12-10 FUEL SYSTEM – SERVICING PRACTICES
General
Each fuel tank is filled through a single filler cap located on the wing upper skin.
Each tank has a capacity of 50 Lt (100 Lt total fuel capacity), 0.5 Lt are unusable
(1 Lt total fuel unusable).
Observe all required safety precautions and use the fuel specified on the placard
adjacent to the filler cap and here reported:
Do not refuel the aircraft near flames or sparks; direct contact of fuel
with the skin can cause disease. During refueling apply grounding and
make sure that a fire extinguisher is available in the area. Master switch
has to be turned OFF. Do not refuel with passengers on board.
Use only clean fuel servicing equipment.
Prolonged use of Aviation Fuel Avgas 100LL results in greater wear of
valve seats and greater combustion deposits inside cylinders due to higher
lead content. It is therefore suggested to avoid using this type of fuel unless
strictly necessary. Make reference to Rotax Maintenance Manual which
prescribes dedicated checks due to the prolonged use of Av-gas.
APPROVED FUEL: MOGAS ASTM D4814
EN 228 SUPER (MIN RON 95)
AVGAS MIN GRADE 100LL
