Installing the propeller

WARNING
On counter rotation models, be sure to
use a propeller intended for counter-
clockwise rotation. These propellers are
identified 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.

q Be sure to install the thrust washer be-
fore installing the propeller, otherwise
