The •major
sub-assemblies of the complete wing assembly may
be installed •individually, or the complete wing assembly may be in-
stalled on the fuselage in one unit. Instructions for the installa-
tio~ of indi ~idual assemblies will be found in the ensuing para-
grap hs. Do not remove plugs from ends of pitot tube, fuel and hy-
draulic lines~ until ready to make line connections. These plugs are
provided in o~i-der t o prevent p ossible loss of fluid and entrance of

'
b . Cen~er Section Installation. - The wing center sectio n is
attacned t o the fuselage structure by means of four bolts at two
point s of att:achment to the front spar , and four bolts at two points
of attachment to the r ear spar. Two spacers are required between
center section; and fuselage at the rear points of attachment . Prior
to installation, the center section should be leveled and supported
in po sition with landing gear down. Place bar or rigid tubing with
hooked ~nds be twe en lugs at jacking point of each wheel to prevent
wheels ·from retracting during wing installation. The fuselage
should be ho i sted and then lowered to . the center section, and attach-
ing points lin, hd up. Refer to page 153, of this Handbook, for fusel-
age hoisting i structions. Care should be exercised when lowering
the f'uselage t see that a ll fittings, rods, wires, lines, etc.: ~re
eit her clear o guided into their proper position as r equired. B0 cer-
tain spacers a d insulating plates are in position. Secure attachment

~· Flap Panels.
(1) General Description: - Four split type landing flap pan-
els are incorporated in the lower surface of the wing trailing edge,
r
I
extending between the inboard ends of the ailerons. The panels are
constructed of aluminum alloy pressed flanged ribs, and a "hat" sec-
\.
tion spar located down the center, and a channel section trailing
edge . The leading edge consists of' a channel section to which are
attache d the hinge fittings. A metal covering located on the bottom
completes each flap panel assembly. The flaps are hydraulically oper -
ated and manually controlled.
(2) Installation: - Prior to installing the flap panel~, op-
erate the flap controls to obtain position of actuating mechanism rel-
ative to the full down position of the flaps . .Attach the f our land-
ing flap panels individually to the lower sli.rface of the wing center
section and outer wing panels at hinge points with AN24-17 bolts,
AN320~4 nuts, AN380-2-2 cotters, and AN960 - 416 washers. Attach upper
fixed end of small flap actuating rods to points of attachment on
push-pull rod, the lower adjustable end of the actuating rods being
att ached to the flap panel ribs . Attach flap position indicator cable
to angle plate riveted to left inboard flap panel with P.C. 2891 pin.

required. Synchronization of outer wing flap panels wit~ center sec-
l
tion flap panels is -ac compli-shed by means of adjustment ftittings at
fl ap push-pull rod universal joints. The travel of the two groups,
of two panels each, should be equalized by adjusting the ·1ength of
the left rod connecting the flap hydraulic operating cyli'nder push-
pull rod to the equalizer rocker arm at the bottom of the. hydraulic
cylinder. An adjustable rod end is provided for this purpose. To
adjust the flap position indicator cable, a turnbuckle assembly is
provided at the upper end of the cable.

(4) Rudder: - ;The rudder is statically and dynamically bal-
anced. The rudder rrame is .of aluminum all oy construction, c onsist-
ing ess entially of a to~que tube, pressed flanged ribs, a channel
type trailing edge, and . a metal covered leading edge. In addition to
forming the leading edge contour, the metal cover also resists tor-
sional loads. A balancing, cast lead counterweight is built into the
leading edge of the balance porti on. The frame assembly is fabric
covered. · The rudder is provided with an aluminum alloy trim tab . A
navigation light is loc~ted in the trailing edge of the rudder, just
below the tab. The rudcer assembly is attached to hi ng e brackets on
the rear spar of the ver·tical stabilizer a t three points by means of
ball bearing eye - bolts.
(5 ) Trim Tabs : - Trim tabs of aluminum alloy construction
are incorpo rated . in tfie ltrailing edges of the rudder and each section
of the elevator assembl~ . They are controlled by a system of cables
and pulleys actuated by control wheels loca t ed at the left side of
each cockpit. The contro l cables are interconnect ed with the tabs by
means o.f a drum and irre versible tab mechanism~ located in the lead-
ing edge of each of the respecti ve control sur faces, d irect ly forward
of the tab . The tab mechanism is int erc onne c~a d with t he tab b y
means of a threaded· push-pull rod. The tabs are hinged by means of
type .AN251 continuous hinges.

