(3) 85% maximum Ground Operations.
9. CONDITION levers As required.
10. Red anticollision light Reset.
NOTE
To reset, turn off approximately 5 seconds,
then to the NIGHT (red) position. When
voltage drops below approximately 20
volts, the anticollision light may become
inoperative. Normally, NIGHT (red) strobe
is used for ground operations and DAY
(white) is used for flight operations.
8A-28. BEFORE TAXIING.
*
1. AC/DC power Check.
*
2. AVIONICS MASTER POWER ON.
*
3. EFIS POWER ON.
*
4. CABIN AIR/TEMP MODE and CABIN
AIR/TEMP switches Set as desired.
*
5. BLEED AIR VALVES As required.
CAUTION
Do not leave brake deice on longer than
required to check function of annunciators
when ambient temperatures are above
15 °C.
NOTE
Brake deice control valves may become
inoperative
if
valves
are
not
cycled
periodically. One cycle of the valves is
required daily, regardless of the weather
conditions.
*
6. BRAKE DEICE switch As required.
7. Avionics Check and set as required.

8. TCAS TEST and set.
9. FLAPS Check.
*
10. Altimeters Set and Check.

8A-29. TAXIING.
CAUTION
Never taxi with a flat tire or a flat shock
strut. During taxi operations, particular
attention should be given to propeller tip
clearance. Extreme caution is required
when operating on unimproved or irregular
surfaces or when high winds exist. If
operations produce a propeller RPM over
1600, retard propeller levers to the detent
to limit RPM to 1600 to help reduce the
possibility of ingestion of ground debris.
1. Brakes Check.
2. Flight instruments Check.
8A-30. ENGINE RUNUP.
1. Parking brake As required.
2. Propeller feathering Check.
H
3. AUTOFEATHER/AUTO IGN Check as
required.
a. AUTO IGN switches ARM. IGN ON
annunciators illuminated.
b. POWER levers 22% torque. IGN ON
annunciators extinguish.
c. AUTOFEATHER switch Hold to TEST.
Both
AUTOFEATHER
annunciators
illuminated.
d. POWER levers Retard individually.
(1) Approximately 16% 21% torque,
opposite
AUTOFEATHER
annunciator extinguishes, IGN ON
annunciator illuminated.
(2) Approximately 9% 14% torque,
both AUTOFEATHER annunciators
extinguished (prop begins to feather).
Both
IGN
ON
annunciators
illuminated.
NOTE
AUTOFEATHER
annunciators
will
illuminate
and
extinguish
with
each
fluctuation of torque as the propeller
attempts to feather.
(3) Return POWER lever to 22% torque.
e. Repeat procedure with other engine.
f. POWER
