Flight and Operational Manual
TL- 96 STAR s/n 99 S 25
Notice! The information contained in this document is for reference and information only.
The pilot is the final and only responsible party for the safe operation of this aircraft.

Wings, tale areas and the body are considered as the supporting constructions. Non-supporting
construction is the upper and the lower cover of the engine, covers of the undercarriage wheels
and the aerodynamic cover of the front undercarriage leg. There can not be any interference
made with these supporting constructions from the side of the user without the producer’s
approbation.
7.2.9. Special assembly, controlling and setting preparations
It is enough to use normal workshop tools and accessories for the maintenance of the airplane
made by the user.
7.2.10. Special tools
The barrel spanner for the sparks is part of the delivery. Other special tools are not perquisite
for normal maintenance made by the user.
7.2.11. Materials for small reparations
With regard to the type of the construction only small reparations can be made on the surface
of the airplane. For these reparations, use two component mastic. Clean and ungrease the
damage surface with technical petrol and cement it with the mastic prepared by the direction
to use. After dispersion hardening rub the mastic and varnish it.
7.2.12 Changing the fuel filter in the engine area
We can not say how often the fuel filter should be changed, because it depends on how well
you filter the fuel while filling the tanks.
That´s why use fuel filters with clear housing only, you can see the fouling of the filter. After
the first change of the filter / 12 hours the longest / change the filter after every 50 hours
preventively.
ATTENTION!
Perform the filter change on a cool engine only
The progress while changing the fuel filter:
-
close the fuel delivery
-
take out the upper cover of the engine
-
release the buckles on the petrol pipes on both sides of the filter, leave the buckles on
the pipes
-
take out the filter while turning the pipes smoothly, take care about the leaking fuel
from the pipes / you can close the pipe temporarily by compressing the screw shank M6
-
slip on the pipes on the filter and compress their ends to the body of the filter
-
slip on the buckles on the pipes in place of mouthpiece of the filter and tighten the
buckles, make sure no buckle is disvalued by the slipped thread or any other way
-
ensure the buckles of the filter against the axle dislocation by the ensuring wire
-
after changing the filter let the engine operate for five minutes with no load, then turn it
off and make sure the filter is filled with petrol
-
assemble the upper cover of the engine
Remark: If you will not close the fuel delivery while changing the filter, all the petrol between
the part of the fuel pipes and the filter and the fuel tank will leak back to the tank, the self-
priming pump will needlessly suck the fuel from the tank to the system for very long time.
