Inspection, maintenance and parts requirements for' STC installations are not included in this manual. When an STC installation is incorporated on the airplane, those portions of the airplane affected by the installation must be inspected in accordance with the inspection program published by the owner of the STC. Since STC installations may change systems interface, operating characteristics and component loads or stresses on adjacent structures, Cessna provided inspection criteria may not be valid for airplanes with STC installations. This illustrated parts catalog has been prepared to aid you in easily and quickly identifying parts of the models covered herein. The information in this catalog is based on data available at the time of publication. This catalog features an index system consisting of: 1. An alphabetical index located in the front of the catalog. 2. A numerical index located in the back of the catalog, which lists all parts and figures in which they appear. AEROFICHE .... This catalog has been designed for Aerofiche presentation. To facilitate the use of the catalog for Aerofiche, fiche and frame numbers have been added to the alphabetical and numerical indexes. Frame numbers appear at the bottom center of each page. Refer to the header of the applicable fiche for location of various indexing information. STANDARD PARTS. Many parts having standard usage have been incorporated into the Cessna Standard System. Parts in this group are designated with the part number preflX "S". For standard hardware items such as Tinnerman nuts, clamps, etc. "AN" and "NAS" numbers have been used. USABLE ON CODES. . . . Serial listings in this catalog are noted ,by a letter code located in the usable on code column which is the extreme right hand column ofthe'\parts list page. Usable on codes are applicable 'only to the figure on which they appear. The code letters and the serials to which they apply are listed at the end of the figure . . ., . If no usable on code appears opposite a first column listing of the figure, the usage is applicable to all models and serials covered by this catalog. If no usable on code appears opposite any indented listing, the usage is applicable to all models and serials covered by the figure on which it appears. i •. ,1
172 Parts Catalog Bold face type serials appearing on certain figures are for quick reference to large blocks of airplanes. Reims Avaiation serial usage is listed together with the Cessna Aircraft Company serial usage immediately following the parts listing on each individual figure where applicable. NON-INTERCHANGEABLE PARTS .... When parts are not interchangeable with earlier models, all parts applicable to the particular usage is listed in the usable on column opposite each part. Care should be exercised in determining proper serial when ordering to insure receipt of correct part. INTERCHANGEABLE PARTS .... When a later design part is completely interchangeable with the part it replaces, both parts will be serialized and the notation "when exhausted use_", or the abbreviation, "WEU _" will be entered following the listing of the earlier design part. This means that the earlier design part should be used on airplanes to which they apply until the supply of these parts is exhausted--- after which time the later design part must be used. This is done to simplify stocking of parts by our distributors and service stations. The earlier part is as good physically and functionally, as the later design part--- the difference being the later design part can be used on more than one block of airplane serials. SYMBOLS & PART NUMBER TERMS. NP - The symbol "NP" appearing in the units per assembly column denotes that the item it appears opposite is not procurable. AR - The symbol "AR" appearing in the units per assembly column denotes "As Required" and is used to indicate bulk quantity where an indefinite amount is used. The following is a list of abbreviations that may appear in the description nomenclature: ALT Alternate Part LH Left Hand ASSY Assembly MIG Main Gear BHD Bulkhead N/G Nose Gear BKI Bulk item PNL Panel COMP Components PRESS Pressure FSO For spares order RH Right Hand FWD Forward SECT Section IND Indicator UPR Upper INSTL Installation WEU When Exhausted Use ii Other key letter symbols spaced apart from and following the part nomenclature are for cataloging and manufacturing purposes only and are not to be considered by the customer. A blank entry in the part number column appears before an unprocurable part or installation which is also denoted in the "Units Per Assembly" column by the use of the symbol "NP". GROUP ASSEMBLY PARTS LIST ARRANGEMENT. This section lists all replaceable items in the airplane and these items are detailed on illustrations throughout the section. The index numbers on the illustration are keyed to each accompanying parts list. The purpose of the index numbers is to provide complete and positive identification of the article, but should not be used for procurement purposes. a. The figure and index number column of the parts list shows the figure number once at the beginning of the list. The figure number is followed by a dash and the indexed number. The remaining index numbers are preceded by dash only. b. The part number column identifies the item by part number. c. In the description column, relationship of items covered is shown by the degree of indention of each item, for example: The wing assembly (Figure 3) is listed in column (1) of the description column. The wing structure, is the next lower assembly and is therefore listed in column (2). d. If two or more assemblies contain a majority of identical parts or the assemblies are left or right hand, the assemblies are listed together and the next lower assemblies or detail parts are .1 listed as common for both assemblies,· with the differing parts coded for usage on the correct major assembly. '; e. Attaching parts are listed immediately beneath the item to be attached and preceding any detail parts of the item. They are listed in the same column as the item they attach and are preceded by the caption "Attaching Parts". The end of the attaching parts listing is followed by a separating symbol ---*--. f i.,',.- , '.f··· :~q ·h
172 Parts Catalog f. The quantity listed in the "Units Per Assembly" column for attaching parts denotes the quantity necessary to attach only one part. Total quantity necessary to attach more than one part is obtained by multiplying the attaching parts quantity by the number of parts attached. g. Component parts ofthe complete airplane which are not included in any assembly, but which are used in conjunction with, or attach to certain assemblies, are listed wither preceding the fIrst detail or following the last detail of the assembly or installation, and in the same column as the major assembly or installation. h. The quantities listed in the "Units Per Assembly" column are the quantity used per fIgure. ACCESSORY KITS. For accessory kit listings, refer to separate Accessory Kit and Service Kit Index. BULK ITEMS. Certain items such as flexible air hose, rubber moldings and channels, windshield sealing strips etc., are noted in the catalog listings as bulk items. These listings also note the cut length of these materials for one installation. When an items is listed as bulk item, it will be supplied to the service stations in the most convenient bulk length or quantity. Reference to the cut length or quantity per installation provides for the most satisfactory disbursement to the customer. HOW TO ORDER. USE YOUR CATALOG TO ORDER PARTS. Use Parts and Accessories Order Form, which will be supplied by Cessna on request. Give complete information on addresses and make sure the part number and part name are as shown in the catalog. Be sure to specify quantities. Specify how the order is to be shipped, otherwise it will be sent out in the manner that seems best to the shipper. SERIAL, COLOR, & CORROSION PROOFING. Be sure to indicate model and serial number of the airplane. Serial number is very important to properly identify parts used on each airplane. When color is involved refer to "Upholstery & Interior Trim" section for example. If corrosion proofing is desired add the letters "CO" following the part number. DISTRIBUTOR ORDERS. Distributors will send all orders to the factory with instructions as to the shipping destination. The factory prefers not to make C.O.D. shipments for the distributor and all billing will be made to the distributor in the case of direct shipments. RETAIL ORDERS. Retail orders will not be honored by the factory. They are to be placed with the service station or distributor in the owner's territory and when received directly by the factory will be forwarded to the distributor from whose territory it was received. Considerable saving in time will result to the owner if his orders are placed with his service station or distributor. ADDITIONAL PUBLICATIONS.
