Material Information
Use only genuine ROTAX® parts and accessories for the service and maintenance of ROTAX® aircraft engines. The use of non-approved parts in ROTAX® engines is not recommended and is strongly discouraged.
Engine registration
Registration of engines serves as an important tool for the ROTAX® network, assisting in the following ways:
- Creates a better view of active fleet (Location & Size)
- Provides a base for general spare part requirement and suitable service location
- Selection of commercial or private operation provides a general indication for the yearly usage of the associated aircraft
General planning
Proper pre-planning for scheduled maintenance and overhaul times ensures availability and avoids down time.
In general, ROTAX® suggests ordering parts in advance:
3 months for larger inspections (600 hours and/or gearbox)
6 months for overhaul / engine replacement
