Any problems with cable-driven controls can usually be traced to one or more of the
above. Correct the problems as required. If the cable is damaged or kinked in any way it
should be replaced. Care must be taken during installation not to kink the replacement
cable and to ensure that the routing is correct and will not cause damage or kinking in
service.
After maintenance it is necessary to carefully check the easy operation of the cables
through their full range of operation, and to ensure that they are correctly secured to the
appropriate linkages.
After throttle cables have been adjusted or replaced, the carburetor system will need
to be synchronized again as per the Rotax method.
Electrical power
The Skypper 582 has a 12V electrical system essentially comprising of a 12V battery, the
Rotax generator and accessories. The Rotax manual should be consulted for the
maintenance of the engines electrical system.
The maintenance of the electrical system should include periodic inspection of the wiring
loom for chafing and other damage through its entire length. Pay special attention to the
areas that are subject to possible wear points such as sharp corners or proximity to
moving parts. It should be noted that the electrical wires may be subject to wear through
vibration in flight.
Wiring that is damaged should be replaced. If any wear points are identified, a product
such as spiral wrap should be used to cover the area. The advantage of spiral wrap is that
it allows inspection of the wires even after it is attached.
Fuses
Refer to the Illustrated Parts Catalogue. The fuses for the electrical equipment are located
inside the instrument console. An 80A inline fuse protects the positive wiring and a 15A
the power supply of the instrument panel.
The power supply cables for the instruments are protected by fuses. A 5A fuse is used for
the 12V supply and a 5A for standard instruments. If optional instruments are fitted
(radio, intercom, digital instrument etc...) complementary fuses are used to protect them.
These fuses are located on a plate behind the instrument panel.
