           siderable force may be required to move the
           stick laterally until proper engagement of the
           ailerons is achieved.
           Undue force should not be used to achieve
           elevator engagement. It is better to select
           Manual and try again with the control column in
           a different position. Engagement of the powered
           controls is sometimes easier at r.p.m. above 4,500.
