Installing the propeller
EWM00770
WARNING
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.
q
Check the propeller shaft oil seal for dam-
age.
NOTE:
If the shear pin equipped: it is designed to
break if the propeller hits a hard underwater
obstacle to help protect the propeller and
drive mechanism. The propeller will then spin
freely on the shaft. If this happens, the shear
pin must be replaced.

CAUTION:
q Be sure to install the thrust washer be-
fore installing the propeller, otherwise
the lower case and propeller boss could
be damaged.
