service manuals

Post by 8448 »

I am a new owner wanting to confirm all the maintenance requirements on the 120. I have found the Cessna Temporary Revision Number 7 from 1953 forward but it does not specifically include the 120 or 140. What documents are typically used to do a complete inspection on the 120?

The owner's manual contains regular maintenance information (mostly lubrication.) The Association Maintenance manual contains a wealth of information. The Cessna 100 series manual, while not specifically for the 120/140, also contains a lot of pertinent information. FAR part 43 Appendix D contains "Scope and Detail of Items To Be Included in Annual and 100-Hour Inspections." Finally, the Documents section of the Association Library contains a sample inspection checklist.
