Installation of Aerostop Seat Locks 1. Thoroughly inspect the seat tracks for cracks, bends, burrs or worn holes. Replace or repair as necessary per Cessna specs. 2. Check for proper operation of seat latch. It should move freely when the hand lever is pulled. The spring should be able to return the locking pins to the lock position with a "snap". All parts must function without hang-ups. 3. The most convenient and protected place to intall the Aerostop seat lock is on the inside track using only one Aerostop seat lock per seat. 4. Lift the handle all the way up and slide the Aerostop seat lock on to the rail from the back of the rail. Look up and down the track checking to make sure that there are no tight spots. It should slide freely with no binding. If there is a tight spot in question, inspect the seat track for damage, and repair as needed. 5. This device is NOT a fix for worn or improperly maintained original equipment seat tracks and latches. Aerostop seat locks are intended to be a backup device. The Aerostop seat lock is not intended to replace worn seat pins. It is meant as a backup only! Testing 1. Slide Aerostop seat lock and the seat to the rear and enter the aircraft as normal. 2. Move the seat to your normal operating position, rocking back and forth in your seat to determine that the seat pins are locked in the track. 3. Reach back between the seats with your right hand and slide the Aerostop seat lock up against the back of the seat. 4. With firm hand pressure, push down on the handle to lock the cam on the track. 5. Uplock your seat latch and push with both feet trying to move the seat to the rear. The Aerostop seat lock should remain locked and in position. Operating Procedures 1. Slide the Aerostop seat lock and the seat to the rear and enter the aircraft as normal. 2.