2. Engine Controls
a. General. - The engine controls · are of the steel tube, push~
pull type, with bellcranks and rod ends mounted on ball bearings.
The throttle, mixture and propeller control handles are all assembled
in a single quadrant located at the left side of each cockpit, and
are interconnected by means of rods. The function and operation of
the con~rols are as follows:
(1) Throttle Control. - The forward position of the throt-
tl e control lever is 11 0PSN 11 and the rearward position 11 CLOSED 11 , as
indicated on quadrant. The throttle control in the front cockpit is
provided with a joggle type; sea level stop that should be adjusted
to limit the control lever travel so that 36 in.Hg manifold pressure
at 2250 R.P.M. is· not exceeded at sea level take-off. Each lever
knob includes a throttle switch for radio purposes, and a disconnect
plug is provided at the rear of each quadrant.
(2) Mixture Control: - Moving the mL~ture control lever for-
ward, the positions are 11 IDLE CUT-OFF", "FULL LEAN", "FULL RICH",
"AUTOMATIC RICH" and "AUTOMATIC LEAN", in that order. The front
cockpit mixture control handle is equipped with a joggle type stop ,
so adjusted that the mixture control lever will stop in the "AUTO-
...,. MATIC RICH" position. To operate in "AUTOMATIC LEAN", the stop must
I be passed . Manual "FULL RICH" and "FULL LEAN" are also provided for
\.'-..- ,. use in the event of failure of the automatic mixture control only.
(3) Propeller Control: - For operation of the propeller
control, included in the engine control quadrant, refer to page 68,
of t his Handbook.
3- Propeller
a. General. - The engine is equipped with a two -b lade, nine -
foot diameter, Hamilton Standard; constant speed, hydro-adjustabl e
propeller. The pr opeller hub assembly model number is 12D40-201,.
the propeller blade assembly model number is 6101A-12, and the con-
¢ stant speed control governor unit model number is 1Ml2A. Pitch set-
tings range from 11° to 27°.
b. Principle of Operation. - Oil pressure is used to move the
blades to the low pitch position. The blades are moved toward t he
high pitch position by centrifugal force acting on the c ounterw e ights
attached to the blade brackets. The oil pressure is obtained fr om
the engine a nd the flow of the oil is controlled by a constant speed
control located on · the top side of the engine nose casting, which
automatical!y regulates the amount of oil which enters.or drains from
the cylinder of the propeller.

6. Fi~e Extinguishers
tI.
~· Portiible Fire Extinguisher. - A portable, Walter Kidde Lux ,
Mode l 2A, hand operated, carbon dioxide fire extinguisher, of two-
pound capacity, is. installed in brackets aft and to the left of the
rear . cockpit ~3eat. The extinguisher is readily accessible to the oc -
cupant o~ the rear seat. A piston grip, trigger and extension hose
are provided for operating the fire extinguisher. For further inf or-
mation , refer to Bureau of Aeronautics 1 Specification M-106a.
, b . Pressure Fire Extinguisher , - In addition to the portable
fire extingui~i her, provisions are made for flooding the engine com-
partment and carburetor air mixing chamber with carbon dioxide gas.
A five- pound 1apacity, carbon dioxide (C0 2 ) bottle, (American-LaFrance-
Foamite Corp. i or equivalent), fitted with a quick release, seat-type .
valve, is installed at the right side of the fuselage, immediately
aft of the firewall . The release handle (painted RED) for operati on
of the pressur·e fire extinguisher system is clamped to the fuselag e
..: tructure at the right forward side :Jf the .f ront cockpit. A turn
clockwise and a quick, short pull on this handle , will open a valve
at top of .carbon dioxide bottle, discharging its contents through a
lead line to t;he upper right side of the engine mounting ring . From
each side of a "tee" fitting at the end of' the lead l ine, the gas
( passes througtl a perforated line extending around the inner side of
\. . the mounting r ing, and aft along the lower tubes of the engine mount
structure. I t is from these two perforated lines that the gas is
sprayed about the engine compartment . The right perforated line is
plugged at it a end and the lef't connects, by means of a flexible hose,
into the duct .located between the carburetor and the air mixing cham-
ber, thus floc·ding those units. A safety line extending from the bot-
tle h as an outlet at the forward end of the right fuselage side panel .
A red celluloid indicator disc is provided at end of line to provide
inspection of the system. The rupture of the disc serves as a warning
that .the cylinder has been discharged prematurely due to the high tem-
::· pera t ure and 11res sure·.

