8.16 Changing Engine Oil
To change engine oil, you have to spin the propeller in operation direction first, until you can hear a
bubbling noise out of the oil expansion tank. Now the engine oil is transferred to the tank and it is possible
to drain it completely by opening the drain plug. Do NOT unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the
crank case! To refill, you need about 0.8 gallons of new engine oil as recommended. Please refer also to
the Rotax operators manual latest issue for detailed information.
8.17 Exhaust System Servicing
The REMOS exhaust system used on the REMOS GX
is manufactured from stainless steel. To provide
suitable cabin temperature, especially in cold climates,
a cabin heating system is included. The muffler is held
in place by eight wire springs at the connection to the
down-pipes. These springs are sealed with heat
resistant silicon to protect them from cracking. When
reassembling the exhaust system, great care has to be
taken, to ensure no part of the exhaust system touches
other components in the engine compartment. No
welding should be done to the muffler / cabin heater, if
any cracks are visible, the muffler has to be exchanged!
The exhaust system needs no servicing between
regular service intervals, but we recommend to check
for cracks prior to each flight.
