Power trim fluid is used in hydraulic rams that
maneuver the outboard unit. Power trim fluid
should be checked regularly in the reservoir which
is located in the bilge.
Propeller System
Regal has carefully tested and chosen the
propellers to give your outboard boat the best
possible performance based on the engines and
propulsion package you choose. We have allowed
for the additional weight in equipment that might
be added to the boat. It is recommended to carry
a spare set of propellers and hand tools onboard
in order to handle emergency propeller changes.
Each Yamaha propeller displays the following
information:
1. Propeller pitch shown by inches.
2. Propeller type (L for left or R for right).
3. Propeller diameter in inches.
Your Regal features triple outboards. The port
engine rotates counterclockwise and uses a left
hand propeller. The center & starboard engine
rotate clockwise (standard) and use a right hand
propeller. Read and understand the label below.
AVOID A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT!
NEVER USE A STANDARD PROPELLER
ON A COUNTER ROTATION ENGINE, OR A
COUNTER ROTATION PROPELLER ON A
STANDARD ENGINE. THE VESSEL COULD
GO IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION EXPECTED
FOR EXAMPLE;
(REVERSE INSTEAD OF FORWARD)
WARNING
Refer to the outboard manual for procedures, as
the application is unique to the manufacturer. Call
a marine professional or your Regal dealer to order
a spare propeller set.
Propeller Checklist
At least twice a year, check the propeller for:
• Loose, missing, or corroded hardware.
• Nicks, dings, or missing propeller material
• Bent propeller blades.
• Objects wrapped around the prop (fish line)
• Decomposing propeller blades (electrolysis
symptom).
• If equipped, check the propeller rubber hub for
slippage
Contact a propeller shop or your closest Regal
dealer if any of the above symptoms exist. They
have purchased special equipment to refurbish
both stainless steel and aluminum propellers.
