• Reassemble the strainer making sure that all fasteners are tight.
• Open the intake valve.
• Start the engine and inspect the strainer for leaks.
SHOULD AN ENGINE INTAKE, EXHAUST OR COOLING HOSE RUPTURE, TURN
OFF THE ENGINE AND CLOSE THE ENGINE WATER INTAKE VALVE IMMEDI-
ATELY. PROCEED, UNDER TOW IF NECESSARY, TO A SERVICE FACILITY FOR
APPROPRIATE REPAIRS. MAINTAIN A CLOSE VISUAL WATCH ON THE PROB-
LEM HOSE AND THE BILGE WATER LEVEL.
Inboard boats utilize an exhaust hose to relinquish cooling water. A periodic inspection of the
hose, mufflers and related parts should be made to ensure that leaks or heat deterioration have
not resulted.
Installation of “Fresh Water Cooling” provides adequate engine cooling without exposing the
internal engine cooling system to the harmful effects of surface water. This system is standard
with diesel and gasoline engines on the 3000 Express. The engine owner’s manual provides
additional information regarding the service and maintenance of this equipment.
1.5 Propellers
When the boats are shipped, the propellers are not
factory installed. Initial installation of the propellers
will be performed by the dealer during pre-delivery
service. Should it be necessary to change propellers,
always use an appropriate removal tool or “Prop
Puller.” Do not attempt removal using a hammer.
Damage to the propeller, propeller shaft, or trans-
mission can result.
A few simple steps will enable you to install a propeller. First, make sure that no burrs or rough
edges exist on the shaft, key, and both keyways. Try the key into the keyways. It must slide freely
into position without having side play. It might be necessary to file the key with a flat file to create
the correct tolerance.
To ensure the proper fit of your propeller, follow these procedures:
Step 1: Without the key installed, slip the propeller on the shaft by hand as far as it will go. Mark
the location at the front of the hub with a dry-marker and remove the propeller.