(3) Fuel Selector Valves! - Fuel selector valve controls are_
mounted on the control shelf at th~ left side of each cockpit. Thes·e
valves operate a Type G-2A, AN4004-'-3 fuel cock thr.ou~h a gear box that
is common to both. The dials have :four positions - OFF", "RIGHT",
"LEFT" and 11 RESERVE". The two fuel compartments are not interconnect -
ed and therefore, it is necessary to switch from one tank to .the other
and then to the reserve for continuous maximum range operation. · De-
sired fuel cock settings should always be determined by click or feel,
and not solely by dependence on the position of the control handle
poin~er. The fuel pressure warning light will illuminate when the
carburetor fuel pressure falls,. indicating that the compartment from
which engine is operating is empty. Approximately ten seconds of con-
tinuous smooth engine operation wi~l remain . Therefore, it is neces-
sary to immediately switch to a fu~l compartment if smooth operation
1
is to be maintained.
(4) Fuel Unit: - The hand fuel pump is an integral part of
the Type AEL-1 fuel unit, installec on the lower forward side of the
fi rewall . This unit also comprises a fuel pressure relief valve, a
~uel check valve, and a fuel strainer with sump and drain cock, con-
tained in one housing . A handle for operating the hand fuel pump is
located on the control shelf at the left sid~ of each cockpit, be-
tween the rudder and elevator trim jtab control wheels. The control
/' levers are interconnected by a rod~ and connected to the hand pump
'\_ arm by means of a push-pull rod and. bellcrank mounted on oall bear-
ings. The function of the hand fuel pump is to obtain fuel pressure
when the engine is not running and .is to be used in the event of en-
gine driven fuel pump failure. In ~ufficient operation of the hand
pump will be indicated by the fuel ,pressure warning light .
(5) Engine Primer: ~ An ~ngine primer pump and operating
handle, 11 Parker 11 Spec. 28130, is installed at the right side o:f th e
front cockpit instrument panel. F ~e l is pumped by means of primer
pump from the discharge side of the hand fuel pump to engine fuel out-
le t distributor on cylinder No. 9 ~ntake pipe. To operate, push i n on
handle and rotate counter-clockwise. This unlocks handle and a.llows
pump to be operated. NOTE: Make certain handle is . pushed in and t u rn-
ed clockwise to the "OFF" positio.h when priming operations are complet-
ed .
(6) Fuel Switch-Over Signal: - A Type C-1 fuel switch-over
signal assembly is installed just aft of the firewall at the right
side of the fuselage. This unit op~rate s a Type A-1 fuel signal lamp
assemb ly which is installed on the ~- ight side of the instrument panel
in the front cockpit. The carburet r fuel pressure, when above 2,
plus or minus 1/4 lb./sq.in., exert enough· pressure on the ~ellows
and spring within the signal assemb y to maintain an open circuit.
Upon reduction of the pressure, the bellows extend, allowing the elec-
12._··· trical contacts which are located in a separate compartment to comp lete

