When taxiing, it is important that speed and use of brakes be held to
a minimum ancl that all controls be utilizecl (see taxiing diagram, figure
2-3) to maintain directional control and balance.
Ta-xiing over loose gravel or cinders shoulcl be done at lorv engilte
speed to avoid abrasion and stone daurage to the propeller tips.

you are justified in making a tholough fuil-throttle,
static runup before
another take-ofl is attempted.
Full-throttle runlrps ovel Ioose gravel are especially harmlul to propeller tips. When take-offs must be made over a gravel surface, it i.s
very i.mpoltant that the throttle be advar.rcedslowly. This allows the airplane to start rolling before high RPM is developed, and the gravel will
be blown back of the propeller rather than pulled into it. When unavoidable small dents appear in the propeller blades, they should be intmedia t e l y c o r r e c t e d as d e scr i b e d i .n Se cti o n IV u n d e r p r o p e l l e r ca r e .

With a combination of higily volatile fuel, high fuel temperature,
operating altitude, and low fuel florv rate in the tank outiet lines, there is
a remote possibility of accumulating fuel vapor and encountering power irTo minimize ttr-is possibility,
the followregularities on some airplanes.
ing operating procedures are recommended:
(1)
Take-off and climb to cruise altifude on "both" tanks.
(This is consistent with current recommendations. )
(2) When reaching cruise altitude above 5000 feet MSL, promptly
switch the fuel selector valve from "both" tanks to either the
"right" or "Ieft" tank.
(3) During cruise, use "Ieft" and "right" tank as required.
(4) Select "both" tanks for landing as currently recommended.

In the remote event that vapor is present in sufficient amounts to
cause a power irregularity, the following powe'rrecovery techniques
should be followed:
OP E RA T I O N O N A SIN G L E T A N K
Shouldpower irregularities occur when operating on a single tank,
power can be restored immediately by switching to the opposite tank.
In addition, the vapor accumulati.onin the tank on which the power irregularity occurred will rapidly dissipate itselJ such that that tank i",ill also be
available for normal operation after it has been unused for approximately
one (1) minute.
OPE R. A T I O NO N BOT H T AN KS
Shouldpower irregularities occur with the fuel selector on both tanks,
the following steps are to be taken to restore power:
