do not handle the propeller with your bare
hands.
•
Put a wooden block or similar object
between the anti-ventilation plate and
propeller when removing or installing the
propeller.

1. Drain the gear oil. Refer to “Replacement of Gear Oil” in
Chapter 3.
2) Removal of Propeller
1. Shift the gear into forward (F).
•
Drain all gear oil, and check for metal particles
in the drained oil.
•
Check the gear oil color. A white or cream color
may indicate that the gear oil is contaminated

as a reference to check the disassembly and
to check for damage to the gear, oil seals,
gaskets, etc.
