Safety information
The engine should only be installed and placed into operation by persons familiar with the use of
the engine and informed with regard to possible hazards.
Only ULPower authorized service centres are qualified to work on these engines.
This engine is designed for possible application on aircraft used in VFR conditions which have the
capabilities of controlled gliding without engine power.
You should be aware that any engine may seize or stall at any time. This could lead to a crash
landing and possible severe injury or death. For this reason, we recommend strict compliance
with the maintenance and operation and any additional information which may be given to you by
your dealer.
Never fly the aircraft equipped with this engine at locations, airspeeds, altitudes, or other
circumstances from which a successful no-power landing cannot be made, after sudden engine
stoppage.
This engine is not suited for acrobatics (inverted flight, etc.).
It should be clear that the choice, selection and use of this particular engine on any aircraft is at
the sole discretion and responsibility of the aircraft manufacturer, assembler and owner/user.
ULPower makes no warranty or representation on the suitability of its engine's use on any
particular aircraft. Furthermore, ULPower makes no warranty or representation of this engine's
suitability with any other part, component or system which may be selected by the aircraft
manufacturer, assembler or user for aircraft application.
Never run the engine without a propeller or flywheel as this will inevitably cause engine damage
and present a hazard of explosion.
Propeller/flywheel and its attachment with a moment of inertia in excess of the specified value
must not be used and releases engine manufacturer from any liability.
Improper engine installation and use of unsuitable piping for fuel-, cooling- and lubrication system
releases engine manufacturer from any liability.
Unauthorized modifications of engine or aircraft will automatically exclude any liability of the
manufacturer for direct, indirect and/or sequential damage.
Spare parts must meet with the requirements defined by the engine manufacturer. This is only
warranted by use of genuine ULPower spare parts and/or accessories. They are available at the
authorized ULPower distribution- and service partners.
The use of anything other than genuine ULPower spare parts and/or accessories will render any
warranty relating to this engine null and void.
Respect all government or local rules pertaining to flight operation in your flying area. Fly only
when and where conditions, topography, and airspeeds are safest.
Select and use proper and calibrated aircraft instrumentation. This instrumentation is not
included with the basic ULPower engine.
Before flight, ensure that all engine controls are operative. Make sure all controls can be reached
in case of an emergency.
Unless in a run up area, never run the engine with the propeller turning while on the ground. Do
not operate engine if bystanders are close.
In the interest of safety, the aircraft must not be left unattended while the engine is running.
Keep an engine log and respect engine and aircraft maintenance schedules. Keep the engine in
top operating condition at all times. Do not operate any aircraft which is not properly maintained
or has engine operating irregularities which have not been corrected.
