WARNING
The area between the front and rear halves of
the flight deck scrubber is known as a pinch area
because the halves come together during a turn.
(See fig. 13-14.) During maintenance activities,
the articulated joint can be locked with a pin to
keep the halves from accidentally coming
together. The pivot locking pin is hung on the
tractor section of the flight deck scrubber, adjacent
ASf13015
to the pivot point. The pin should be inserted prior
to working in this area. And, when work is
completed, be sure to remove the pin so that full
steering is available to the operator.
