PART 5 HYDRAULIC EMERGENCIES
EMERGENCY HYDRAULICS SYSTEM OPERATION
19 AUXILIARY ELECTRIC HYDRAULIC PUMP
Normal back-up for the hydraulic system is the electric hydraulic pump situated on the
forward bulkhead in the Galley near the top of the fuselage. This pump drains outboard to
Starboard and the drain should be checked during Preflight to ensure that no leakage is
occurring.
The switch for this pump is located on the Yoke.
The electric hydraulic pump carries out all the functions of the engine driven pump, but its
use should be monitored. It is a high drain on the electrical system if the generators are
not charging, so will deplete the batteries quickly. If it is used during flight then it should be
restricted to use only when a hydraulic service is to be operated.
In normal operation the hydraulic system is 'idled' by an unloading valve. It is not operating
under pressure, but supplies pressure only when asked to by a service being operated.
The electric pump should only be operated when a service is to be used, to prevent undue
wear and heating of the pump, and undue loading of the electrical system.
20 EMERGENCY HYDRAULIC HAND PUMP
The emergency hand pump is situated on the floor between the two Pilots It Is activated by
inserting it's handle (kept behind F/O's seat) and pumping fore and aft vigorously. Provided
fluid remains in the hydraulic system all normal hydraulic procedures can be completed by
using the hand pump.
WARNING. The Hydraulic Hand pump has no pressure relief valve associated with its
use. The system can be overloaded by pumping too vigorously. The
Hydraulic Pressure Gauge must be monitored whenever the hand pump is
used.
