Oil Specifications
Oil used is Super two stroke ASTM/CEC standards, API-TC classification (consult your Rotax dealer for
the recommended oil to suit your operating conditions).
4.8 Helmet Recommendation
The open cockpit of the Edge XT exposes the occupants to the elements during flight and exposes them
to objects outside of the aircraft in an emergency situation.
Helmets and eye protection are recommended for occupants for protection from precipitation, strike by
insects and birds. Helmets are also recommended for risk reduction during an emergency landing of
the aircraft. The helmets recommended for use in the aircraft are those certified to the EN 966
standard, that is applicable to helmets for air sports. The standard prescribes tests for penetration
resistance, shock absorbing properties, field of vision and head mobility.

The following checklists should be used as a reference. More detailed procedures are found in the

Prior to flight a thorough pre-flight inspection of the aircraft should be carried out. Details of the pre-flight
inspection are shown earlier in this section.
