REPLACEMENT PARTS
The RV-12 KAI is the primary reference for replacement part information. Section
Four in the KAI is a directory of all part numbers with reference information of where to
find it within the main KAI manual. The documentation produced by third party parts
manufacturers (listed above) should be used as the primary reference for part
information for those components.
METHOD
The pages throughout this maintenance manual are numbered at the bottom with
the chapter number followed by a dash and the page number of the applicable chapter.
There are many cross-references in this manual. Cross-references within this manual
are made using the page numbers, unless otherwise specified. Following is an example
of a typical cross-reference to additional information within this manual. Example: When
there is additional information that is related to this sentence the cross-reference to that

Chapter 1 will introduce general information that is helpful for using this manual.
General information includes manual introduction, general safety information,
notification methods, abbreviations, collective tool list, list of expendables, lubrication
and capacities and general procedures.
Chapter 2 introduces the service schedule checklist.
Chapter 3 provides an explanation of the annual/100 hour inspection checklist
including illustrations that clarify some checkpoints of the aircraft. Read Chapter 1–3
prior to performing the inspection, and use it as a reference during the inspection.
Chapter 4 and following begin with an illustration of the subject discussed, an
‘Overview’ of the chapter content and a list of ‘Components’. The 'Service' section,
where applicable, begins with a table of ‘Supplies’, which includes; ‘Tools’, ‘Expendable’
and ‘Replaceable’ parts. The service section provides instructions for ‘General’ removal,
replacement and installation that are acceptable for the owner or operator to perform.
The service section also includes instructions for ‘Service Schedule Procedures’ which
correspond to the items on the 'Service Schedule Checklist'. Each service section task
includes a table that summarizes the properties of the task.
The task summary table lists the Tools, Expendable, and replaceable items that
are task specific. Only tools specific to the immediate task will be listed. In cases that
another task must be done to complete the immediate task, the tools needed for the
other task will be given in the instructions that correspond to that task. Some
recommended tools will require other tools to be effective; for example: sockets will
require a ratchet; drill bits will require a drill. Unless otherwise specified the driving tool
is implied rather than listed. The table also includes the ‘Service Rating’ applicable to
the task, the ‘Minimum Certification’ required to perform the task legally, and ‘Additional
References’ that may be helpful or necessary to complete the task. Each hardware item
to be removed in the service instructions will be followed by the quantity (if greater than
one) in parenthesis. For example, an instruction step that requires the removal of one
