2000 HOUR TBO
PROPELLER STRIKE
Overhaul is required on engines involved in a propeller strike at any RPM, including idle. Full engine tear down allows
for the inspection of all drive train parts that could have been affected by the significant loads applied to them, partic -
ularly teeth. If necessary, gears will be crack tested and any parts suspected to be at risk will be replaced.
BY ROTEC AEROSPORT
It is certainly possible for anyone mechanically experienced to attempt an overhaul of a Rotec Radial. However, with
the enormous level of experience and the countless specialised techniques , it is far safer and faster for Rotec to per-
form your engine overhaul for you.
At our facilities, it generally takes six separate engine assemblies before a new mechanic no longer requires assistance
from an experience technician. After about one year of full time assembly, we see our technicians become highly
skilled, knowing our detailed specialised techniques.
Building a single engine can be risky. Some mistakes on overhauls outside our facility have been concerning. There are
a host of potential fitting errors and not to mention oil leaks at the very least. Save time and hassle of doing it yourself.
Price:
Instead of purchasing replacement overhaul parts, then potentially causing more harm than good by installing them,
contact us for a quotation on overhaul. An overhaul on average, cost less than a quarter of what the original engine
cost, to return it to as new quality.
Procedure:
If an overhaul for servicing or a repair after an engine failure is required, contact us and prepare your engine for ship-
ping.
If failure has occurred, it is best not to dismantle the engine in any way. No matter what the cause or who is at fault, we
must make a thorough assessment and document accordingly. This is for absolute certainty of the causation, so that
the correct repairs, improvements and recommendations are made.
DO IT YOURSELF
If a user opts to conduct overhaul themselves, a disclaimer must be signed as a prerequisite to receiving:
1. Instructional advice (support is limited)
2. Replacement Overhaul Parts
This will note a user’s details and product serial number, irrespective of the circumstances. Signing of the disclaimer
recognises that the engine has not been appropriately inspected or repaired and could be at risk. For more details,
contact us at Technical@RotecAerosport.com.
WARNING:
Overhaul or modification conducted by entires unrecognised by Rotec are not covered by warranty.
Owners of engines approaching TBO or purchases of pre-owned engines often request to conduct overhaul them-
selves to reduce expenditure. We understand this and as a result offer overhaul at under a quarter the cost of a brand
new engine. The disclaimer procedure has been implemented to protect the reputation of our engine so that we can
continue to support it in the future.
