2.9-1 Propeller Shaft Alignment
Propeller shaft alignment is extremely important to the performance of your diesel
auxiliary. Every Intrepid Yacht has its engine aligned on the bed before it leaves
the factory. The engine may shift on its bed, however, during transport or
launching. As part of the commissioning procedure, your dealer must recheck
this alignment after the boat has been launched and prior to starting the engine.
Alignment must also be checked and adjusted every year or whenever vibration
seems to be a problem. Proper alignment will not eliminate all vibration but it is
an important factor in reducing it.
Place the propeller shaft flange and the reverse gear flange together so that the
guide locates properly. With the flanges pressed against each other, check the
parallelism with a .002” feeler gauge. The gauge must not enter between the
flanges at any point. Turn the flanges through 360 checking constantly with the
feeler gauge. Be certain that the flanges are pressed firmly against each other
throughout the whole procedure. If there is a gap of more than .002” between the
flanges at any point, the engine must be repositioned on the mounts.
Care must be taken when reassembling the coupling to see that the key is properly
inserted and that the set screws are wired in place.
