Pitot Heat Switch - - OFF NOTE Perform a sideslip to keep the flames away from the fuel tank and cabin. Land as soon as possible using flaps only as required for final approach and touchdown. ICING INADVERTENT ICING ENCOUNTER 1. Turn pitot heat switch ON. 2. Turn back or change altitude to obtain an outside air temperature that is less conducive to icing. 3. Pull cabin heat control full out and open defroster outlets to obtain maximum windshield defroster airflow. Adjust cabin air control to get maximum defroster heat and airflow. 4. Open the throttle to increase engine speed and minimize ice buildup on the propeller blades. 5. Watch for signs of induction icing and apply alternate air as required. An unexplained loss in engine speed could be caused by induction system ice or air intake filter ice. Lean the mixture for maximum RPM if alternate air is used continuously. 6. Plan a landing at the nearest airport. With an extremely rapid ice build up select a suitable off airport landing site. 7. With an ice accumulation of 1/4 inch or more on the wing leading edges, be prepared for significantly higher stall speed. 8. Leave wing flaps retracted. With a severe ice build up on the horizontal tail, the change in wing wake airflow direction caused by wing flap extension could result in a loss of elevator effectiveness. 9. Open left window and, if practical, scrape ice from a portion of the windshield for visibility in the landing approach. 10. Perform a landing approach using a forward slip, if necessary, for improved visibility. 11. Approach at 65 to 75 KIAS depending upon the amount of accumulation. 12. Perform a landing in level attitude.

Suction Gage - - CHECK to ensure vacuum within normal operating limits. AMPLIFIED EMERGENCY PROCEDURES ROUGH ENGINE OPERATION OR LOSS OF POWER Induction System Icing A gradual loss of RPM and eventual engine roughness may result from the formation of ice at the inlet to the fuel injector or on the air filter. To clear the ice, apply full throttle and pull the alternate air control knob (heated air) full out until the engine runs smoothly; then return the alternate air control to the full in position and readjust the throttle. If conditions require the continued use of alternate air in cruise flight, use the full amount of alternate air to prevent ice from forming and lean the mixture for the smoothest engine operation.

Air Induction System The engine air induction system receives ram air through an intake on the lower front portion of the engine cowling. The intake is covered by an air filter which removes dust and other foreign matter from the induction air. Airflow passing through the air filter enters an air box. After passing through the air box, induction air enters a fuel/air control unit which is under the engine, and then is ducted to the engine cylinders through intake manifold tubes. In the event induction ice is encountered, or the intake air filter becomes blocked, alternate heated air can be obtained from a shroud around an exhaust riser through a duct to a valve, in the air box, operated by the alternate air control located on the instrument panel. Unfiltered heated air is drawn from the lower cowl area around an exhaust riser through the shroud into a duct on the air box. Use of full alternate air will result in a loss of approximately 75 to 150 RPM. Propeller The air plane is equipped with a two-bladed, fixed pitch, one piece forged aluminum alloy propeller which is anodized to retard corrosion. The propeller is 76 inches in diameter.
