     (c) After stopping the engine and when the generator warning
         light comes on, pull out the GROUND/FLIGHT switch.
         This will ensure that all electrical services, including the
         generator warning light are isolated from the battery.

     56. Use of ejection seat equipment

         Each occupant must:-

     (a) Check that the safety pin is in position and that the
         firing cable, drogue gun and time delay mechanism trip
         rods are correctly secured. Check that the safety pin has
         been removed from the emergency oxygen cylinder and
         that the drogue gun quick-release pin has been withdrawn
         from the safety lock on the drogue gun. If the aircraft
         is to be flown solo, check that the instructor's harness is
         secured.

     (b) Enter the cockpit and adjust the seat height for optimum
         position.

     (c) Connect the survival pack to the life-saving waistcoat,
         ensuring that the quick release is below the parachute
         waist-belt.

Page 35  (d) Fasten, but do not tighten, the safety harness lap straps, and then 
Para.           proceed as follows :-
56(d)(e)
A.L.4          (i)  Pass the left leg restraint cord through the right leg garter
                      D-ring, under the safety harness lap straps and slide the right
                      shoulder harness lug through the loop on the cord. Pass the
                      negative G strap under the safety harness lap straps and slide
                      the loop on the right arm of the Y-piece onto the right shoulder
                      harness lug. Secure the shoulder harness lug in the quick
                      release box.

               (ii)  Repeat for the other leg restraint cord and other arm of the
                     negative G strap. Ensure that the right cord passes through
                     the left leg garter D-ring and that the loop slides over the left
                     shoulder harness lug. Secure the harness.

               (iii) Ensure that the safety harness quick release box is below and
                     clear of the parachute harness so that the parachute over-ride
                     D-ring is accessible. Tighten the safety harness lap straps and
                     the negative G restraining strap, then tighten the harness
                     shoulder straps.

           (e) Connect the main oxygen and emergency oxygen supply tubes to the
                oxygen mask tube and the locating chain to the life-saving
                waistcoat. To prevent possible entanglement ensure that the
                emergency oxygen tube is connected under the seat safety
                harness.
