The MM has been prepared in accordance with the Air Transport Association (ATA) Specification
Number 100 for Manufacturers Technical Data.
The MM is divided into 5 major sections. Each of these sections is subdivided into chapters. A list
of effective pages and the table of contents are provided at the beginning of each MM chapter.
Each chapter is made distinct by a separator sheet with the chapter number and the title.
(1) The page numbering system consists three-element numbers separated by dashes.
The last element permits the identification of the individual units in a system or subsystem.
However, this comes only then for carrying if the extent of description requires this.
Example:
27 - 10 - 00

(2) When the chapter/system element number is followed with zeros in the section/subsystem
and subject/unit element number (28-00-00), the information is applicable to the entire
system.
(3) When the section/subsystem element number is followed with zeros in the subject/unit
element number (28-20-00), the information is applicable to subsystem within the system.
(4) The subject/unit element number is used to identify information applicable to units within
the subsystems.
This breakdown of the chapters provides a good overview and facilitates exchange of revised
pages. Since the most of systems are relatively simple and noncomplex, the third element is
used only at more complicated systems, i.e. if it appears necessary a unit or device to treat in
greater detail.
(5) All maintenance data given in the MM is separated into specific types of information.
That facilitates work with the manual. For this purpose, page number blocks are reserved
depending on type of information.

B. Effectivity
(1) The MM starts with a List of Effective Chapters. Each chapter is listed with the date of issue
or revision.
(2) To identify the aircraft an effectivity statement (i.e. Garmin Avionics) or a six-digit numeric
indicator is shown in the effectivity column in the table of contents if applicable.
(a) The six-digit numeric indicator begins with the last three digits of the lowest assigned
number, to indicate first effectivity, and ends with the last three digits of the highest
assigned number, to indicate last effectivity, of an unbroken sequence of assigned
numbers. A hyphen is shown between the numbers. Open ended effectivity is
indicated by "999" in the last effectivity if applicable. For example: 023-999 indicates
aircraft 023 and subsequent.
NOTE: Pages with no effectivity block may be followed by pages which have effectivity
blocks and vice versa and bear identical page numbers.
C. Revisions
(1) Maintenance manual revisions, result by different reasons (regulation changes, technical
changes, typographical errors and so on), will be published regularly.
A notification about a revision contains short data to explain the respective revision and
contains:
(2) In the event of urgently necessary revisions between regular updating, temporary revisions
will be published. The relevant manual pages are yellow and are usually considered during
the next scheduled revision of the maintenance manual.

WEIGHING
1. General
A. For safety and in order to achieve the performances and flying characteristics, which are designed
in the aircraft, it should be flown with the weight and center of gravity (C.G.) position within the
approved operating range.
Whenever new equipment is added or any modification work is done, which may have an effect
on the empty weight or C.G. position, an empty weight determination and a center of gravity
location is to be redefined.
3. Weighing Procedure
A. Weighing can be carried out by means of mechanical or electrical scales. The instructions of the
scale manufacturer are to be considered.
Preparation:
(1) Be certain that all items checked in the aircraft equipment list are installed in the proper
location in the aircraft.
(2) Clean and dry the aircraft, remove foreign items such as bags, rags, tools, etc.
(3) De-fuel aircraft except for unusable fuel (refer to 12-11-00).
(4) Fill engine operating fluids (oil, coolant) and brake fluid up to the maximum markings (refer
to 12-12-00, 12-14-00, 12-15-00).
(5) Move sliding seats to the most forward position.
(6) Retract flaps completely.
(7) Place all control surfaces in neutral position.
After these preparations, place scales under each wheel. Be sure that no side forces act on the
scales to avoid wrong readings.
After this level the aircraft such as described in section 08-20-00 "Leveling".
NOTE: Weigh the aircraft inside a closed building to prevent errors in the scale readings
due to wind.
Close the canopy and then weigh the aircraft. The weight shown on each scale can now be
entered into the weight data form (see Abb.201). Deduct the non-aircraft parts, if any (i. e. wheel
chocks), from each reading.

