SECTION 20 - HELICOPTER SAFETY FOR MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

NOTE A
Refer to the following data modules:
DMC 39-A-00-20-00-00A-120A-A
Helicopter safety – Make the helicopter safe for maintenance
DMC 39-A-10-11-00-00A-000A-A
Helicopter – Parking in normal conditions – General

In order to prepare the helicopter for a safe maintenance, the following steps
must be achieved:
• Connect an earth point to the helicopter
• Make sure the BATTERY MASTER switch is set to OFF
• Open the following circuit breakers under ENGINE system on the
overhead console:
• IGN 1
• IGN 2
• START 1
• START 2
• Disconnect the quick-disconnect plug from the main and auxiliary
batteries.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• You must connect the bonding cable to the earth (ground) point before
you connect it to the helicopter. If you do not obey this instruction you can
