Subject: Re: 1800 amphib spray rails
gearHow can I tell which side of the selector switch for the 1800 floats is
"up"up or down? Does It makes a difference on how I mount it. I want the knob
Can't remember exactly, as it was a couple of years ago now forfor gear up and "down" for gear down.
Bruce
me, but do believe it matters. Aren't the ports labelled at the
back? Worst case, you'll have to do some trial and error.
Walter
Ports are labeled pressure and exh (exhaust?) I think. I can't test anything
until the switch and pressure gage are mounted. Then it would be to late to
rotate it very easily.
Bruce
Don't know Bruce, but if you don't get a good answer by tomorrow,
I can go out to my hangar and have a look. Just tell me exactly
what you want me to check. Not sure if I can get a digital pic
from behind the panel, but will try if you want. I also just had
a look at the manual, and figure 16.3.2 seemed to show how each
port was to be used. I think that's what I followed, and it
worked out OK.
Walter
Bruce, "pressure" must remain the input from the pump and "ex" is drain to
the tank, so only leaves two options for lines A or B. The handle can be
moved in 90* increments if I remember right. Blow through the valve (or use
your blow off gun on your compressor) in through the pressure port and see
which a or b it comes out. Verify handle position and pick the port that is
an "output" when the handle is up and connect this to the line going to your
forward (rod end) of your cylinders. The down handle "output" port will be
plumbed to the rear (piston end) of all your cylinders.
Cheers,
Wayne
Walter,
If you get to your plane this weekend look at the position of the switch
with
the gear down and tell me, if you can, what port the knob/lever is pointed
toward. Thanks.
Bruce
Thanks Wayne and Walter,
Between what you said and looking at the manual again I have it figured out.
Bruce
Walter, you don't have to check your switch now but thanks for the offer.
Bruce
