8.1 Introduction
In this section the suggested procedures for the proper handling of the aircraft on the ground as well as
servicing are described. Additionally, certain inspection and maintenance regulations are shown, which must
be adhered to if the motor glider is to operate with regard to performance and reliability as if new. It is
suggested to keep to the lubrication plan whilst observing special preventative service operations in view of
particular climatic and operating conditions.
8.2 Inspection Intervals for the Motorglider
Engine: see engine maintenance manual.
• shortest interval 50 h
• first inspection after 25 h.

8.4 Handling on Ground / Road Transport
• tie down: screw in eyelets under inner wing ends and tie down vertically
• pushing backwards: guide on fin and only push on inner wing.
• road transport: see manual for trailer.
8.5 Cleaning and Care
It is suggested not to leave the aircraft outside unnecessarily, since even after a few short weeks the
polyester paint can dry out and crack due to the UV radiation.
The surface and other parts require regular servicing. Detailed suggestions are found in the maintenance
manual.
