HANDLING AND GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
In some rare cases it may be necessary to wrap the harness around the stick below the electric conduit plug on the control stick to gain enough slack to engage all the hooks. If the parking harness is equipped with turnbuckles, they should be attached to the seatp and any slack taken up at the turnbuckles.

   (3) Sand Plugs: Plugs for sealing the vent lines, cooling air intake scoop, and exhaust stacks are all tied together on a long rope to prevent loss and to be sure all are removed from the airplane when preparing the airplane for flight. These plugs must be installed when the airplane is to be left in the open. It is also necessary to place the carburetor air filter control in the "FILTERED" position and the cowl flaps in the "CLOSED" position. This will close the carburetor air intake and exit air duct.
