CROSS REFERENCE LISTING OF POPULAR NAME VS. MODEL NUMBERS AND SERIALS All aircraft, regardless of manufacturer, are certificated under model number designations. However, popular names are often used for marketing purposes. To provide a consistent method of referring to the various aircraft, model numbers will be used in this publication unless names are required to differentiate between versions of the same basic model. The following table provides a cross reference listing of popular name vs. model numbers.

FOREWORD This manual contains factory recommended procedures and in- structions for ground handling, servicing and maintaining Cessna 100-Series aircraft. These include the Models 150, 172, Pl72, 180, 182, 185, and A185. The Model F172, which is manufactured by Reims Aviation S. A., Reims (Marne) France, is identical to the 172 except that it is powered by an 0-300-D engine, manufactured under license by Rolls Royce, Crewe, England. All 172 information in this manual pertains to the F172 as well. Likewise, the Model FPl72 is identical to the P172 except that it is powered by a GO-300-E Rolls Royce engine, and the Model F150 is identical to the 150 except that it is powered by an 0-200-A Rolls Royce engine. The Model A182, which is manufactured by Directorate National of Fabrication and Investigation Aeronautical, Cordoba, Argentina, is identical to the Model 182. All 182 information in this manual pertains to the A182 as well. Besides serving as a reference for the experienced mechanic, this book also covers step-by-step procedures for the less experienced man. This manual should be kept in a handy place for ready reference. If properly used, it will better enable the mechanic to maintain Cessna 100-Series aircraft and thereby establish a repu- tation for reliable service. The information in this book is based on data available at the time of publication, and is supplemented and kept current by service letters and service news letters published by Cessna Aircraft Com- pany. These are sent to all Cessna Dealers so that they have the latest authoritative recommendations for servicing Cessna airplanes. Therefore, it is recommended that Cessna owners utilize the know- ledge and experience of the factory-trained Dealer Service Organi- zation. In addition to the information in this Service Manual, a group of vendor publications are available from the Cessna Service Parts Center which describe complete disassembly, overhaul, and parts breakdown of some of the various vendor equipment items. A listing of the available publications is issued periodically in service letters. iii
