For additional information concerning fuel specification consult 

Operator’s 

Manual for all versions of  Rotax 912

 supplied with the engine.  

The fuel system includes two wing tanks of 40 litres each, a central tank of 
6    litres,  Fuel  drain  valve,  fuel  valves,  a  fuel    filter,  two  fuel  pumps  and 
connecting lines. 

The  fuel  is  gravity-fed  from  the  right-hand  or  left-hand  wing  tank  into  the 
central tank depending which wing tank fuel valve is open. The fuel is then 
further directed from the central tank via the main fuel valve and fuel filter 
into the serially connected two  electrical fuel pumps which deliver the fuel 
to the engine injectors.  

The amount of fuel in each tank is indicated by a visual fuel gauge which is 
a part of each tank. Minimum fuel quantity in the central tank is indicated by 
a warning light on the instrument panel. The remaining fuel (4,1 litres),  is in 
that case enough for approximately 10 minutes of flight. The warning light 
condition  can  be  verified  any  time  by  pushing  the  control  button.  No  red 
light indication when the control button is pushed and held means the bulb 
is  blown  out  and  the  minimum  fuel  quantity  is  not  indicated:-  In  this  case, 
make a more conservative estimate for fuel on board, check fuel quantity in 
wing  tanks  and  land  as  soon  as  you  are  not  confident  of  the  fuel  quantity 
inside the wing tanks.  

Do  not  forget  to  properly  manipulate  the  fuel  tank  valves  to  ensure 
continuous flow of fuel to the engine.  

The fuel drain valve outlet is behind the left seat on the outside bottom side 
of the fuselage; to drain off water and dirt, the drain pipe is to be pressed 
into the fuselage and subsequently a fuel sample is to be taken. 

For refuelling information see sectio

1.4  Oil 

Oil tank capacity ......................................................................... 3.2 litres 

Maximum oil quantity ................................................................. 2.6 litres 

Minimum oil quantity .................................................................. 2.1 litres 

Oil specification: 

Use motorcycle oil of a registered brand with gear additive. Caution

When 

selecting  the  most  suitable  lubricants  refer  to  the  additional  information  in 
the Rotax Service Information SI-18-1997.  

 

Use only oil with API classification "

SF

" or "

SG

"!  

 

Due to the high stresses in the reduction gears, oils with 
gear additives such as high performance motor cycle oils 
are required
