AA-5 SERIES MAINTENANCE MANUAL INTRODUCTION GENERAL The function of this Maintenance Manual Is to acquaint maintenance personnel with the systems andtheir components of the AA-5, AA-5A and AA-5B aircraft and to direct them in the proper procedures for maintaining the aircraft In an airworthy condition. This manual contains Information on installations made in the aircraft during manufacture and optional equipment only. However, informationderived from applicable Single EngineAircraft Service Kits, Service Bulletins, and Service Letters will be included in the manual as soon as possible after the issuance of these documents. Changes or installations made by the operator are not Included In this manual. The ability of maintenance personnel is recognized, andthose procedures which are considered common to all aircraft have been either briefly referenced or omitted. FORMAT The chapter identification in this manual has been prepared In accordance withAir Transport Associa tion (ATA) Specification No. 100. A functional breakdown is employed whereby all data pertaining to a given system, or component of a system, may be found In one chapter with a minimum of cross-refer encing to other chapters. The Electrical Power Chapter in this manual covers only the power sources anddistributionequipment - for the electrical system. There is not a chapter in this manual specifically designated for instruments. Details of individual branch electrical or instrument systems will be found in the applicable chapter. IDENTIFICATION OF SUBJECT MATTER A three-dash number system is employed to Identify subject matter. The first dash number Identifies the chapter, the second dash number the section, and the third dash number the component or sub section of the section. The following example illustrates how the numbering system is used in the NAVIGATION Chapter. 34 - l — i •Identifies NAVIGATION Chapter. • Identifies that section (group of related subjects) which provides coverage for the Flight Environment Data portion of the NAVIGATION Chapter. •Identifies a specific subject (component) of the Flight Environment Data. In this manual It is assigned to the Pitot and Static Pressure Systems. The dash 0 (-0) is provided as a means for covering a complete system or sub-system. The chapter number followed by a zero (34-0) will segregate that material covering the complete system; the chapter section numbers followed by a zero (34-1-0) is used for further details covering the sub-system or com ponent. PAGE NUMBER IDENTIFICATION Page number blocks are used to separate the subject matter into the following categories: General Coverage and Unit Description Pages 1 through 1Q0 Troubleshooting Pages 101 through 200 Maintenance Practices (See Below) Introduction Pagel Nov 15/76

AA-5 SERIES MAINTENANCE MANUAL Maintenance Practices include as applicable the following sub-topics: Servicing, Removal/Installation. Adjustment/Test, Inspection/Check, Cleaning/Painting, and Approved Repairs. If all sub-topics, under Maintenance Practices are brief, they are combined into one topic. All such com bined topics are numbered withinpage number block 201-300. Whenever individualsub-topics are so lengthy thata combination requires several pages, each sub-topic is treated as an individual topic. Page number blocks for this sub-topic arrangement are as follows: Servicing 301 - 400 Removal/Installation 401 - 500 Adjustment/Test 501 - 600 Inspection/Check 601 - 700 Cleaning/Painting 701 - 800 Approved Repairs 801 - 900 Each new subjectstarts with page 1, 101, 201, etc., and continues through the page block assignment to the extent necessary. The first page of each block is placed on a right-hand page. I -FIGURE IDENTIFICATION Figures (illustrations) are numbered consecutively within each topic (subject) as follows: Figures in Description - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. Figures in Troubleshooting - 101, 102, 103, etc. Figures in Maintenance Practices - When not sub-divided - 201, 202, 203, etc. When sub-divided - Servicing- 301, 302, 303, etc. Removal/Installation - 401, 402, 403, etc. Adjustment/Test - 501, 502, 503, etc. Cleaning/Painting- 701, 702, 703, etc. Approved Reoairs - 801, 802, 803, etc. INDEXING Each chapter is prefaced with a table of contents identifying the subject matter within the chapter in the order of presentation.

• /S0&\ AA-5 SERIES MAINTENANCE MANUAL TIME LIMITS - DESCRIPTION/OPERATION 1. General The service guide (Figure 1) contains the manufacturers' recommendedtime limits for inspection, main tenance and overhaul of the airplane, its systems and units. 2. Service Life Limited Components Recent changes in the Federal Aviation Regulations require that all new aircraft nowbeing certified, for which application for a type certificate,was made after September 14, 1969, have the critical wing struc ture components fatigue strength Investigated and that, where applicable, these components be service life limited. Since the AA-5, AA-5A and AA-5B fall into this category, the following service life infor mation is provided. The Model AA-5, AA-5A and AA-5B wing and associated structure have been shown capable of withstanding the repeated loads of variable magnitude expected in service. This was accom plished through a fatigue strength investigation, and as a result of this Investigation, discrete service lives have been established for several wing structure components. Those components and their corre sponding service lives are listed in Figure 2. Service life limited parts must be retired from service in accordance with the specified service life hours listed in Figure 2. All wing and fuselage structural components shall be subject to normal inspection, maintenance, repair and replacement procedures. In addition, to ensure maximum limited life, If corrosion is detected on wing or inboard spars, remove it as quickly as possible and protect the surface from further corrosion in accordance with AC43.13-1A,"Acceptable Methods, Techniques and Practices - Aircraft Inspection and Repair". 5-1-1 Pagel Dec 15/77
