CHECKING PROPELLER

1) Remove the 5 screws and the cover.

2) Remove the spark plug caps from the

spark plugs.

You could be seriously injured if the

engine accidentally starts while you are

near the propeller.

8 Before inspecting, removing or

installing the propeller, remove the

spark plug caps from the spark plugs.

Also, put the shift control in Neutral,

put the main switch in the “OFF” posi-

tion and remove the key, and remove

the lanyard from the engine stop

switch. Turn off the battery cut-off

switch if your boat has one.

8 Do not use your hand to hold the pro-

peller when loosening or tightening the

propeller nut. Put a wood block

between the cavitation plate and the

propeller to prevent the propeller from

turning.
