make the nose gear wheels go back to the center position.
(Ref. Fig. 202/TASK 09-10-00-991-019)
(d) Keep a minimum of 3 m (9.84 ft.) separation from the nose wheels,
towbar and tractor while the aircraft moves.
(Ref. Fig. 201/TASK 09-10-00-991-020)
R 1
_ For a tractor with a towbar, a maximum speed of 25 km/h (15.5
R mph) is permitted.
R 2
_ For a tractor without towbar, a maximum speed of 32 km/h (19.8
R mph) is permitted.
(b) Passenger/crew doors fully open and locked and/or cargo doors
open in vertical position:
R 1
_ The maximum speed permitted is 10 km/h (6.21 mph).

_ Measure the wind speed.
2
_ Do a check of aircraft stability (Ref. TASK 05-57-00-200-001).
