Follow the same steps used to install the props. If you are using aftermarket props, make sure they are sized for a 4mm
prop shaft. If you are not using a 4mm prop, you will need to shim the prop shaft or use an adapter to increase the
diameter to .187.
Loosen the drives using a pair of needle nose pliers and a 2.5mm Hex Driver. Adjust the drive up or down to change the
running angle of the boat. Use degree markings on the outdrive to adjust the drive angle. Be sure both drives are set at
the same angle to prevent erratic running.
The alignment of the propeller shaft is parallel to the bottom of
the hull (Keel) which is considered zero degrees (0 deg) and a
neutral setting. The thrust of the propeller is in line with the
center of the hull and has no effect on the hull ride angle.
