-This helicopter is equipped with a hydraulically powered rescue hoist with a harness that can be used through the floor hatch in the center of the main cabin (see <xr id='fig:hoist' /> ). The hoist is located in the cabinet behind the pilot-side of the cockpit. When deployed for use, a combination of pulleys is used to route the cable over the hatch. The rescue harness is deployed and stowed by clicking the pulley, or pulley housing over the hatch.

 In order to use the rescue hoist, the middle hook must be removed. Deploying the hoist will automatically hide the middle hook. While the harness may be deployed without opening the floor hatches, both hatches must be open to extend the hoist cable. Users are advised not to close the hatches while the cable is deployed through them to avoid damage to the cable.

-The control panel for the hoist system is located on the overhead panel. Hydraulic and AC power must be available to use the hoist. To use the system, move the HOIST MSTR switch to the ON position. The hoist can then be controlled using the HOIST rocker switch with OUT, OFF and IN positions. The switch is spring loaded to the OFF position and must be held in place to let the cable out or in.

 The control panel also has a guarded cable cutter switch that will cut the hoist cable. This may be used in if the cable becomes entangled or emergency conditions. Note that the safety of any occupants of the harness when the cable is cut is not guaranteed.

In addition to the hoist controls, the hoist HUD also includes a release button for the hook system.

 * Stat Drp - Enables/disabled static drop mode. When static drop is enabled, the cargo load will turn static when dropped rather than staying physical. This can be useful for dropping boats on the water surface.

 The middle cargo hook (see <xr id='fig:midhook' />) is positioned near the CG of the helicopter and is the ideal hook for larger single hook loads. The middle hook is mounted on a pivoting arm that swings up or down to allow the rsecue hatch door to be closed. The hook can also be removed to allow use of the rescue hoist system. Click the arm to swing it up or down. The middle hook will hide/show as necessary when the rescue winch is deployed or hidden.