'
the circuit, and ~pe~ate the signal lamp. When the fuel supply in the __
compartment .from which the e·ngine is being operated is exhausted, ·t;h·e
fuel pressure ¥ill drop and cause the signal lamp to operate for ap-
proxim9. tely te!l (10) seconds before engine failure. Also, when hand
fuel pump operation is insufficient to maintain the required fuel pres-
sure, the signal will operat e. A test switch, located on front of the
signal lamp assembly, is provided for checking the operation of the
lamp.
o, Fil.li.:ig F'uel Compartments. - A fuel compartment filler unit
is located on vhe upper surface of the wing center section, at each
side of the fuselc.ge. A fuel hose nozzle grounding jack is - provided
at the bottom of each fuselage side panel. Each compartment accommo-
dates 90.5 U. S. gallons of fuel, making a total of 181 U. S. gallons
of fuel. A standpipe in the left compartment provides for a 20-gallon
reserve. A fuel quantity gauge of the built-in float type is att~ched
directly to the upper surface of each compartment, at each side of the
front cockpit seat. The gauges are readily visible from both cockpits
and are provided with lights which may be turned on from either cock-
pit. Gauges are accurate when the airplane is in a level flight posi-
tion only. Therefore, it is necessary to fill tanks to overflowing
when airplane is in the three-point·. position. A drain line is provid-
e d for the filler unit, and is arranged to conduct over flowing fuel
away from the airplane . When the airplane is in flight, the fuel
gauges indica"te fi'Ve gallons more than actual fuel when read from rear
cockpit.
c. Drai~ing Fuel System. - To drain fuel sump to remove any ac-
cumulation of water and fo reign matter, open drain cocks extending
from rear of t-.iel ;compartment sump. Access to the drain cock is pro-
vided by means of ~ door at the rear of the sump fairing . For com-
plete drainage o.f ~the fuel compartments, remove ent ire sump fairing
and remove strainer plugs to hasten flow of fuel. Drainage of the
fuel strainer sump is accomplis~ied by means of a drain cock at bottom
of fuel unit _ located at lower forward side of firewall. Access to
drain .cock is provided by Dzus fastened hinged door located at the
bottom of the cowlihg.
d. Fuel Compartment Maintenance.
(1) General: - In the repair and replacement o.f parts of the
fuel compartments, all seams should be joined and seals should be cov-
ered. with a zinc ciiFomate plastic compound (manufactured b¥ W.P.
Fuller Company, Los Angeles , California, or the equivalent). The com-
pound is of two co istencies: Typ e No. 1-X may be a~plied by hand
and Type No. 2 by a plicator (paint pressure pot type) or stiff brush.
Apply compound to i terior of compartments only, and faying surface

c. Draining Oil System. - To drain oil system, it is necessary
to reiiiov·e the lower ·right se·ction of the removable engine compartment -l -
cowl assembly and open the access door at bottom of oil temperature
air intake scoop. Place a suitable receptacle under the oil drain
r: I
line, terminating at the· access door. Open 11 Y" drain valve located
o n .right side of engine compartment.
d. 'Oil Tank Installation. - The oil tank is mounted by means of
pajdea metal straps to the two upper cross tubes attached to the en-
g i n e mount structure. The strap padding consists of soft felt, cov-
e r e d by mercerized cotton cloth dipped in varnish with excess remo ved.
The padding may be cemented to the straps for easier handling at as-
sembly and must be secured to straps with waxed linen cord wrappings
at i ntervals of approximately six inches. Secure ends of upper and
lowe r straps to fitt i ngs on cross tubes and lay oil tank on lower
stra ps wi th filler cap on left side. Hinge the upper straps over t op
of t ank and connect turnbuckles . When proper alignment is obtained,
t i g hten turnbuckles and safety with wire. At the top of the oil tank,
connect the oil cooler to oil tank line and the vent line. At the
bo t t om of the oil tank install the oil temperature control valve, if
n ot already installed, and connect the lines to and from the engine
and the line fro m the oil cooler to the oil temperature control valve.
Use suitable rubber hose connections and clamps in making the above
conne ctions.

b .. Carburetor Ai~ Control. - Cold air from the air inlet scoop, -
or hot air from the exhaust manifold shroud, may be taken into the · -
carouretor through a valve in the air mixing chamber below the car-
buretor. The control, ; incorporating notches for vernier adjustment,
is mounted on the forward end of the control shelf at the left side
of the front cockpit. The control handle is pulled back to obtain
hot air and pushed forward to admit cold air. Intermediate positions
of the control will position the valves to allow va~ying mixtures of .
hot and cold air to ent.er the mixing chamber. (See air intake dia-
gra~, page 85.) ·
c. Carburetor Ail:' Temperature Indicator. - A carburetor air
temperature indicator, , grruiuated in degrees (C), ' is mounted on the
main instrument panel ?f the front cockpit. The air temperature in-
dicator is actuated by i a thermometer inserted in the duct assembly
between the mixing cha~ber and carburetor.
10. Landing Gear
a. Description.
( 1) General: , ..: The landing gear of' the SNJ -2 Airplane com-
plete ly retracts inboai~d into the wing center section, just f'orward
of the f'ront spar. Th~ gear is of' the single leg, half-fork type,
I
'·-. and is supported on thEJ front spar of the center section. Retracti on
is accomplished by meai1s of' an engine driven ~ydraulic pump or a hand
oper ated hydraulic pump, located in the front cockpit. The operation
1~ either case is cont~olled essentially by a selector valve lever lo-
cated in each cockpit. , Power control levers are used in addition to
the selector valve lever, when operating with the engine driven pump.
Positive mechanical lat ches and lock pins are provided for the retract-
ed and extended positi©ns, respectively. Both locking mechanisms are
interconnected with thGi selector valve control levers by means of rod
assemblies and bellcranks. A mechanical position indicator is provid-
ed at the left side of.the f'ront cockpit to show the position of each
strut at all times. A'warning horn is also provided and will operate
when the landing gear is not l ocked in the extended position and the
R.P.M. of the engine is ibelow 1000. Detailed instructions for adjust-
ing the warning device vtill be f'ound on page 140, of' this Handbook.
An instruction plate for operating the hydra-u.lic system is located
adjacent to the mechanical position indicator on the control shelf' at
the left side of the front cockpit. For· landing gear controls and
additional operating in~_tructions, ref'er to page 133 of this Handbook .

