Van's Aircraft RV-12 Maintenance Manual

Rev.5
12-2
.OVERVIEW
Engine information is taken from Rotax documentation. For complete engine
information refer to the Rotax engine documentation. Note: Rotax is the primary
authority for specifying the level of certification required by an individual
performing maintenance or repair on a Rotax 912 engine. Refer to the Rotax
documentation to determine the qualifications or training required for any
maintenance or repair action.
The top and bottom engine cowling are a formed composite of fiberglass cloth
and epoxy-resin. The cowl is attached using screws and segments of piano hinge.
Hinge also attaches the top and bottom cowl halves together. Adhesive heat shielding
protects the inner surface of the cowl. The throttle and choke are the only engine
controls. Air duct and engine cooling shrouds of similar construction provide cooling to
the cylinders and heat exchangers.
• NOTE: This maintenance manual is intended to be used in conjunction with
the RV-12 Kit Assembly Instructions (KAI) when completing maintenance or
repair processes.
