Engine mount service bulletin

Bulletin AG-SB-2021-01-B-EN (effective 20 April 2021, category B recommended) says the lower engine mounting bolts on Cavalons with the Rotax 915iS can lose clamping torque through heat and vibration. Binx M10 nuts (43511) or SI Nyloc M10 nuts (20183) are replaced with M10 SI full metal nuts (23630). Estimated labour is 0.8 hr, and the bulletin says to do the check at the earliest opportunity.

What to check on inspection

Look at the lower engine mounting nuts. If SI full metal M10 nuts are fitted, no action is needed. Otherwise the target torque is 39 Nm, with at least 1.5 bolt threads protruding from the nut. The bulletin must be recorded in the aircraft documents. Ask to see the entry. Also confirm the manual revision and the type certificate paperwork.

Documentation and support

The manual lists AutoGyro GmbH in Hildesheim as manufacturer. In the Czech and Slovak Republics, AGN SYSTEMS is the distribution partner and holds the Czech type certificate, ULV-01/2015 plus supplements. The handbook has 168 pages, with sections on limitations, emergency and normal procedures, and performance.

Safety notes

  • Operate only within the limits and procedures in the flight manual. Ignoring them or skipping proper gyroplane training can have very dangerous consequences.
  • Loose lower engine mounting nuts on the Rotax 915iS Cavalon are a known issue. Have the fastenings checked, and fixed if needed, by trained maintenance staff.
