4 Propeller shaft coupling
The coupling is designed for a 25 mm diameter propeller shaft.
When a propeller shaft of larger diameter is used, it should be re-
duced to a diameter of 25 mm over the length of the hub (38 mm ,
1 1/2").
Radius 'R' must be a minimum of 2 mm.
• The propeller shaft should be inserted into the hub over the
length stated.
The shaft and hub should be free of grease and dirt (*).
• Tighten up the bolts to a torque of 60 Nm (44 lbs.ft).
• Use a torque wrench for this, tightening up 'by feel' will not give a
satisfactory result.
It is not necessary to fit a thrust bearing behind the coupling.

Propeller shaft installation

The propeller shaft should have a diameter of at least 25 mm.
Because of the axial movement of the propeller shaft, there must be
a minimum free space between:
- The outer bearing and the propeller hub;
- The inner bearing and the coupling hub.
• Lock the propeller shaft cap nut with a lock plate.
6 Propeller and propeller aperture
The space between the tips of the propeller blades and the bottom
of the boat should be at least 15% of the propeller diameter.
The distance from propeller hub to outer bearing must be at least
10 mm (3/8"), but not more than 60 mm (2 3/8").
It is useful when working on the motor if the shaft can be pushed
about 10 cm (4") backwards.
The water must be able to flow freely over a distance of at least 10 cm
(4") forward and aft of the propeller.
