WARNING
The proper performance of the engine at MAX should be checked early in the take-off procedure, so that the take-off can be aborted if necessary.

NOTE
In strong crosswinds steering can be augmented by use of the toe brakes. It should be noted, however, that this method increases the take-off roll, and should not generally be used.
NOTE
For soft field take-off hold elevator back pressure during take-off roll until nose lift-off. Accelerate to initial climb speed after lift-off.

CAUTION
If the oil temperature and/or coolant temperature reaches the yellow range during climb, flight should be continued with an airspeed increased by 5 kt and power reduced by 10 % (reduced climb rate) for better engine cooling.
NOTE
Operating in the gearbox cautionary range is permitted.
However, prolonged operation is not recommended.
