TOOLS AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:

• Box End Wrench

the one pictured.

1. Disconnect the motor from all sources of power prior to changing the propeller.

2. Hold the propeller and loosen the prop nut with pliers or a wrench.

3. Remove the prop nut and washer. If the drive pin is sheared or broken, you will need to hold the shaft stationary with a blade

4. Turn the old prop to horizontal (as illustrated) and pull it straight off . If drive pin falls out, push it back in.

5. Align the new propeller with the drive pin.

6. Install the prop washer and prop nut.

7. Tighten the prop nut 1/4 turn past snug [25-35 inch lbs.] Do not over tighten as this can damage the prop.

• Verify the prop nut is secure each time the motor is used.

• To prevent accidental damage during transportation or storage, disconnect the battery whenever the motor is off of the water.

For prolonged storage, lightly coat all metal parts with an aqueous based silicone spray.

• For maximum battery life recharge the battery(s) as soon as possible after use. For maximum motor performance restore

battery to full charge prior to use.

• Keep battery terminals clean with fi ne sandpaper or emery cloth.

• The propeller is designed to provide weed free operation with very high effi ciency. To maintain this top performance, the

leading edge of the blades must be kept smooth. If they are rough or nicked from use, restore to smooth by sanding with fi ne

sandpaper.
