Propeller Hardware Installation

uine Parts and Accessories Catalog for correct
propeller hardware.
Apply Triple Guard grease to the splines of the
propeller shaft before installing the propeller.
When installing a propeller with an interchange-
able hub, follow the instructions provided with the
propeller.
IMPORTANT: After installation, make sure out-
board is in NEUTRAL and carefully spin propeller.
Propeller must turn freely and should not spin off
center. If propeller appears to wobble, check for
possible bent propeller shaft.
