3. Test/Adjust the Magnetic Compass (Compass Swing)
You must do a test for correct operation of the compass (compass swing): ) After replacing a major component. ) After replacing the compass. ) After modification to the airplane. ) After a lightning strike has been reported. ) If the airplane has been parked for more than 90 days.
CAUTION: USE ONLY NON-MAGNETIC TOOLS TO ADJUST THE COMPASS.
CAUTION: DO NOT WEAR OR CARRY METALLIC MATERIAL(WATCHES, BRACELETS ETC) WHEN YOU ADJUST THE COMPASS COMPENSATING MAGNETS OR OPERATE THE LAND COMPASS.
METALLIC MATERIALS CAN CAUSE ERRORS.
Note: If possible, use a compass swing area that has been tested for magnetic interference. In any case, use a level area which is away from steel structure, underground pipes, cables, reinforced concrete, other airplanes and ground equipment.

(3) Use a calibrated and reliable land compass to make sure of the airplane heading.
(4) Align the airplane to magnetic north. Adjust the N-S compensator magnet so that the compass indicates an airplane heading of 0°.
(5) Align the airplane to magnetic east. Adjust the E-W compensator magnet so that the compass indicates an airplane heading of 90°.
(6) Align the airplane to magnetic south. Adjust the N-S compensator magnet to remove half of the error between what is indicated and 180°.
(7) Align the airplane to magnetic west. Adjust the E-W compensator magnet to remove half of the error between what is indicated and 270°.
(8) Turn the airplane through 360°, record the deviation at each 30° radial. Prepare a deviation table that shows the corrections that must be applied to each heading. If large deviation occur when you operate electrical equipment/systems, the deviation table must also show the corrections to apply to each 30° radial when the that particular equipment/system is operated.