should be taken to see that the mechanism is kept clean and free from
foreign ·substances. - Prior t·o installation of any parts, they should·
be thoroughly cleaned with white gasoline and coated with mineral oil
as used in the hydraulic system. Replacement of gaskets is not nec-
essary unless they are in poor condition. During assembly, make cer-
tain that all sealing mediums, retainers, guides, pins, washers, etc.,
are properly installed and safetied as required. After the assembly
o·f any unit, or part of a unit, it should be pressure tested. Refer
to the ensuing paragraphs for sealing medium requirements and pres-
sure testing.
All "Para packing rings for hydraulic valves men-
tioned in ensuing paragraphs are manufactured by the Linear Packing
and Rubber Company, Inc., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
(c) Testing: - For testing the hydraulic system, a
Parker No. 8-1239-10 plug valve is incorporated in the suction line
of the hydraulic system, and is attached to the lower left tube of
the engine structure. A Parker No. 6-4-4 ROT check valve is incor-
porated on the pressure line at the same location. Remove plugs
from valves e.nd connect test e'quipment. A control on the suction
line plug valve may be turned to "ENGINE PUMP 11 or "TEST PUMP 11 , as
required.
l
\
Whenever a hydraulic unit is disassembled, re-
paired parts or cups replaced, or merely inspected, it should be
pressure tested after assembly. Information pertinent to testing
the hydraulic units is incorporated in the ensuing paragraphs. The
tests require a high pressure hand pump, pressure gauge (3000 lbs.),
fluid reservoir and the necessary lines and fittings. In the fol-
lowing test instructions, the phrase "apply test pressure" shall in-
clude all of the following procedure: -
Apply a pressure of 2500 lbs./sq.in. in the port
indicated. If the pressure shows a slight tendency to fall off dur-
ing the first half minute, recharge to 2500 lbs./sq.in. Then allow
unit to stand for 15 minutes, at the end of which time there should
be no reduction of pressure evident. If the pressure has fallen off
during this period, inspect unit for leaks.
(2) Filling Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir: - Access to the hy-
draulic fluid reservoir is gained through a hinged, Dzus fastened
door located on the left side of the fuselage between the cockpits.
An instruction plate for filling reservoir is located on the inside
of this door. The instructions contained on this.plate and the in-
formation contained on the plate attached to the reservoir are as
follows: With airplane in normal three-point position, fill the
reservoir to overflowing, inasmuch as a visual inspection of the
fluid contents through the filler opening is misleading. Total

(d) Pressure Relief Vdlve Adjustment: - The pressure
relief valve is incdrporated· in the ~elector valve unit. The relief·
valve adjusting screw is located on the rear end center of the con-
trol unit. To adjust valve, back-oft on Iarge hexagonal nut approx-
imately 1-1/2 turns. Then, with engine running at 1200 R.P.M., en-
gage p:riessure control and adjust threaded stem until pressure of'
1000 lbs./sq.in. is indicated on pressure gauge in cockpit. Adjust
in to increase pressure, and out to decrease it. When proper pres-
sure is obtained, hold stem from turning, tighten hexagonal nut and
safety with loclcwire.
~ (e) One-Way Check Valves: - A one-way check valve is
incorporated in the front portion of the selector valve unit, di-
rectly above each selector valve, ana; one on the left side of the
selector valve unit at center. A plug is provided at the end of
each valve to gain access to the valV;e mechanism inside.

