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.
2. Operation
2.1 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.

NOTE:
During water testing check the buoyancy of the boat, at rest, with its maximum load. Check that the
static water level on the exhaust housing is low enough to prevent water entry into the power head,
when water rises due to waves when the outboard is not running.
