1. Keep the carburetor control in full COLD position at all times. 2. Open the coolant shutters before starting and on the peel-off before landing. This procedure cools the engine so you can taxi longer after you land. 3. Don't start the engine until you are ready to taxi. 4. If the engine overheats, pull off to the side of the taxi strip (at least 200 feet-from the runway in use), point the nose of your airplane into the wind and shut off the engine until it cools. It takes about 15 minutes to cool an overheated engine.

1. Before starting the engine, make sure the propeller has been pulled through at least three times. 2. When starting in cold weather, dilute the oil before you stop the engine. Run the engine at about 1000 rpm and hold the oil dilution switch on for about 4 minutes-until your oil pressure drops to about 15 psi. 3. When icing conditions exit on the ground, place the carburetor heat control in the full HOT position for about 10 seconds After you check your magneto. Return it to the full COLD position before the takeoff.