STORAGE
1. Storage - up to 30 Days
A. The following guidelines are applicable for situations in which the aircraft is not to be used for
periods of time between 7 and 30 Days. They are meant to help prevent deterioration of the
aircraft during periods of non-use.
(1) To prepare the engine for storage, check for correct oil level and add oil if necessary to bring
the level to the full mark. Then, run the engine for at least five minutes at 1200 to 1500 RPM
with oil and cylinder heat temperatures in the normal operating range. Shut down the
engine.
(2) Top up the fuel tanks to prevent condensation of water in the tanks.
(3) Install covers over the cabin area to keep out moisture and sunlight. Install Pitot tube cover.
To prevent oxidation of the finish, the use of covers over the composite fuselage during
extended periods of outdoor tie-down, especially in summer time, is recommended.
WARNING: BEFORE ROTATING THE PROPELLER BLADES, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE
IGNITION SWITCH IS IN THE OFF-POSITION AND THE THROTTLE IS
CLOSED.
(4) After every seven days during storage, rotate the propeller by hand. After rotating the
engine six revolutions, stop the propeller 60° to 120° from its former position.
(5) If, at the end of 30 days, the aircraft will not be removed from storage, the engine should be
started and run in a safe area. The preferred method is to fly the aircraft for at least 30
minutes.

Therefore, one should always keep the entire aircraft clean especially the leading edges of the
wing.
B. Information on preventive measures on protection such as waxing specific surfaces is also given.
2. Safety Precautions
A. Read and adhere to all manufacturers instructions, warnings and cautions on the cleaning/solvent
compounds used.
B. Do not use silicone-based wax to polish the aircraft exterior.
C. Do not clean aircraft at ambient temperatures close to 0°C or above with water.
D. Cover all lubricated parts during any cleaning procedure.
E. During any application of cleaners (e.g. cleaning the engine) containing solvent, the other surfaces
are to be covered carefully or to be equipped with other protection.
A. Cleaning Canopy
(1) Park the aircraft in a hangar or in the shadows, avoid places with a lot of dust caused by wind
or vehicles.
(2) To prevent scratches, wash the canopy carefully with plenty of mild soap and water solution,
using the palm of the hand to feel and dislodge dirt and mud.
A soft cloth, chamois leather or sponge should be used.
(3) Rinse thoroughly and then dry with a clean moist chamois.
(4) Remove oil and grease with a cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol.

1. General
A. This section provides the necessary information to clean the aircraft interior properly. Several
recommended types of cleaning agents for different materials and the respective cleaning and
care procedures are contained herein.
A. Interior panels such as sidewalls, door panels etc. may be cleaned using a mild detergent solution.
Stubborn deposits may be removed using a suitable material cleaner in accordance with
manufacturer's instructions. If in doubt, apply a small amount of cleaner to a small unobtrusive
part and test it for reaction.
A. The instrument panel and center pedestal can be wiped with a slightly moistened cloth. Ensure
the ALT / BAT switch is in OFF position. Put electrical systems and components of the aircraft into
operation only after complete drying the instrument panel.
A. The feet area, the area under the seats as well the baggage compartment should be cleaned
regularly with a vacuum.
B. The carpet consists of high-quality, dirt repelling material and usually demands only a minimum
of maintenance. If it becomes soiled, a standard carpet cleaner can be used.
5. Cleaning Seats
A. The seat upholstery consists of a dirt repelling, hardwearing material. Even they should be
cleaned regularly to keep them in good condition. The following recommends should be
considered.
B. To remove dust and loose dirt from seats, clean first with a vacuum.
For cleaning and care use foam type detergent, such as commercial available for car seats. Follow
the manufacturer's instructions.
C. Blot up any spilled liquid promptly with an absorbent tissue or cloth. Press the blotting material
firmly and hold it for several seconds. Continue blotting until no more liquid is taken up.
Scrape off sticky materials cautiously with a dull knife, then clean area as required.
Oil spots may be removed with household spot removers. Before using, read the instructions on
the container, test it on an obscure place on the seat and use it sparingly.

UNSCHEDULED SERVICING
1. General
A. This section contains those instructions necessary to carry out servicing that is considered by the
manufacturer to be normally unscheduled for example: for ice and snow removal from a parked
aircraft.
CAUTION: DO NOT ELIMINATE SNOW AND ICE ON SURFACES USING PEAKED AND
SHARP-EDGED INSTRUMENTS.
NEVER USE DE-ICING FLUIDS TO REMOVE SNOW OR ICE DEPOSITS FROM THE
AIRCRAFT.
HEATED DE-ICING FLUIDS CAN DAMAGE COMPOSITE STRUCTURES FROM THE
EXTREME TEMPERATURE CHANGE. SOME DE-ICING FLUIDS MAY DAMAGE
ACRYLIC GLASS OF THE CANOPY.
A. After snowfall, the snow should be removed immediately from the surface of the aircraft to
prevent that after a thawing period the snow water freezes on the surface and/or in slits or gaps
again.
B. Procedure
(1) Remove loose snow with a whiskbroom from the wing surface working outwards from the
wing root.
NOTE: The areas between wings and ailerons and stabilizers and rudders are to be
treated especially carefully.

