WARNING

GEM 610 ENGINE ANALYZER LEANING PROCEDURES

1. Establish cruise altitude and cruise power. Make initial trim adjustments, etc. as needed to establish cruise.

2. Perform a coarse leaning or preliminary leaning of the engine until the EGT bars rise to a bar or two below the normal cruise indication.

3. Pause for two minutes to allow the engine to stabilize and cylinder head temperature to return to normal. During this time you can make final trim adjustments to the airplane, reset cowl flaps, etc.

4. Push and hold the GEM Reset Button for a second or two to enter Lean Mode. When you have entered Lean Mode, the EGT annunciator will begin blinking.

5. Slowly lean the mixture until one of the EGT columns blinks. This final leaning should take about five seconds. The blinking column of bars identifies the leanest cylinder (the first to reach peak EGT). The mixture may be slightly too lean depending upon how quickly the pilot has reacted to annunciation of peak EGT. Push the Reset Button briefly to stop the blinking.

6. Enrich the mixture as desired. Enriching the mixture until EGT drops one bar will ensure that you are not on the lean side of peak and will establish a best economy mixture setting . To select the best power setting the mixture should be enriched further to drop the EGT three to four bars from peak EGT (75-100°F).


N185TW

GEM 610 Flight Modes

The GEM 610 has three modes of operation:

• Monitor Mode• Normalize Mode• Lean Mode

1. A pilot will typically use Monitor Mode for ground operations and most phases of flight. Lean Mode may be selected to assist in adjusting fuel flow for cruise flight, while Normalize Mode may be used to detect un- commanded temperature changes during cruise flight.

2. Monitor Mode is the default power-on operating mode. All EGTs and CHTs are visible on the bar-graph, and the temperature currently displayed in the digital window is identified by the illuminated annunciator (EGT, CHT, TIT, OAT, IAT). The selected EGT or CHT cylinder number is indicated by the blanked cylinder "Highlight Box". Momentarily push the SELECT button to advance the selection (2, 3, 4, etc.). Push and hold the SELECT button to reverse (4, 3, 2, etc.). Monitor Mode can be used in any phase of flight.

3. Normalize Mode allows easy observation of any change in EGT during cruise flight. Normalize Mode is entered by pushing and holding the SELECT and RESET buttons on the GEM 610 for two seconds. The GEM will memorize the current EGT indications and electronically adjust the bar graph display to align all EGT columns with the "Reference Asterisk." Any significant change in an EGT results in obvious deviation from the "normalized" pattern. A single lighted "Highlight Box" will annunciate the cylinder


number for EGT or CHT digital display during Normalize Mode operation. Monitor Mode may be re-entered by pressing and holding the SELECT and RESET buttons for two seconds. The pilot may switch between Monitor and Normalize Mode as desired.

4. Lean Mode is the computer-assisted GEM function which allows easy identification of peak EGT on the leanest cylinder. The function can be entered from Monitor or Normalize Modes. Lean Mode is entered by holding the RESET button for two seconds. The GEM will blink the current digital display annunciator (EGT, CHT, TIT, etc...) to indicate Lean Mode operation. Lean the mixture while watching the GEM. The leanest cylinder's EGT column will blink when peak EGT is reached. Momentarily depressing the RESET button will cancel the blinking column and exit Lean Mode.
