Propeller Installation
WARNING
If gear housing is not removed from drive shaft
housing, before attempting to remove or install
the propeller, remove (and isolate) spark plug
leads from spark plugs to prevent engine from
starting accidentally.
1. Apply a liberal coat of one of the following Quick-
silver products on propeller shaft splines:
– Special Lubricant 101 (P/N 92-13872A1)
– 2-4-C w/Teflon (92-825407A12)
– Anti-Corrosion Grease (92-19007A24)

3. Install tab washer and locknut.
4. Thread locknut onto propeller shaft until locknut is
recessed into tab washer.
5. Torque locknut to 55 lbs. ft. (75 N·m).
6. Bend 3 tabs of tab washer down into grooves to
secure locknut. If tab washer tabs do not align
with slots, continue to tighten locknut to obtain
alignment.
Do not misinterpret propeller shaft movement
with propeller movement. If propeller and
propeller shaft together move forward-and-aft,
this is normal; however, propeller should not
move forward-and-aft on propeller shaft.
CAUTION
7. After first use, retighten propeller nut and again
secure with tab washer. Propeller should be
checked periodically for tightness, particularly if a
stainless steel propeller is used.
