Additions, or revisions to text in an existing section will be identified by a revision bar on the page adjacent to the change. 2. When technical changes cause unchanged text to appear on a different page/pages, a revision bar will be placed in the margin opposite the page number of all affected pages providing no other revision bar appears on the page. 3. When extensive technical changes are made to text in an existing section that requires a complete retype of copy, revision bars will appear the full length of the page. 4. When art in an existing illustration is revised, a pointing hand will appear in the illustration and will point to the area of the art revision. 5. New art added to an existing section will be identified by a single pointing hand adjacent to the figure title and figure number. 6. Revision bars are not shown for: a. Introductory material, indexes and tabular data. b. Blank spaces which are the result of text, illustration or table deletion. c. Correction of minor inaccuracies, such as punctuation, etc., unless such a correction changes the meaning of instructive information and procedures. CUSTOMER CARE SUPPLIES AND PUBLICATIONS CATALOG A Customer Care Supplies and Publications Catalog is available from your Cessna Service Station or directly from the Cessna Propeller Aircraft Product Support, P.O.

Lower the aircraft tail so that wing jack and stands can be placed at wing jack points. 2. Raise aircraft tail and attach tail stand to tail tie-down ring. BE SURE the tail stand weighs enough to keep the tail down under all conditions and that it is strong enough to support any weight that may be placed upon it. 3. Raise jacks evenly until desired height is reached. When jacking the aircraft, the main landing gear wheels must be a minimum of 16" above shop floor for landing gear retraction. 4. The jack point on the bottom of the step may be used to raise only one main wheel. Do not use brake casting as a jack point. 5. The nose may be raised by weighting down the tail. Place weight on each side of stabilizer, next to fuselage. 6. Whenever the landing gear is to be operated in the shop, use the wing jack and tail jack points to raise the aircraft. 7. The aircraft may be hoisted as outlined in paragraph 2-3. REMOVING AIRCRAFT FROM JACKS. 1. Place landing gear control handle in gear down position. 2. Operate ground hydraulic power source or aircraft emergency hydraulic hand pump until landing gear is down and locked, and the green (DOWN) light is illuminated. 3. Disconnect ground hydraulic power source and/or stow emergency hydraulic hand pump handle. 4. Ascertain that green (DOWN) light is illuminated; then place master switch in OFF position. 5. Lower jacks evenly until aircraft rests on the landing gear and remove wing jacks and tail stand. 6. Compress nose landing gear shock strut to static position. SHOP NOTES: Figure 2-2.

Lubrication (Sheet 4 of 4) 2-19 MODEL P210 SERIES SERVICE MANUAL 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. II 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.