NORTH AMERICAN AV~ATION,
Report No .. NA-8661
INC. Page 133
I.
a. Normal oJeration
(1) General: - The retractable landing gear and wing flaps
are hydraulically actuated, either by.the engine driven pump or by
the hand pump. The landing gear and flaps may be operated selective-
ly or simultaneou::::ly; however, in the latter case with a decrease
in the speed of operation. After the hydraulic pre.ssure control
lever,·marked "PUSH", is pushed, set the control handles at the de-
sired positions. In retracting the landing gear, move the control
handle from "DOWN 11 to "UP" position fairly rapidly. If movement is
made slowly, the hydraulic pressure may reach the retracting strut
¢ before the lock pin is disengaged. The lock will then be difficult
to disengage. If this occurs, first return handle to "DOWN", posi-
tion and then, whqn ready, move control quickly to "UP" position.
It is not necessar,y to hold the pressure control lever down after it
has been pushed, ss it operates on the time-lag principle, remaining
engaged a given length of time regardless of the pressure in the
system. The control should stay engaged at least twice as long as
necessary to complete any operation of landing gear or flaps. An
instruction plate for operation of the hydraulic system is located
on the control shelf at the left side of the front cockpit.
(2) Landing Gear: - The airplane is fitted with a landing
gear warning horn and a mechanical position indicator; the latter
\ indicator is located at the forward end of the control shelf at the
left side of the I'ront cockpit. The position indicator should not
be used as a safe landing indicator, since it does not indicate the
position of the 11 DOWN" lock pins. Retraction of the gear can be ac-
complished from the front cockpit only; however, gear can be extend-
ed from either coc:kpi t. See foregoing page 123, of this Secti::m.
· (3) Warning Horn:_- The landing gear warning horn, 1329-A,
12V, 11 Klaxon", is ,located at the left side of the fuselage between
the two cockpits, and acts as the warning device to indicate an un-
saf'e landing condi.tio:h. The horn is interconnected with the landing
¢ gear "DOWN" position lock pins and the throttle control in such a
manner that when the throttle is retarded for landing and the landing
gear is not in the fully extended and locked position, the horn will
warn of the unsaf'e landing condition. WARNING: On Airplanes, Serial
·Nos. 2548 to 2572, inclusive, the warning horn is also interconnected
with the check-off indicator. Before landing be sure indicator con-
trol knob is turned to "LANDING"; otherwise horn will not !'unction.
(4) Warning Horn Release: - The landing gear warning horn
release is located pn the electrical distribution panel at the left
¢ side of the front ctckpit of Airplanes, Serial Nos. 2008 to 2043, in-
clusive, only. The purpose of the warning release is to render the
warning horn inoper tive when it is desired to close the throttle
during flight maneu ers with the wheels in the up position. Opening
the throttle positiJn to approximately the equivalent of'

