4. Place continuity washer (if equipped) onto shoulder of rear thrust hub.
5. Place rear thrust hub, tab washer and propeller nut on propeller shaft.
6. Thread propeller nut onto propeller shaft until nut is recessed into tab washer.
7. After propeller nut is recessed into tab washer, tighten nut securely [minimum of 55
Ib. ft. (74.5 Nm) torque].
8. Bend 3 of the tabs of tab washer down in grooves of rear thrust hub to secure propeller
nut. (If tab washer tabs do not align with slots, continue to tighten propeller nut to ob-
tain alignment. DO NOT loosen nut to align tabs.)
CAUTION
DO NOT misinterpret propeller shaft movement with propeller movement. If pro-
peller and propeller shaft together move forward-and-aft, this is normal; however,
propeller should not move forward-and-aft on propeller shaft.
9. After first use, retighten propeller nut and again secure with tab washer (Steps 7 and
8, preceding). Propeller should be checked periodically for tightness, particularly if a
stainless steel propeller is used.
