Safety notes

  • SL525-28-06: if the fuel low level float switch mounting nut is not torqued properly, fuel may leak into the main landing gear wheel well. The fix torques it to 145 to 150 inch pounds.
  • SL525-28-06 is only RECOMMENDED. Do it at a scheduled inspection. It takes 2.0 labor hours and the owner advisory expired September 25, 2021.
  • Brokers state they make no representation of airworthiness. Arrange your own independent pre-purchase inspection.
