Reactivation of the Rain Repellent System

TASK 30-45-00-440-002-A
Reactivation of the Rain Repellent System

WARNING: THE RAIN REPELLENT FLUID GAGE IS CONSIDERED AS AN ASSEMBLY. THE COMPONENTS OF THIS ASSEMBLY, ESPECIALLY THE PRESSURE GAGE, MUST NOT BE REPLACED ON AIRCRAFT.

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT YOU DEPRESSURIZE THE RAIN REPELLENT SYSTEM BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE RAIN REPELLENT FLUID-CAN. RAIN REPELLENT FLUID CAN COME OUT SUDDENLY IF YOU REMOVE THE FLUID CAN WITH THE SYSTEM PRESSURIZED.

WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE CONSUMABLE MATERIALS. OBEY THE MATERIAL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AND YOUR LOCAL REGULATIONS.

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE CIRCUIT BREAKERS RELATED TO THE WEATHER RADAR ARE OPENED, SAFETIED AND TAGGED.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE FLUID DOES NOT STAY ON THE AIRCRAFT STRUCTURE. IF THE FLUID GETS ON THE AIRCRAFT STRUCTURE, WASH IT OFF IMMEDIATELY WITH SOAP AND WATER.

NOTE: If there is leakage of FORALKYL 2211, you can smell a pine odor.

1. Reason for the Job
To fill the rain repellent system with rain repellent fluid after storage of the aircraft for a long period.

NOTE: This reactivation task is not related to an AFM-CDL/MMEL item.
