1. Try the lower-unit in the tunnel (remove the zinc anode) first by using the gasket inside the tunnel. Try on the propeller to make sure
it is centred in the tunnel and turn freely with the same clearance from each blade to the tunnel (Fig. 1).
2. Apply a thin layer of sealant on both sides of the gasket (5) and place it carefully on the gearhouse, making sure no sealant gets
into the oil holes or bolt holes on the gearhouse (Fig 1).
3. Push the gearhouse through the main hole in the tunnel and push the gearhouse and motor-bracket gently together.
4. Screw the lower unit and the motor bracket together with the two provided bolts. Tighten with 17 Nm / 12,4 lb/ft (Fig. 2).
