Repair
If your propeller hits a solid object, the impact is par-
tially absorbed by the rubber bushing in the hub to
help prevent damage to the engine. A strong impact
can damage the hub and propeller blades. Damage
to blades can cause unusual and excessive vibra-
tion. Damage to the hub can cause excessive en-
gine RPM with little forward movement.
Wedge  a  block  of  wood   between  the  propeller
blade and the anti-ventilation plate.
IMPORTANT: Avoid or limit operation using a dam-
aged propeller. Carry a spare propeller.
Keep your propeller in good condition. Use a file to
smooth  slight  damage  to  blade  edges.  See  your
Dealer for repair of serious damage.
Install propeller nut and tighten to a torque of 36 to
43 ft.lbs. (50 to 60
N·m).
Continue to tighten propeller nut until nut slots and
cotter pin hole are   aligned. Install new cotter pin
and bend ends to secure.
