13.12 STUFFING BOX
- The stern gland keeps the propeller shaft watertight.
- The stern gland is accessible through the engine compartment.
- Grease the watertight joint every 200 engine hours (or at least once a year). Apply grease as recommended by the
mechanic.
- The stern gland is lubricated directly by the engine cooling water/by a sea water supply valve.
- After launching the boat, drive the air out from the sleeve pinching it with your fingers.
13.13 PROPELLER
- The propeller delivered with the boat represents the end result of trials carried out in collaboration with the engine
manufacturer. Never change the propeller without first consulting a professional engineer.
- Propeller efficiency will drop if the propeller blades are damaged in any way or dirty: regularly clean the blades carefully.
- During a lift-out, check the propellor: it should turn freely on its axis and there should be no play.
- Boats with twin engines are equipped with counter-rotating propellers.
