4.
Throttle friction knob (fwd cockpit only): when
rotated, adjusts throttle friction. Clockwise
rotation increases friction.
5.
Throttle
Overlay 3
a.
OFF: interrupts or prevents fuel flow to
engine
b.
IDLE: opens fuel shutoff valve to
direct fuel to fuel spray nozzles
THROTTLE
c.
APPROACH IDLE STOP: with landing
gear down and aircraft weight-off-
wheels, maintains minimum rpm at
approximately 72%
(1) Field landing: with anti-skid ON,
the approach idle stop is
withdrawn immediately upon MLG
weight-on-wheels
(2) Carrier landing: with anti-skid
OFF, the approach idle stop is
withdrawn two seconds after
touchdown (MLG weight-on-
wheels)
d.
Full forward: operates engine at
maximum- rated thrust (MRT)
6.
Finger lift: when raised, permits movement
of throttle past IDLE stop(s) to OFF
a.
Located on front of throttle below
throttle grip in both cockpits
b.
Raising finger lift allows throttle to be
moved aft past approach idle stop (if
engaged) or idle stop (throttle off)
NOTE: Raising finger lift above engine
mid-range locks throttle in position to
prevent accidental shutdown.
