On counter rotation models, be sure to
use a propeller intended for counterclock-
wise rotation. These propellers are identi-
fied with the letter “L” after the size
indication on the propeller. Otherwise the
boat could move in the opposite direction
from that expected.

Make sure to use a new cotter pin and
bend the ends over securely. Otherwise,
the propeller could come off during oper-
ation and be lost.
1. Apply Yamalube Marine Grease or a cor-
rosion resistant grease to the propeller
shaft.
2. Install the thrust washer, spacer (if
equipped), and propeller on the propeller
shaft. NOTICE: Make sure to install the
thrust washer before installing the
propeller. Otherwise, the lower case
and propeller boss could be damaged.
