REMOVAL--PROPELLER SHAFT
WARNING
Use two crewmembers to lift heavy loads. Heavy loads can crush. Do not allow any
body parts to come under the load or between the load and a stationary object. Failure
to comply can result in serious injury or death.
1.
Remove the bolts (7) and nuts (8) from the shaft coupling (9).
2.
Slide the propeller shaft (2) down through the stern tube (10) until enough clearance exists between the shaft
coupling (9) and the marine transmission coupling to permit the removal of the shaft coupling from the propeller shaft.
3.
Remove the cotter pin (11), hex nut (12), and washer (13) from the end of the propeller shaft (2).
! CAUTION
Do not use a hammer on the threaded ends of the propeller shaft or on the mating
surfaces of the shaft coupling when removing the shaft coupling from the propeller
shaft. Use the hammer only on that portion of the shaft coupling that attaches to the
propeller shaft. Failure to comply with this caution can result in equipment damage.
4.
Jar the shaft coupling (9) loose from the propeller shaft (2) with a heavy hammer. Remove the shaft coupling and the
key (14) from the propeller shaft.
5.
Using two crewmembers, pull the propeller shaft (2) out through the stern tube (10) and strut (15).
