RM80 components and elements.

MAINTENACE

FIRST 10 HOURS (RUNNING-IN)
1.- Check torque of all screws and nuts of the engine and of all other elements related, especially 

the exhaust pipe.
2.- Check torque of all screws and nuts of the chassis and all its elements.
3.- Check torque of all cylinder head nuts with a torque wrench (9 Nm or 0.9 Kgm), with a cold 

engine in order to avoid distortions.
4.- Check inside Walbro carburettor petrol filter by opening the inner part cover..
5.- Check torque of all screws of the wood propeller (max. 11 Nm or 1,1 Kgm), carbon propeller 

(max. 8 Nm or 8 Kgm).
6.- Check spark plug. The inner part colour should be clear brown and have a 0.5 mm gap 

between electrodes.
7.- Adjust Paramotor ACTIVE SYSTEM anchor arms to paraglider in order to get the best balance 

in flight (during the 1st hour of flight).

EVERY 20 HOURS. Same as every 5 hours, and:
1.- Check main engine elements: main screws and nuts, cylinder head torque (9 Nm or 0.9 

Kgm), outside petrol filter and inside carburettor filter, wood propeller torque (max. 11 Nm or 

1,1 Kgm), carbon propeller torque (max. 8 Nm or 8 Kgm) , spark plug check, clutch check 

and its springs.
2.- Check spark plug. The inner part colour should be clear brown and have a 0.5 mm gap 

between electrodes.
3.- Proceed with internal cleaning of petrol pump pressure tube (TDR Dellorto carburettor version).
4.- Check movement of exhaust pipe elements and their supports.

EVERY 50 HOURS. Same as every 5 + 20 hours, and:
1.- Check state and elasticity of inlet plates. If they are worn or not elastic anymore, please 

replace them.
2.- Check state and elasticity of carburettor films. If they are worn or not elastic anymore, 

please replace them.
3.- Check state of the clutch and the hood, Ferodo and hood frictions. This should be 1.2mm thick 

minimum. Clean inside opening of the hood.
4.- Check state of piston ring. Clean residue out of cylinder head, exhaust manifold, piston, 

and cylinder. Check rod needle bearing set by vertically moving the piston. Change cylinder 

seam (it should have the same thickness) and cylinder head seam (O-ring).
5.- Change and check contact between spark plug cable and pipette.

EVERY 5 HOURS
1.- Smooth cleaning of engine and all other elements related for a proper operation.
2.- Fix any issue, especially if it is not under the normal checking periods.

IMPORTANT: after your engine having running one hour check torque of all cylinder head 

nuts with a torque wrench (9 Nm or 0.9 Kgm)
