Rotax 912 series Operator's Manual page 42

Effectivity: 912 Serie
OM Rev. 2
Oil capacity: ................... 3 l (min. 2 l) (6.4 liq pt, min. 4.2 liq pt)
Oil consumption: ........... max 0,06 l/h (0.13 liq pt/h)
Oil viscosity:
Use of multi-grade oils is recommended.
NOTE: Multi-viscosity grade oils are less sensitive to
temperature variations than single grade oils.
They are suitable for use throughout the seasons,
ensure rapid lubrication of all engine components
at cold start and get less fluid at higher
temperatures.
Table of lubricants (See fig. 15)
Since the temperature range of neighbouring SAE grades overlap,
there is no need for change of oil viscosity at short duration of
ambient temperature fluctuations.
