EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURES.
2.11.1
Emeregncy Stop.
The EMERGENCY
STOP button on the control panel provides a quick and positive method for stopping the engine in an
emergency. When the button is depressed, it latches in position and removes electrical power from the system. Except for
ease of operation, the EMERGENCY
STOP button acts exactly the same as operating the ENGINE START/RUN/STOP
switch.
2.11.2
Emergency Operation.
There are no provisions for "Battle Short" operation of the AAFARS. Emergency operation consists of continuing operation
in spite of conditions such as noisy or erratic engine operation, indications of imminent fuel hose failure, illumination of
FAULTS indicators on control panel, or other conditions which would normally require immediate shut down. Emergency
operation only applies in a wartime situation where continued aircraft refueling is of paramount importance.
The consequences of ignoring FAULTS indicators are:
a.
ENGINE HOT indicator - loss of power followed by engine seizure.
b.
LOW OIL PRESSURE indicator - loss of power followed by engine seizure. ENGINE HOT indicator may
illuminate.
c.
ALTNTR
- system will continue to operate until battery is depleted. If battery is not connected, engine will stop.
d.
PUMPAGE HOT - engine will stop and may not be restarted until pumpage has cooled to 125*F (52*C).
2.12
