TM 1-1510-225-10 8A-13 CAUTION If ignition does not occur within 10 seconds after moving condition lever to low idle, initiate Engine Clearing procedure,   Paragraph   8A-25.      If   for   any reason  a  starting  attempt  is  discontinued, the    entire    starting    sequence    must    be repeated after allowing the engine to come to a complete stop (1-minute minimum). b.  CONDITION lever (after N₁ RPM stabilizes at  or  above  12%  for  5  seconds)  –  LOW IDLE. CAUTION Monitor ITT to avoid a hot start.  If there is a rapid rise in ITT, be prepared to abort the start  before  limits  are  exceeded.    During engine start, the maximum allowable ITT is 1000  °C  for  5  seconds.    If  this  limit  is exceeded,    use    Abort    Start    procedure, Paragraph   8A-24,   and   discontinue   start. Record the peak temperature and duration on DA Form 2408-13-1. c.   ITT   and   N₁   –   Monitor.      ITT   1000   °C maximum.  N₁ minimum 58%. d.  Oil pressure – Check (60 psi minimum). e.  IGNITION  AND  ENGINE  START  switch  – OFF after 50% N₁. 3.  Engine and systems instruments – Check. 4.  Right PROP lever – FEATHER. 5.  GPU – Disconnect. 6.  Right PROP lever – HIGH RPM. 7.  INVERTER  switch  –  ON,  check  INVERTER light OFF. a.  Check  the  operation  of  the  INVERTER  to be  used  as  the  standby  INVERTER,  then OFF;  turn  ON  the  INVERTER  to  be  used for the flight. 8.  GEN switches – RESET, then ON. a.  AC/DC  power  –  Check  frequencies,  volts and loads. b.  Frequency and volts: (1)  AC frequency 390 Hz to 410 Hz. (2)  AC voltage – 110 Vac to 120 Vac. (3)  DC voltage – 27.5 Vdc to 29.0 Vdc. c.   DC loads: Parallel within 10%. (1)  75% maximum – LOW IDLE. (2)  85% maximum – HIGH IDLE. (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. O  * 3.  EFIS POWER switches – ON. * 4.  CABIN TEMP MODE and temperature switch – 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 – AS required. * 7.  Avionics – Check and set as required. O  * 8.  TCAS – TEST and set. 9.  FLAPS – Check. * 10.  Altimeters – Set and check.
