Aircraft Ground Handling and Servicing
8.1
Servicing Fuel, Oil and Coolant
The REMOS GX is designed to be easily serviceable. Access to all components which have to be
lubricated or checked regularly is possible without detaching any panels. A flap in the upper cowling
allows checking coolant and oil without removing the cowling.
The fuel filler cap is located on the right-hand side of the fuselage behind the wing. After removing the
lockable fuel filler cap, refueling is easily possible. The basic equipment provides two gauges to check
fuel level from inside the cockpit.
The first one is a fuel level sight tube located between the seats and an additional electric fuel gauge is
installed on the right-hand side of the instrument panel. Refer to Section 2 "Airplane and Systems
Descriptions" for further instructions regarding specifications and capacities.
8.2
Towing and Tie-Down Instructions
Due to the low weight of the REMOS GX it is very easy to move the aircraft on the ground by hand.
That´s why there is no special equipment for towing provided. In no case the aircraft shall be towed by
attaching any kind of towing equipment to the nose wheel!
To tie the aircraft we recommend the use of three ropes (left wing, right wing, and tail). Tie down each
wing by attaching the rope to the provided lug at the upper strut bracket. Another rope connection point is
provided at the tail skid of the aircraft.
When necessary, a fourth rope can be slid around the propeller/gear drive shaft at the nose of the aircraft.
