Check Of Level And Condition - Rotax RM1 Operator's Manual

5.2. Check of level and condition

5.2.1. Gear oil
The gearbox chamber is already filled by the factory
with the necessary oil quantity. The oil level,
however, should be checked regularly as per
Maintenance Schedule.
Place vehicle on a horizontal space.
Remove the right rear tire.
Check oil level in the inspection glass.
The oil level should be up to the middle of the inspection glass (see illustration).
If the oil level is too low, refill with oil (see Chapter "Change of gear oil").
Attention: If the engine is operated with too low gear oil level, this will cause engine- resp. gear
damage.
5.2.2. Engine coolant
For sufficient cooling of the engine it is necessary that the cooling circuit is completely filled.
Open radiator cap.
The level of the coolant should be above
the top row of cooling fins.
Attention: Open the radiator cap carefully as
the cooling circuit might be under
pressure. Risk of burning by hot
coolant.
If the coolant level is too low, refill with coolant.
Proceed as follows:
Refill with coolant of the prescribed specification until full.
Refit the radiator cap.
Attention: If the engine is operated with insufficient coolant, the engine may be damaged.
Note: If there is again loss of coolant search for the cause. If you cannot find the reason,
please, contact a ROTAX Service Center.
