Propeller Selection
The performance of your outboard motor will be critically affected by your choice of propeller, as
an incorrect choice could adversely affect performance. The outboard motor is fitted with propeller
chosen to perform well over a range of applications, but there may be uses where a propeller with a
different pitch would be more appropriate. “PARSUN” dealers stock a range of propellers and can
advise you and install a propeller on your outboard that is best suited to your application.
For a greater boat load and a low engine speed, a smaller-pitch propeller is more suitable.
Conversely, a large-pitch propeller is more suitable for a smaller operating load as it enables the
correct engine speed to be maintained.
Operation and
Installation
Mount the outboard motor on the center line (keel line) of the boat. For boats without a keel or
which are asymmetrical, consult your dealer.
