THOSE PORTIONS OF THE AIRPLANE AFFECTED BY THE INSTALLATION MUST BE
INSPECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ICA PUBLISHED BY THE OWNER OF THE
STC. SINCE NON-PIPER APPROVED STC INSTALLATIONS MAY CHANGE SYSTEMS
INTERFACE, OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS AND COMPONENT LOADS OR

This publication is prepared in accordance with the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA)
Specification No. 2, with respect to the arrangement and content of the System/Chapters within the

WARNING: USE ONLY GENUINE PIPER AIRCRAFT PARTS OR PIPER AIRCRAFT APPROVED
PARTS OBTAINED FROM PIPER APPROVED SOURCES, IN CONNECTION WITH THE
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF PIPER AIRPLANES.
Genuine PIPER parts are produced and inspected under rigorous procedures to ensure airworthiness
and suitability for use in PIPER airplane applications. Parts purchased from sources other than PIPER,
even though identical in appearance, may not have had the required tests and inspections performed,
may be different in fabrication techniques and materials, and may be dangerous when installed in an
airplane.
Reworked, salvaged or those parts obtained from non-PIPER approved sources, which the service
history is unknown or cannot be authenticated, may have been subjected to unacceptable stresses or
temperatures or have other hidden damage, not discernible through routine visual or usual
nondestructive testing. This may render the part, component or structural assembly, even though
originally manufactured by PIPER AIRCRAFT unsuitable and unsafe for airplane use.
PIPER AIRCRAFT, INC. expressly disclaims any responsibility for malfunctions, failures, damage or
injury caused by use of non-PIPER approved parts.
NOTE: PIPER AIRCRAFT, INC. expressly reserves the right to supersede, cancel and/or declare
obsolete any part, part numbers, kits or publication that may be referenced in this manual
without prior notice.
Any question concerning the care of your airplane, be sure to include the airplane serial number in any
correspondence.
