PROPELLER SHAFT SEALS –
INBOARD MODELS
The propeller shaft extends through a shaft seal which is
a watertight fitting. Check the shaft seal every month for
leakage; contact your Carver Dealer if signs of leakage
are found.
Keep out of the engine room while one or
both engines are operating. The engine room
contains moving, hot machinery. Check that the
engines are OFF before inspecting the propeller
shaft seals.
WARNING
!
PROPELLERS
Inspect the props often. Keep a swim mask in the yacht
to inspect the props while swimming. Out-of-balance or
damaged props can diminish the yacht’s performance by
reducing speed, causing steering problems, and creating
vibrations. Vibrations can lead to drive train damage.
Have the propellers balanced by an established propeller
repair shop at least once a year. Repair or replace
damaged props.
Always wear gloves when handling the
propeller. The propeller blades are sharp.
WARNING
!
TIP
Consider purchasing and carrying a spare set of props
onboard. Many marine dealers do not carry a full
inventory of replacement propellers . A spare set allows
your vacation or cruise to continue in the event that the
primary set of props are damaged.
PROPELLER INSTALLATION –
INBOARD MODELS
1 ]
Push the propeller snugly onto the shaft taper
without the key in either keyway (propeller or shaft).
2 ]
Make sure the propeller is snug and there is no side-
to-side movement by gently moving the propeller
back and forth.
3 ]
Make a line on the shaft with a non-graphite marker
at the forward end of the propeller where it stops up
against the shaft taper.
4 ]
Remove the propeller.
5 ]
Put the key into the keyway on the shaft taper with
radiused or chamfered corners (down) in the shaft
keyway (if the propeller shaft keyway has radiused
corners).
6 ]
Put the propeller onto the shaft taper.
7 ]
Check to see that the propeller moves back to the
forward line made in Step 3. If it does, skip down to
Step 8. If it does not, perform the following:
a ]
Remove the propeller from the shaft.
b ]
Place a file on a flat surface area or work bench.
c ]
Run the opposite end of the chamfered key
back and forth over the file (to remove any burs)
with a downward pressure on the key until the
side being filed is clean.
d ]
Install the cleaned key in the shaft keyway with
the chamfered corner side down in the shaft
(the cleaned, filed side up in the keyway).
e ]
Replace the propeller on the shaft and fit snugly
on the taper. Check to see if it reaches the line
made in Step 3. If it does not, line up and then
repeat Steps 7a through 7e.
OTEE:
N
A vice can be used to hold the key for
filing, but take care not to tighten too
much. Overtightening will cause burrs and
irregularities on the key.
