*1 For temperatures above/below Standard (ISA), increase/decrease Range 1,7% and Endurance
1,1% for each 10°C (18°F) above/below Standard Day Temperature for particular altitude.
*2 Leaning with exhaust gas temperature (EGT) gage
For the adjustment "Best Power", first lean the mixture to achieve the top exhaust tempe-
rature (peak EGT) and then enrich again until the exhaust temperature is 100°F lower than
peak EGT. For the adjustment "Best Economy", simply lean the mixture to achieve the top
exhaust temperature (peak EGT).
CAUTION
Always return the mixture to full rich before increasing power settings.