1. General
A. This section contains information on the identification of bolts, on the correct usage of bolts and
nuts, and torque data.
2. Bolt Types
A. The bolts used in the AQUILA AT01 are of AN, MS, LN and DIN Specifications. They can be
identified by code marking(s) on the bolt heads. These markings generally denote the material of
which the bolt is made, whether the bolt is a standard type or a special purpose bolt, and
sometimes include the manufacturer.

3. Torques
NOTE: When a specific torque is not provided in the maintenance instructions contained in this
Maintenance Manual, use the standard torque patterns shown in table 201.
A. A correct torque application is very important. Undertorque can result in unnecessary wear of
nuts and bolts, as well as the parts they secure. Overtorque can cause failure of a bolt or nut from
overstressing the threaded areas. Uneven or additional loads that are applied to the assembly
may result in wear or premature failure. To ensure that correct torque is applied, observe the
following:
(1) Be sure that the torque applied is for the size of the bolt shank not the wrench size.
(2) Calibrate the torque wrench at least once a year, or immediately after it has been abused or
dropped, to ensure continued accuracy.
(3) Be sure the bolt and nut threads are clean and dry, unless otherwise specified by the
manufacturer.
(4) Run the nut down to near contact with the washer or bearing surface and check the friction
drag torque required to turn the nut. Whenever possible, apply the torque to the nut and not
the bolt. This will reduce rotation of the bolt in the hole and reduce wear.
(5) Add the friction drag torque to the desired torque. This is referred to as "final torque," which
should register on the indicator or setting for a snap-over type torque wrench.
(6) Apply a smooth even pull when applying torque pressure. If chattering or a jerking motion
occurs during final torque, back off the nut and retorque.
(7) Many applications of bolts in aircraft/engines require stretch checks prior to reuse. This
requirement is due primarily to bolt stretching caused by overtorquing.
(8) When installing a castle nut, start alignment with the cotter pin hole at the minimum
recommended torque plus friction drag torque.
(9) Do not exceed the maximum torque plus the friction drag. If the hole and nut castellation do
not align, change washer or nut and try again. Exceeding the maximum recommended
torque is not recommended.
(10) When torque is applied to bolt heads or capscrews, apply the recommended torque plus
friction drag torque.
(11) If special adapters are used which will change the effective length of the torque wrench, the
final torque indication or wrench setting must be adjusted accordingly. Determine the
torque wrench indication or setting with adapter installed as shown in figure 02.
B. Table 201/202 shows the recommended torque to be used when the manufacturer within the
maintenance procedures does not supply other specific torque.

1. Introduction
A. The Alternator system supplies the electrical equipment of the AQUILA AT01 with electrical
power if engine is running. That represents main current source in the power supply design.
- Alternator
- Alternator Circuit Breaker
- Alternator Warning Light
- Switch ALT
A. The Alternator is installed on the forward left side of the engine, to the left of the gearbox. The
engine drives it by a drive belt.
The alternator incorporates an internal voltage regulator.
The Alternator circuit breaker is installed within the circuit breaker panel on the far right side of
the instrument panel. The Alternator system is protected by it against overloading.
The red alternator warning light is located within the row of annunciator lights on the instrument
panel above the VHF Transceiver.
B. The Alternator is supplied by an excitation voltage by the battery when turning ON the switch
„ALT / BAT“.
If the engine runs, the alternator generates a three-phase current that is rectified and regulated by
the internal voltage regulator. The voltage regulator gives a 14 V D.C. voltage with an engine
speed at least of 800 R.P.M to the aircraft bus. The maximum current load conducts 40 ampere.
An ammeter is available for monitoring power supply. The voltmeter is connected with the
aircraft bus bar. The ammeter measures the charge or discharge current of the battery. Both
instruments are found on the right instrument panel in the instrument cluster.
Illumination of the alternator warning light and ammeter discharge indications may occur during
low RPM conditions with an electrical load on the system, such as during a low RPM taxi. Under
these conditions, the light will go out at higher RPM.

