Drive dog installed.
Flat spot for drive dog.
Measuring flex shaft for cutting.
Flex Shaft
Slip your drive dog onto the flex shaft, then
the prop. Adjust the drive dog so that you
have about ½ inch of threads showing past
the prop.
Tighten the drive dog set screw.
Make a mark on the shaft against the drive
dog. Remove the drive dog and file or grind
a flat spot for the drive dog set screw.
The flat spot should be about 3/32 inch
deep. Assemble the drive dog with the set
screw. Use thread locker.
Slip the cable into the strut and tube,
being absolutely certain that the cable is
all the way into the collet.
Measure the distance from the back of the
strut to the front of the drive dog. Subtract
3/8 inch from this measurement.
This is the amount to cut off the front of
the cable to leave a 3/8 inch drive dog to
strut gap.
As an example, if the distance from the
strut to drive dog is 3 inch, you would cut
2-5/8 inches off the cable.
This gap is needed because the cable will
“wind up” and get shorter when power is
applied.
Deburr and slightly chamfer or round the
end of the cable for easier insertion.
