WARNING
Rotating propellers can cause serious injury or death. Never operate the boat out of the water with a propeller installed.
Before installing or removing a propeller, place the drive unit in neutral and engage the lanyard stop switch to prevent the
engine from starting. Place a block of wood between the propeller blade and the anti‑ventilation plate.
1. Remove the oil fill screw and gasket.
IMPORTANT: Do not add lubricant without removing the oil level screw. The gear housing cannot be filled because of
trapped air. Fill the gear housing when the driveshaft is in the vertical position.
2. Remove any gasket material from the oil fill screw, oil level screw, and the gear housing. Install new gaskets on the oil fill
screw and the oil level screw.
