EGT limits, whichever occurs first. Stabilize power setting.
Once power is stabilized, check engine instruments normal
and beta lights extinguished.
Release the brakes, accelerate to VR and rotate to a 5-15
normal takeoff pitch attitude, not to exceed 13 degrees
pitch.
As the aircraft accelerates, power will normally increase
about 10%. Power lever position must normally be adjusted
to prevent exceeding engine limits.

Recommended landing flap setting is flap 20° although flap

the performance section of the AFM. For landing with a
crosswind, adjust VREF by one half the steady state wind
plus all of the gusts, not to exceed VREF plus 10 knots.
When landing with any ice accumulation on the wing,
increase the computed VREF by 15 knots. When landing
with an asymmetric fuel condition, increase computed VREF
by 10 knots. Approach speeds should not be below VREF

AIRCRAFT MAY RESULT IN A REDUCED DOWN FORCE

DOWN FORCE MAY RESULT IN THE AIRCRAFT
PITCHING NOSE DOWN.
It is strongly recommended that the airplane be established
on a stable approach for the last 1000 feet of descent in
IMC conditions (or for the complete final approach segment
of a non precision approach if that segment is less than
1000 feet above the field) or the last 500 feet of descent in
VMC conditions. A stable approach means that the airplane
is configured for landing, all checklists have been
completed, power is established at a setting to maintain an
airspeed of VREF to VREF plus 20 knots, the airspeed is
steady at VREF to VREF plus 20 knots, the proper glide path
is being maintained, the airplane is trimmed, and no
unusual maneuvering is required to accomplish the landing.
A missed approach is recommended if deviation from any
of these parameters occurs.

If a prolonged shutdown is anticipated, some propeller 5-30 / 5-31
windmilling (below 5% RPM) is desirable to equalize
cooling if EGT is above 200 degrees C. The following is
permissible if propeller is not rotating:1) Place condition
lever to the TAXI & CRUISE, and 2) press the unfeather
switch as required to achieve minimum windmill (maximum
5% until EGT is below 200 degrees C.) Once the EGT is

(2) AUTO-IGNITION SYSTEM (if auto-ignition system is 5-33
installed)
1. The Ignition System is activated by a torque pressure 5-33
switch sensing the high pressure output of the hydraulic
torque sensor. If the engine flames out, the torque pressure
drops rapidly below the torque switch set point, thus turning
on the ignition. Following relight, the ignition is deactivated
as the torque pressure goes above the switch set point
pressure. The system is deactivated unless the RUN-
CRANK-STOP switch is in the "RUN" position.
2. During ignition operation, the amber LH IGNITION or RH 5-33
IGNITION annunciator is illuminated.
3. The Auto-Ignition System shall be placed in AUTO for all 5-33
normal flight conditions.
4. The auto-ignition system shall be placed in CONT (within 5-33
duty cycle limitations) for all flight in icing conditions. This
operation shall be conducted prior to turning on the engine
intake anti-ice switch especially if inadvertent icing is
encountered.

BLENDING ANTI-ICE ADDITIVE TO FUEL 5-41
Approved fuel system icing inhibitor conforming to MIL-I- 5-41
27686 must be added to the fuel in all tanks, unless fuel is
premixed. The icing inhibitor must be added during
refueling to be soluble in the fuel, but not in excess of
0.15% maximum by volume.
Premixed fuel containing icing inhibitor is available and 5-41
caution must be exercised so that additional icing inhibitor
is not added. When using premixed fuel, disregard the
following procedures.
BLENDING PROCEDURES: 5-41
JP-4 FUEL PER MIL-T-5624 HAS ANTI-ICING ADDITIVE 5-41
PER MIL-I-27686 BLENDED IN THE FUEL AT THE
REFINERY AND NO FURTHER TREATMENT IS
NECESSARY. SOME FUEL SUPPLIERS BLEND ANTI-
ICING ADDITIVE IN THEIR STORAGE TANKS. PRIOR TO
REFUELING, CHECK WITH THE FUEL SUPPLIER TO
DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE FUEL HAS BEEN
BLENDED. TO ASSURE PROPER CONCENTRATION BY
VOLUME OF FUEL ON BOARD, BLEND ONLY ENOUGH
ADDITIVE FOR THE UNBLENDED FUEL.
HI-FLO PRIST MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED OR 5-41
SWALLOWED. USE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. AVOID
CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES.
1 Using HI-FLO PRIST blender manufactured by PPG 5-41
INDUSTRIES, INC., remove actuator cap.
2 Press valve button (attached to tube and clip assembly) 5-41
into valve on top of can.
3 Reattach actuator cap by positioning onto can. 5-41
4 Place clip with tubing onto fuel nozzle. 5-41
5 To start flow, press actuator down fully. To stop flow, press, 5-41
tilt to side and return to normal position.
6 Use can upright and start flow of PRIST after refueling 5-41
begins (refueling should be at a minimum rate of 30
gal/min. to a maximum of 60 gal/min.). A rate of less than
30 gal/min. may be used when topping of tanks.

7 Stop flow of PRIST a moment before refueling stops. 5-41
ASSURE THAT THE ADDITIVE IS DIRECTED INTO AND 5-42
BLENDS WITH FLOWING FUEL FROM FUELING
NOZZLE. DO NOT ALLOW CONCENTRATED ADDITIVE
TO CONTACT INTERIOR OF FUEL TANKS OR
AIRCRAFT PAINTED SURFACES. USE NOT LESS THAN
20 FL. OZ. OF ADDITIVE PER 260 GALLONS OF FUEL
OR MORE THAN 20 FL. OZ. OF ADDITIVE PER 104
GALLONS OF FUEL.
ALTERNATE BLENDERS: 5-42
If alternate blenders must be used such as PRIST 5-42
proportioner Model PRB-101 or AP-2, use instructions
furnished with blender.
