Instructions For Multiple Aircraft From Air Tractor To Vulcanair P86C Have Been Published
Hartzell Propeller Inc. has translated key propeller owner manuals into Mandarin, the official spoken language of the People's Republic of China. The propeller manuals cover a number of aircraft approved for flight in China by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC).
“This latest initiative by Hartzell Propeller demonstrates that the company is committed to Chinese owners, operators and mechanics,” said Weiqing (Max) Wang, Hartzell Propeller Managing Director for China, based in Shanghai City. “We have completed translations of propeller owner manuals into Mandarin for the most popular turboprop and piston-powered aircraft which come equipped with our propellers.”
The translated Hartzell Propeller turbine manuals include Manual No. 139 for Steel Hub Turbine Propellers with Aluminum Blades and No. 149 for Lightweight Turbine Propellers with Aluminum Blades. In addition, Manual No. 115 N for “Compact” Models with Aluminum Blades covers nearly all the Hartzell-equipped piston engine aircraft operating in China.
The Chinese translated manuals cover the following aircraft:
- Air Tractor AT402B, AT-504, AT-802
- Beechcraft Baron 58
- Beechcraft Bonanza 36
- Beechcraft King Air C90GTi, B200, 350

“As the number of Hartzell Propeller equipped aircraft flying in China continues to grow, including a number of newly delivered aircraft utilizing structural composite blades, the need for operation, maintenance and repair manuals in Mandarin will continue to grow," Wang said. "Hartzell Propeller is dedicated to ensuring that Chinese customers have the technical information to safely and efficiently operate and maintain their aircraft with manuals written in Mandarin.”
In addition to Mandarin translations, Hartzell Propeller has established a dedicated Type Certificate Validation Department to support the increasing globalization of general aviation. The Validation Department is committed to developing enhanced professional relationships with the CAAC and other airworthiness authorities to ensure efficient validation of Hartzell’s Propeller Type Certificates to support operation of our customer’s aircraft worldwide.
