Wear protective goggles when using the cleaning solvent. Avoid contact with the eyes. If contact

Preservation.
(1)
All critical unpainted metal surfaces must be protected during shipment. Oil or grease covered in the
lubrication section may be used for this purpose but it is effective for only a few days. Equipment
protected in this manner must be watched for signs of corrosion. Preservatives selection will be such
that their application, use or removal will not damage the surface to which they are applied.
(2)
Coat lower landing leg, chassis, frame, exterior hardware and suspension system with corrosion
preventive compound.
(3) Spray data plates with a thin coating of ignition insulation compound. Control overspray to avoid coating
adjacent surfaces.
