▲ WARNING: For upside down installation of the engine, the lubrication system,
fuel system and the cooling system are unsuitable!
Longitudinal axis:
- The centre of the attachment points L1 and L(T)2 must be on axis x2 parallel to
the x axis.
Allowable pitch deviation of parallelism of axes:
max. 6° counter-clockwise, on ground
max. 10° counter-clockwise, in operation
max. 30° clockwise (See Fig. 9)
