Do not push on the control susfaces or outboard empennage surfaces. When pushing onthe rear fuselage, always apply pressure at the bulkhead to avoid buckling of skin. (il) Parking: Precautions for parking depend principally on lecal ccrditions. As a general precaution, set parking brake or put chacks on wheels and install the locks on the controls’. In high wind conditions, tie-down the aircreit as outlined in the following paragraph, if a hengar is not available. (iii) Tie-Down: When mooring the aircraft in the onan space, head into the wind as far as possible. Secure contral surfaces with the internal control lock or surface lock and set parking brakes, cauTION Do not apply parking brakes when they are over-heated or during cold weather; under such concitions, accumulated: moisture may freeze them..