(Landing Gear and Flap Operation, cont.)
1200jR.P.M. automatically reinstates the warning hcrn, subjecting it
to normal operation.-
(5) Flaps: - The wing is equipped with trailing edge type
flaps, hydraulically operated. A flap position indicator, calibrated
in degrees, is located on the forward end of the control shelf at the
left side of the front cockpit. Prior to landing, if it is desired
to lower .the flaps to any intermediate position within the 45° range
of travel, as indicated by the flap position indicator, place handle
in 11 DOWN 11 position, and as flaps attain desired position, quickly
place handle in center, 11 LOCK" position.
b. Emergency Operation.
, (1) Hydraulic Hand Pump: - the event of engine driven In
hydraulic pump failure, use the emergency hand pump located at the
left ;side of the front cockpit. The procedure for operating the land-
ing gear and/or flaps with the hand pump is the same as normal opera-
tion, except that it is unnecessary to press hydraulic power control
lever or place the landing gear control lever in 11 LOCK 11 position when
an iEtermediate flap position is desired.
(2) Hydraulic Failure: - In the event of complete hydraulic
failure; i,e., both engine driven pump and hand pump failure in the
hydraulic system, the landing gear will fall when the control handle
is set for the "DOWN" position. After the landing gear has reached ·
the down position during this emergency operation, without the use of
either hydraulic pump, the latches may not engage until the wings of
the airplane are rocked to throw the gear into place. Landing may be
completed if the warning horn indicates a safe landing. As a further
emergency measure, in the event the selector valve or control handle
jams in such a way that the control cannot be moved, a by-pass valve
and nod disengaging pin are provided. The valve is located on the
left side of the front cockpit on the diagonal fuselage tube adjacent
to tt,e landing gear position indicators. The pull ring for disengag-
ing the landing gear up lock pull rod is located in the front cock-
pit, directly to the left of ·the pilot's seat.
0
To lower gear, open
globe valve by turning handle counter-clockwise NOT MORE THAN 1/2
turn. Pull handle and then pull landing gear up lock control rod,
which will have been disengaged from control lever when hand-le was
pulled.
. (3) Landin~ Gear Latch: - Failure of the spring in the ·
"DOWN" position late may prevent the latch pin from going into place.
This dondition will. be indicated when the warning horn operates, in-
dicat~g an unsafe landing condition when the landing gear has other-
wise nctioned normally. It is then necessary to push control hand-
le doT to extreme end of sector assembly along area marked: 11 Emergen-
cy - ush Down to Engage Pin" in front cockpit by first lifting the
( --- pin o the handle out of engagement with the stop on quadrant. Safe
(;___ landing is then, as usual, indicated when warning horn ceases to op-
I erate.: The extra portion of the control handle travel is to be used
'
only in this emergency and not for normal operation. WARNING: Do
not push lever until the landing gear is down .

(8) Lighting:
(a) Light Distribution Boxes: - A light distribution
box, located forward of each instrument panel, forms a junction box
from which wiring is provided to the compass lamp, right cockpit
light, and to the five instrument panel lamps in that cockpit. From
the light distribution box in the front cockpit wiring also runs to
the fuel·pressure signal.
(b) Navigation Lights: - Standard Navy Type navigation
lights are installed in the conventional locations. A red wing tip
lamp assembly, Type F-3, NAF-38972-1, is installed at the tip of the
left wing, a green wing tip lamp assembly, Type F-4, NAF-38972-2, is
installed at the tip of the right wing, and a clear tail lamp assem-
oly, Type D-22, NAF-38690-4, is installed in the trai]ing edge of
the rudder. The navigation lights are controlled fro~ the front
cockpit electrical distribution panel.
(c) Landing Lights: - A landing light assembly, Type
A-8, A.C. Dwg. No. 36n3458, is installed in the leadir:g edge of each
outer wing panel. Light beam of landing lights, which are of the
fixed focus type, is governed by A.C. Dwg. No. H36J30Q3; that is,
they are arranged so that the center line of the lightj beam of each
light is parallel to the ground line when the airplane is in the nor-
( mal three-point position and pointed outboard 10° frorr. the center
~ ...
line of the airplane. Each light is fitted with an anti-glare device.
The landing lights are controlled selectively from the front· cockpit
distribution panel. To gain access to landing lamp, extract the
screws securing the hinged leading edge cover to the surface of the
outer wing panel, and hinge the assembly upward. Remcve the locking
wire and screw, clamping the metal lamp lens retaining rim to the
lamp and remove the lens. Further access to the land~ng lamp and
its mechanism may be gained through an access door onlthe lower slir-
face of the panel, just aft of the lamp assembly~
(d) Cockpit Lighting: - Each cockpit is amply i~lumi
nated by two lights. These lights ar~ mounted on a level with the
cockpit enclosure track, on each side of· the fuselage.. The light
assemblies are of the swivel type and may be adjusted in such posi-
tions as to enable each man to see any and all controls, as well as
to provide ample light for map reading and chart work. The cockpit
lights in each cockpit are controlled from their respec.tive distri-
bution panels in.either cockpit by means of rheostats. . ·
. i:
(e) Instrument Lighting: - The instrume!. panels are
indirectly lighted by five (5) lamps located behind a ·nged reflec-
tor on each panel, and the compass in each panel is se rately
lighted by an integral lamp. The panel lamps and the c mpass lamp
are turned on individually and the.ir intensity of illuniination is.
{~ governed by separate rheostat· controls located on the e;lectrical dis-
(

