42 TAURUS ELECTRO www.pipistrel.si REV. 0 Normal procedures Parking Come to a complete standstill by engaging brakes. Set the system enable switch OFF, then master switch OFF. Unlock airbrakes (handle lifted slightly) and insert paracute rescue system handle’s safety pin. Open the cannopy, unfasten safety belts and exit the cockpit. Close and lock the cannopy after you have left the aircraft. When closing the canopy, make sure that the lock-handles are in OPEN position not to damage the locking pins. Also, block the wheels if parking on a slope. CAUTION! Whenever you leave the aircraft make sure the cannopy is closed and locked. Should you forget to do this the cannopy frame may not fit the fuselage frame any more when you return, since the stretch coefficient of fibre glass and plexi-glass are significantly different. Also, cover the cannopy with a fabric cover, to prevent the cabin from overheating (protectoin to instruments and systems). Retracting & Extending propulsion unit in flight This procedure applies only for retracting/extending the propulsion unit as an intentional event, be aware you may lose up to 100m (300ft) of altitude during this procedure. If under power, set rpm to minimum (rotate knob left) and select engine DOWN. Reduce speed to 80 km/h (43 kts) and set flaps to 1 st stage. Continue decellerating towards 70 km/h (40 kts). The system will complete the retraction/extension by itself. Once retracted (confirmed by green LED status light), select System enable OFF. For more details please consult the ESYS-MAN section in chapter Aircraft and Systems on board in this manual. To restart the motor in-flight follow the same procedure as for Motor startup (page 34) while maintaing level flight at 80 km/h (43 kts) with flaps in 1st stage. WARNING! always wait before the system confirmed in full extended or full retracted position before operating the master switch or THE SYSTEm ENABLE SWITCH! The propeller brake is electric and does not work without power - in flight and with the system in the middle of retraction, cutting the power will result in propeller damage! WARNING! Before you ENABLE THE MOTOR, make sure the propeller is in the fully extended and upright position (green light indication)! Should the batteries cool down during unpowered flight, use up to 1000 RPM until the battery temperature recovers to operating range. CAUTION! Do not add full power while the BATTERIES ARE still coLD. Keep flying at 80 km/h (43 kts) with flaps in L stage and not more than 1000 RPM to warm-up the BATTERIES first (if colder than 5°c). NOTE: It is not required to cool down the system before retraction.
