INTRODUCTION
This manual contains factory-recommended procedures and instructions for ground handling, ser-
vicing, and maintaining Cessna Model 188 and T188 Series aircraft. Besides serving as a reference
for the experienced mechanic, this book also covers step-by-step procedures for the less experienced.
If properly used, it will better enable the mechanic to maintain the aircraft and thereby establish a
reputation for reliable service.
This service manual is designed for aerofiche presentation. To facilitate the use of the aerofiche,
refer to the aerofiche header for basic information.
KEEPING CESSNA PUBLICATIONS CURRENT
The information in this manual is based on data available at the time for publication, and is supple-
mented and kept current to Cessna Dealers by Customer Care Service Information Letters, Customer
Care News Letters, and Customer Care Owner Advisory Letters published by Cessna Aircraft Com-
pany. In addition to this information, your dealer has been supplied a group of vendor publications
which describe complete disassembly, overhaul, and parts breakdowns of some of the various vendor
equipment items. These vendor publications are all kept current by issuing Vendor Service Bulletins,
etc., to Cessna Aircraft Company, which in turn reissues them under Cessna Vendor Service Bulletin
Notices to all appropriate dealers.
Further, this publication is also kept current in the following two ways:
1. REVISIONS/CHANGES. These are issued to the dealers by Cessna Aircraft Company for
this publication as required, and include only pages that require updating.
2. REISSUE. Manual is reissued to dealers as required, and is a complete manual incorporat-

ing all the latest information and outstanding revisions/changes. It supersedes and re-
places previous issue(s).
REVISIONS/CHANGES and REISSUES can be purchased from your Cessna Dealer or directly from
the Cessna Supply Division, SPA Dept. 703, Cessna Aircraft Company, 5800 East Pawnee, Wichita,
Kansas 67201.
All supplemental service information concerning this manual is supplied to all appropriate Cessna
Dealers so that they have the latest authoritative recommendations for servicing these Cessna air-
craft. Therefore, it is recommended that Cessna owners utilize the knowledge and experience of the
factory-trained Dealer Service Organization.
CUSTOMER CARE SUPPLIES AND PUBLICATIONS CATALOG
A Customer Care Supplies and Publications Catalog is available from your Cessna Dealer or directly
from the Cessna Supply Division, SPA Dept. 703, Cessna Aircraft Company, 5800 East Pawnee,
Wichita, Kansas 67201. This catalog lists all publications and Customer Care Supplies available from
Cessna for prior year models as well as new products. To maintain this catalog in a current status, it

comments you wish to make.
Revision 1 V
Operators. pilots, and maintenance personnel directly concerned with aerial
application of agricultural chemicals must be thoroughly familiar with all
precautionary measures. The following information is provided for the in-
dividual who is not familiar with these chemicals, but who is required to
perform maintenance on agricultural aircraft.
1 Almost all agricultural chemicals are toxic, depending on exposure rate. Some are highly toxic
and can even be fatal if exposure is prolonged or treatment is delayed. Immediate treatment is
a must upon known exposure.
2. Toxic chemicals can enter the body in different ways: inhalation when in vapor form, ingestion
when contaminated foods, drinks. or tobacco products are consumed, and absorption when
chemical passes through skin on contact. The latter is probably most dangerous, because a
very small amount is lethal, and the individual usually doesn't realize he has been con-
taminated.
NOTE
Most common symptoms of exposure are as follows, but not necessarily

in order of appearance:
1) Miosis, constriction of pupils of the eyes, creating a
dimming of vision.
2) Rhinorrhea, excessive nasal discharge, runny nose.
3) Salivation, uncontrolled drooling of the mouth.
41 Constriction or tightness in chest. inability to breathe
deeply enough.
5) Sometimes a cough is evident.
6) Sometimes, but not always, headache, fatigue, anorexia (loss of appetite),
nausea, perspiration, dizziness, twitching, dreaming, irritability, and
mood changes.
Naturally as exposure increases symptoms worsen, and some new ones appear:
1) Cyanosis. bluish or purplish color indicating deficient oxygenation of
the blood.
2) Convulsions, appearing as similar to an uncontrolled fit.
3) Coma.
4) Loss of reflexes
5) Loss of control over urination and excretion
If any of these symptoms are apparent. medical aid should be sought IMMEDIATELY.
DO NOT DOCTOR YOURSELF. IDENTIFY CHEMICAL CONTAMINATE, SO THE
PHYSICIAN CAN MAKE IMMEDIATE DIAGNOSIS AND PRESCRIBE PROPER TREATMENT.
3 When handling chemicals, always wear protective equipment: Rubber gloves, rubber boots, clean
cap. long-sleeved coveralls or jump suit. All these items should be changed daily. Do Not permit
contaminated clothing to be laundered by someone who is unaware of the hazard in handling, this
includes industrial laundry service. If handling material in an enclosed area, wear an approved
respirator or other breathing device.
4. After use aircraft should be washed down thoroughly, especially prior to maintenance. DO NOT
steam clean, as this tends to vaporize chemicals allowing easier and faster absorption. Drainage
from wash area, must be into an area where poisoning cannot occur. DO NOT allow aircraft to
be washed by untrained personnel

GROUND HANDLING, SERVICING, CLEANING, LUBRICATION AND INSPECTION
WARNING
When performing any inspection or mainte-
nance that requires turning on the master
switch, installing a battery, or pulling the
propeller through by hand, treat the propel-
ler 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 mal-
function, could cause the propeller to rotate.

Wing jacks must be of adequate strength, must be short enough to slide under front spar of wing,
and must extend far enough to raise wheels off ground.
Wing jack is inserted in tube welded to U-shaped adapter, which may be fabricated locally, or obtained
from the Cessna Supply Division. Adapter, which fits around wing-to-stub wing attachment at front spar,
must be strong enough to support aircraft.
Make sure tail stand is strong enough to support any weight placed on it. A telescoping, adjustable tail
stand is illustrated. However, any suitable tail stand may be used.
Jacking one wing is not recommended due to landing gear flexibility. However, if adequate precautions
against slipping are taken, it is permissible.
Operate jacks evenly until desired height is reached.
CAUTION
When using universal jack point (10004-98), flexibility of the gear strut will cause the
main wheels to slide inboard as the wheel is raised, tilting the jack. The jack must be
lowered for a second operation. Jacking both wheels simultaneously with universal
jack points is not recommended. Universal jack point may be used to raise only one
main wheel. DO NOT USE brake casting as a jack point.
Items (1). (4). (5) and (6) are available from the Cessna Supply Division.

I 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.
11 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.
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.
III 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 in-
spection 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.
2-20
2. IFTHE AIRPLANE IS FLOWN MORE THAN 200 HOURS ANNUALLY.
Whether flown for hire or not, it is recommended that airplanes operating in this category
be placed on the CESSNA PROGRESSIVE CARE PROGRAM However, if not placed on
Progressive Care, the inspection requirements for airplanes in the 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
ensures that the inspection intervals in the inspection charts are not exceeded.
Manuals and forms which are required for conducting Progressive Care in-
spections are available from the Cessna Service Parts Center.
