The service procedures recommended hy Aveo Lycoming are effective methods for performing service opera- tions, Some of these service operations require the use of tools specially designed for the task. ‘These special tools must be used when and as recommended. It is important to note that most Aveo Lycoming publications contain various Warnings and Cautions which must be carefully read in order to minimize the risk of personal injury or the use of improper service methods that may damage the engine or render il unsafe. It is also important to understand that these Warnings and Cautions are not all inclusive, Aveo Lycoming could not possibly know, evaluate or aclvise the service Lrade of all conceivable ways in which service might he done or of the possible hazardous consequences that. may be involved, Accordingly, anyone who uses a service procedure must first satisfy themselves thoroughly that neither their safety nor aircraft safety will be jeopardized by the service procedure they select. iA <#evCOQ LYCOMING OPERATOR'S MANUAL * TABLE OF CONTENTS @ Page SECTION 1 DESCRIPTION 11 SECTION 2 SPECIFICATIONS 21 SECTION 3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 31 SECTION 4 PERIODIC INSPECTIONS 4-1 SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES a1 SECTION 6 TROUBLE-SHOOTING 6-1 SECTION 7 INSTALLATION AND STORAGE TA ® SECTION 8 TABLES &1 —teveo LYCOMING OPERATOR’S MANUAL 3/4 Right Rear View - Typical 10-540-C vi 060 LYCOMING OPERATOR'S MANUAL WARNING These engines are equipped with a dynamic counterweight system and must he operated accordingly, avoid bigh engine speed, low manifold pressure operation, Use a smooth, steady movement of the thrattle (avoid vapid opening and closing). If this warning is not heeded, there could be severe damage to the counterweights, roller and bushings. vii - Figure 3-1.

LEANING WITH MANUAL MIXTURE CONTROL (Without fowmetet or EGT gage), a. Carbureted Engines. {1) Slowly move mixture control from “Full Rich” position toward lean position. (2) Continue leaning wntil engine roughness is noted, (3) Enrich until engine runs smoothly and power is tegained. & USE OF CARBURETOR HEAT CONTROL + Under certain moist atmospheric conditions at temperature of 20° to 90° is possible for ice to form in the induction system, even in summer weather, ‘This is due to the high air velocity through the carburetor venturi and the absorption of heat from this air by vaporization of the fuel, The temperature in the mixture chamber may drop as much as 70°F. below the temperature of the incoming air, If this air contains a large amount of moisture, the cooling process can cause precipitation in the form of ice, lee formation generally begins in the vicinity of the butterfly and may build up to sueh an extent that a drop in power output could result, A lass of power is reflected by a drop in manifold pressure in installations equipped wilh constant speed propellers and a drop in manifold pressure and RPM in installations equipped with fixed piteh propellers, If not corrected, this condition may cause complete engine stoppage, ‘fo avoid this condition, all installations are equipped with a system for preheating the incoming ait supply Lo the carburetor. In this way, sufficient heat is added Lo replace the heat loss due to vaporization of fuel; and the mixing chamber’s temperature cannot drop to the freezing point of water, ‘This air preheater is essentially a tube or jacket through which the exhaust pipe from one of more evlinders is passed, and the ait Mowing over these surfaces is raised to the required temperature before entering the carburetor, Consistently high temperatures are to be avoided because of a loss in power and a decided variation of the mixture, High charge temperatures also faver detonation and preignition, both of which are to be avoided if normal service life is to be expected from the engine, The following outline is the proper method of utilizing the carburetor heat control, 3-8 _ ny) aTeUTIOpag apNy[Y Pur pas] wos “pe andy 3-17 <0#MCOQ LYCOMING OPERATOR'S MANUAL SECTION 3 0-540, 10-540 & HIO-540 SERIES CURVE NO. 0822-8 nee int Figure 3-3, Part Throttle Fuel Consumption Curve - 0-540-B 0AVCOQ LYCOMING OPERATOR'S MANUAL 0-540, 10-540 & HIO-540 SERIES SECTION 3 ievcao LYCOMING OPERATOR’S MANUAL 0-540, 10-540 & HIO-540 SERIES SECTION 3 T L0FS0 - AOUBUOJIag BPNY!I[Y PUE [aaa] bag “y-¢ aINATy 3-20 <0BMCG_ LYCOMING OPERATOR’S MANUAL 0-540, 10-540 & HIO-540 SERIES SECTION 3 USING CURVE TO FIND ACTUAL HORSEPOWER - The following is an example of haw to use the Sea Level and Altitude Perfarmanee curves for normally aspirated engines, printed on these pages, to determine actual horsepower being delivered by the engine for given altitude, RPM. manifold pressure and oil inlet temperature. This example (figure 3-8) is for illustration purposes only. 1, Determine equivalent full throttle horsepower on altitude performance curve fer observed manifold pressure and RPM, Example: At 2100 RPM and 23.2 inches manifold pressure, locate Point A". 2. Repeat above procedure on sea level performance curve. Example: Point “B™, 3, Transfer value obtained in step 2 to altitude performance curve, Example: Point “0”, 4, Connect point “A” and point “C” with a straight line. 5. Read horsepower on line “CA” for given altitude (Example; At 1500 feet with a power setting of 2100 RPM and 23.2 in. Hg., horsepower is 157. Point “D".) G. Catrect power approximately 1% for each 10° variation in intake air temperatures from the standard altitude temperature shown below, Add correction for temperatures below standard, subtract correction for temperatures above standard. (Example: With an air inlet temperature of 14°F, at an allitude of 1500 feet, 54°F, - 14°F, - 40° variation. 1% for each 10° variation is 4%, 4% of 157 horsepower is approximately 6 horsepawer, Since temperature is below standard, add correction: 157 + 6 = 163 horsepower - Point “E"’,) STANDARD ALTITUDE TEMPERATURES IN DEGREES F.
