WATER PRESSURE
IMPORTANT: Apply Triple-Guard grease to the entire pro-
peller shaft before installing the propeller. At least annually,
remove the propeller and check for debris. Clean the shaft
and regrease it before reinstalling a propeller.
An optional water pressure gauge is recommended to
monitor cooling system pressures. Noticing changes in wa-
ter pressure can help prevent engine overheating. The wa-
ter pressure gauge must be connected at the correct point
to ensure the most accurate pressure readings. Follow the
installation instructions included with the water pressure
gauge.
Installation

Repair
If your propeller hits a solid object, the impact is partially
absorbed by the rubber bushing in the hub to help prevent
damage to the outboard. A strong impact can damage the
hub and propeller blades. Damage to blades can cause un-
usual and excessive vibration. Damage to the hub can
cause excessive engine RPM with little forward movement.

Propeller Selection
IMPORTANT: Avoid or limit operation using a damaged
propeller. Carry a spare propeller.
WARNING
Keep your propeller in good condition. Use a file to smooth
slight damage to blade edges. See your Dealer for repair of
serious damage.
Be alert of people in the water. Always shift the
outboard to NEUTRAL and shut off the engine
immediately when your boat is in an area where
there might be people in the water. Serious injury
or death can result from contacting a rotating pro-
peller or moving boat and outboard.
To select the correct propeller for your boating application,
your boat and outboard MUST be water tested. See your
Dealer for assistance.
IMPORTANT: The correct propeller for your boat, under
normal load conditions, will allow the engine to run near the
midpoint of the RPM operating range at full throttle. Refer
to SPECIFICATIONS on page 44.
WARNING
When servicing the propeller, always shift the out-
board to NEUTRAL position, turn the key switch
OFF, and twist and remove all spark plug wires so
the outboard cannot be started accidentally.
