, repriming is necessary. Avoid
spraying primer on the adjacent paint as much as possible. Since urethane finishes cannot be "spotted in"
repairs should be in sections extending to skin laps or
stripe lines.
a. Dry overspray and rough areas may be compounded out with DuPont #808 rubbing compound.
b. Grease, bug stains, etc., may be removed from
painted surfaces with Form Tech AC. Klad Polish
may be used on bare aluminum to remove stains, oxides, etc.
c. Rework areas, where paint or primer removal is
required, may be stripped with Strypeeze Paint Removal. All traces of stripper must be removed before
refinishing.
19-16. REPAIR OF DENTS.
a. To repair dents use White Streak Filler or equivalent. Mix White Streak. in the correct proportion as
recommended by the manufacturer.
b. Do not apply White Streak Filler over paint. All
paint shall be removed in the repair area and the aluminum surface sanded lightly to increase adhesion.
Apply the White Streak to a level slightly above the
surrounding skin. After drying for 10 - 15 minutes,
sand the filler flush with the skin surface, using care
to feather the edges.
