3. Job Set-up
Subtask 32-31-46-941-053-A

A. Safety Precautions
(1) As necessary, use the applicable SAFETY BARRIERS, specified by the operator's instructions and your local regulations.
(2) Make sure that the ground safety locks are installed on the landing gear (Ref. AMM TASK 32-00-00-481-001).
(3) On the panel 400VU:

Make sure that the landing-gear control-lever 6GA is in the DOWN position
Put a WARNING NOTICE(S) in position to tell persons not to operate the landing gear.

(4) Put WARNING NOTICE(S) to tell persons not to pressurize the hydraulic systems:

In the cockpit, on the HYD overhead panel 40VU
On the hydraulic ground service-panels 197CB and 198CB
On the access door 195BB.

Subtask 32-31-46-869-054-A

B. Flight Configuration Precautions
(1) If the electrical power is not necessary for other maintenance tasks, de-energize the aircraft electrical circuits (Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-862-002). Then it is not necessary to operate the LGCIU circuit breakers.
(2) If the electrical power is necessary, do the flight configuration precautions with electrical power (Ref. AMM TASK 32-00-00-860-001) before you open the circuit breakers.