1. Introduction
A. The battery system supplies the electrical equipment of the AQUILA AT01 if the alternator does
not work. It represents the auxiliary power source in supply design.
- Battery
- Battery relay
- Switch "BAT"
- Voltmeter
- Ammeter
A. The AQUILA AT01 has a 12-volt, 19-ampere hour, lead-acid battery, which is installed in a battery
tray on the front-right side of the firewall. It is accessible if the upper engine cowling is removed.
The battery box is vented. The vent line discharges out the bottom of the engine cowling,
preventing the build up of dangerous or explosive gasses within the engine compartment. The
battery relay is fixed above the battery at the engine mount.
B. To connect battery to the aircraft bus the „BAT“ switch, located on the lower left instrument panel,
must be placed in ON position. As a result, the battery relay is connected to ground. The other
relay terminal is permanent supplied with positive voltage by the battery. In this way the aircraft
bus bar is supplied with current via the battery relay.
An ammeter is available for monitoring power supply. The voltmeter is connected with the aircraft
bus bar. The ammeter measures by means of a shunt the charge or discharge current of the battery.
Both instruments are located on the right instrument panel in the instrument cluster.

1. General
A. This section covers that portion of the system within the aircraft which connects external electrical
power to the aircraft's electrical systems. Includes items such as external power receptacle and
relays.
B. The aircraft is optional equipped with an external power receptacle mounted on the engine
mount's right side just below the battery. The standard, oval shaped, 3-pin receptacle is accessible
through an hinged access door in the right side of the engine cowling. The system includes
further an external power relay attached to the engine mount and an relay behind instrument
panel. For wiring refer to
91-00-01.
Connecting a 12 V DC power supply to the external power receptacle the shorter, third connector
engages the external power relay, which connects the external power to the aircraft main bus.
Simultaneously the battery switch will be disconnected from ground terminal by the second relay
behind the instrument panel. That prevents an energizing of the battery relay while an external
power supply is applied.
The signal power to the external power relay contains an isolation diode to prevent reverse
polarity.

1. Introduction
A. Distribution of electrical power supplied by the alternator and/or battery is accomplished by bus
bars. The bus architecture allows power to be routed to the essential circuitry if any one of the
main power sources fails.
All essential electrical accessories in the system are protected by push pull type circuit breakers
resettable in flight. The circuit breaker panel is on the far right instrument panel. It is labeled as to
each circuit's identity. The circuit breakers have their rated values identified on the top of the
shaft.
B. For power routing throughout the aircraft, refer to wiring diagrams shown in 91-00-00.
A. The AQUILA AT01 electrical system has two main bus bars: the aircraft bus bar and the avionics
bus bar. To the aircraft bus bar, all systems are connected which are essentially for aircraft
operation. The avionics bus bar, supplies the avionics equipment with power.
B. Both, the alternator output and the battery are connected with the aircraft bus via a 50A circuit
breaker. The 50A circuit breakers are located on the right instrument panel within the circuit
breaker panel.
From the aircraft bus bar the current is distributed via circuit breakers to electrical circuits of
several systems and components, and via „AVIONICS“ switch to the avionics bus bar. From there,
it also reaches the several components of the avionics equipment via circuit breakers.
The "AVIONICS" switch allows removing of avionics equipment separately from residual electrical
system.

1. Introduction
A. In the aircraft is an electrical spring force trim system used. An electrical trim actuator changes the
preload of a pair of springs that applies a defined force to the elevator pushrod.
A. For an illustration of elevator trim control design and function refer to Figure 1.
B. The trim system is controlled by a rocker switch, located on the rear portion of the middle console.
Pressing the forward side of the switch will trim nose down; pressing the rear side of the switch
will trim nose up.
The switch activates an electrical trim actuator that is mounted under the baggage compartment
floor panel, parallel to the elevator pushrod.
The electrical circuit of the trim system is protected by a circuit breaker that can be pulled in the
event of a trim system malfunction.

1. Introduction
A. This section describes that portion of the flight control system, which controls the position and
movement of the flaps. Flap control system rigging procedure is provided.
The AQUILA AT01 is equipped with electrical actuated flaps. They are operated and fixed in
desired position by an electrical flap actuator.
A. The wing flaps system consists of a three-position selector switch which is incorporated in the
instrument panel, a LED flap position indicator near the three-position selector switch, the electric
flap actuator, located under the baggage floor, a torque tube, pushrods and the flaps on each wing.
B. The linear flap actuator drives the torque tube interconnected between the left and right flaps.
Limit switches are attached to the flap actuator. They identify flap position and surface travel, and
turn off the actuator once the desired position is achieved i.e: 17° or 35°.
The flap actuator has a slip coupling to prevent mechanical damage if a restriction occurs. In the
event of the electric flap control circuit, torque tube/actuator geometry prevents the flaps from
causing an uncontrollable flight condition.
B. For an illustration of flap control system design and function refer to Figure 1.
