Engine & Controls
ENGINE MOUNTS
The engines are placed in the boat on a set of metal or
wooden platforms called mounts. These rubber isola-
tion mounts keep the engine from moving laterally and
athwartships (right angles to the center line). The mounts
help reduce the vibration caused by the engine and drive.
Periodically, the mount hardware should be checked for
tightness by your authorized Regal dealer.
ENGINE ALIGNMENT
Selected stern drives use a rubber splined hub to which
the stern drive shaft is attached. There is an alignment
speci
fi
cation between the engine and stern drive that
needs to be checked periodically. A special alignment
shaft is greased at the tip and inserted through the gim-
bal housing with the drive unit removed from the vessel.
The alignment angle can be determined by the spline im-
age left on the tool. The engine mounts are then adjusted
to obtain a spline image mirrored 360 degrees around
the greased alignment tool. This speci
fi
cation should be
checked after each 50 hours of operation or if the vessel
has run aground or hit a submerged object. Alignment
should be checked by a Regal dealer or marine profes-
sional since a special tool and procedure is required. Refer
to your engine manual or contact your authorized Regal
dealer for additional information.
ENGINE REMOVAL
In the event the engine requires major service and needs
to be removed, consult your Regal dealer. The dealer pos-
seses the knowledge,factory training and special tools
necessary to accomplish such a job. Do not undertake
this type of repair yourself.