vided with a light. The fuel gauge P,.ights, N.A. Dwg. 25-54052, are
controllable from either cockpit by means of a switch located on· the -
electrical distribution panel. The instrument panel lamps, compass
lamp, fuel gauge lamps and fuel· swit~h-over lamp are replaceable
during flight. Refer to page 139, of this Handbook.
(9) Electrical Controls:
(a) General: - All switches and rheostats for the con-
trol of electrical equipment are located on the electrical distribu-
tion panel at the left side of either cockpit, with the exception of
a test switch on front of the fuel pressure warning signal; see page
74; of this Section. Each switch and rheostat is plainly marked with
engraved letters to indicate its ope~ation. Both distribution panels
contain active fuses. · i
¢ (b) Front Cockpit: - ~he front cockpit distribution
panel is provided with a voltammeter.. Normally, the vol tammeter in-
dicates generator amperage; however, a selector switch, located just
below the indicator, can be turned to the left or right to indicate
generator voltage and battery voltage, respectively. Rheostat con-
trols are provided for control of instrument panel lights and compass
light. Luminous-tipped toggle switches are provided for control of
generator main line, (see page 136),ileft and right landing lights,
fuel gauge lights, navigation lights;. battery main line, and fuel pres-
sure warning signal. A landing gear warning horn release switch is
also provided on Airplanes, Serial Nos. 2008 to 2043, inclusive; see
page 133 of this section.
(c) Rear Cockpit: - The rear cockpit electrical dis-
tribution panel contains rheostat controls for instrument panel
lights, cockpit lights and compass light. A luminous-tipped toggle
switch is provided for control of' f'ue!l gauge lights. All other

NOTE: Any-change in the travel of the down position lock.
pins or the landing gear struts will necessitate changing
,,.. the warning switch adjustment.
o. When certain the correct adjustment has been obtained, and
all lock nuts are tight, replace switch box covers.
(5) Landing Gear Throttle Switch Adjustment:
(a) General: - The throttle switch is located on the
forward left side of the firewall. Adjustment of the throttle
switch must be accomplished after the landing gear warning switches
are correctly adjusted. Refer to foregoing paragraph ( 4 ), of this
Section. Prior to the actual adjustment of the sw~tch actuating
rod, adhere to the following procedure: -
1. Jaclc airplane to permit full movement of landing gear
struts.
2. Set the throttle control to the position predetermined to
be the position of the control when coming in for a land-
ing (approximately 1000 R.P.M.). This position is 5/8 inch
forward of the closed throttle position, measured from the
stop at the rear end of the throttle guide to back of throt-
tle handle.
3. Pull the landing gear lock pins by means of the lever in
the front cockpit. With the lock pins in the out position,
the warning horn circuits are complete, so that the throt-
tle switch adjustment can be accomplished.
4. Disconnect warning horn and use a light in the event it is
desired to eliminate the noise of the horn during switch
adjustment.

2 0. Handling
a. General. - Lift, pull and push the airplane only by the
means-provided and in accordance with the instructions outlined in
the following paragraphs. Care should be exercised in all handling
operations to prevent damage to the airplane and equipment. Refer
to Bureau of Aeronautics' Spec. SR-85 for additional hoisting infor-
mation. Also refer ;:o page 15~ for Airplane Handling Diagram.
(
\ £· Towing and :racking. - Towing and jacking the airplane is
accomplished "oy mearn:i of a towing ring and a jacking point, located
on the inboard side of each landing gear wheel axle. Blocks equip-
ped with jacking points are installed at two well marked locations in
the leading edges of· the outer wing panels, approximately 30 inches
outboard of the wing· joint bolting angle. A tail jacking point is
also provided and is installed on the fuselage, just forward of the
tail wheel. Wing ja~~king points may easily be removed, and stowed
in the baggage compartment of the airplane. Hang an approximate
200 .·pound weight frmn lift tube when jacking tail, engine installed.
c. Lifting. - A lift tube is provided in the aft portion of
the monocoque fuselage, just forward of the empennage. A bar up to
1-5/8 inches diameter·may be passed through this tube, and by sup-
port of personnel or hoist, the rear portion of the airplane may be
lifted. To prevent damage to the lift tube, the lifting bar must be
placed completely through the tube.
d. Hoisting. - ~he forward portion.of the airplane may be
hoisted by inserting llioisting shackles (stowed in baggage compart-
ment) in sockets provf ded on the upper surface of the wing center
section, at the front spar just inboard of each bolting angle. Ac-
cess to sockets is ga ned by removing screw plug. .
