Continental Maintenance and Operators Manual

Teledyne Continental Motors (TCM) engine operating instructions are generated prior to and independently of the aircraft operating instructions established by the airframe manufacturer. TCM’s operating instructions are developed using factory controlled parameters that are developed using factory controlled parameters that are not necessarily the same as those specifications required to satisfy a specific aircraft /engine installation. Because of this difference the aircraft operator should use the airframe manufacturer’s operating instructions found in the Pilots Operating Handbook(POH) while operating the aircraft unless otherwise specified by the original airframe manufacturer.
