Notes Before Starting Engine
Jabiru Aircraft Pty Ltd
2200 Hydraulic Lifter Engine
WARNING
This engine has been run in and is ready for flight. This engine uses hydraulic lifters for
valve operation.
DO NOT GROUND RUN THIS ENGINE
This engine has been inhibited and the oil system drained. Before first start of new
engine, remove 1 spark plug from each head. Add the required run-in oil to sump (2.3
litres), engine must have oil cooler fitted. Press starter to obtain oil pressure and to throw
out excess inhibiting oil in cylinders. Replace plugs. NOTE: ALL plastic bungs must be
removed
Note: Cylinder heads have a 1/8 NPT plug to be unscrewed to uncover head bolt No. 5.
After torquing, reset plug.
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten. Over-tightening will eventually loosen fit between
plug & head to the point where the plug will not be secure.
Figure 39
– Head Bolt Locations
If the engine is run on the ground before flight use minimum power settings and
minimum time to avoid overheating. If the engine is to be run at more than idle power
on the ground extra-large cooling ducts and oil cooler will be required.
For the first 25 hours of operation, add 2.2 litres of Shell 100 oil. After 25 hours drain
oil, check torque of cylinder head bolts to 20 ft lbs.
