PROPELLER SERVICE
Inspection
Carefully examine propeller and outboard for the
following:
•
Damaged blades and signs of propeller cavita-
tion (burned paint, etc.)
•
Spun or overheated inner hub
•
Worn or twisted splines and inadequate lubri-
cant
•
Damaged or missing converging ring (if applica-
ble)
•
Damage to outer hub area
•
Worn, missing, or incorrect thrust washer and
spacer
•
Correct size and style
•
Check for bent or damaged propeller shaft and
twisted splines.
Refer to Propeller Hardware Installation on
p. 290.
Propeller Selection
Water testing with various propeller designs and
sizes is the best method of propeller selection.
The correct propeller, under normal load condi-
tions, will allow the engine to run near the mid-
point of the RPM operating range at full throttle.
Refer to
SERVICE SPECIFICATIONS AB MOD-
ELS on p. 12.
If the propeller blades have too
much pitch, the engine will operate below its
normal range at full throttle. Power will be lost,
and powerhead damage could occur. If the
propeller blades have too little pitch, the
engine will operate above its normal range and
damage from overspeeding could occur.

When servicing the propeller, always shift
the outboard to NEUTRAL, turn the key
switch OFF, and disconnect the battery
positive (+) cable so the outboard cannot
be started accidentally.

Selection of the wrong propeller could
reduce engine service life, affect boat per-
formance, or cause serious damage to the
