Set and confirm takeoff power.
Bottom line
As power is brought to full takeoff power, the pilot completes a last check that includes confirming power is correct, engine rpm is normal, the engine is smooth, and engine instruments are normal and in green ranges. The application of power should be smooth as well as positive, because abrupt movements of the throttle in some airplanes cause the engine to falter.
