GEARCASE DISASSEMBLY on p. 317.
The propeller shaft bearing housing on “L2” and
“M2” models is PRESSED into gearcase housing.
“L2” TYPE GEARCASES
Remove the two screws, washers, and retainers
holding the propeller shaft bearing housing.
“M2” TYPE GEARCASES

shaft bearing housing.
Remove the propeller shaft bearing housing from
the gearcase using:
• Propeller Shaft Bearing Housing Puller Kit,
