An adaptor spacer is necessary in the following case:
Engine propeller-shaft different than the type Rotax (other than P.C.D. Ø101.6mm/Ø4")
If needed, see in annex 9.1 Dimension of the engine propeller-shaft
Determination of the adaptor spacer length:
Measure the distance X between the propeller-shaft and the limit of the engine hood, then add 14mm.
Available adpator spacer:
Continental O-200
Lycoming O-233 / 235
Lycoming O-320 (3/8 dowels)
Lycoming O-320 (7/16" dowels)
Placing of brake plates under the heads of the fixing bolts of the spacer to prevent the unscrewing of these. (steps
folding 1 → 2 → 3)
→ The length of the hardware necessary to fix the propeller is defined by the DUC Hélices design office. This is also
the case when it is necessary to set up an intermediate spacer.
→ Tightening screws: see step 7 of § 5.3. Propeller adjustment & Finalizing the assembly.
