Aircraft Ground Handling and Servicing 8 - 13
8.17 Exhaust System Servicing
in the engine compartment. No welding should be done to the
muffler/cabin heater, if any cracks are visible; the muffler has to be
exchanged! The exhaust system needs no servicing between regular
service intervals, but we recommend to check for cracks prior to
each flight.
8.18 Propeller Servicing
The standard propellers on the REMOS GX are Sensenich and
Neuform. Refer to the propeller manufacturer manuals for servicing
information.
However, we strongly recommend a visual check for cracks and
damage prior to each flight. Damage to the lacquer finish may disturb
the propeller balance. Therefore it is essential to repair any failure of
the lacquer finish immediately and check/accomplish propeller
balancing.
The REMOS exhaust system used
on the REMOS GX is manufactured
from stainless steel. To provide
suitable cabin temperature,
especially in cold climates, a cabin
heating system is included. The
muffler is held in place by eight wire
springs at the connection to the
down-pipes. These springs are
sealed with heat resistant silicon to
protect them from cracking. When
reassembling the exhaust system,
great care has to be taken, to
ensure no part of the exhaust
system
touches
other
components
