3. Pull the propeller from the motor shaft.
4. Pull cylinder pin from the motor shaft and remove the disk spring from
the motor shaft.

uneven.

housing. Insert the new cylinder pin centrally to the motor shaft.
7. Place the propeller onto the motor shaft and turn the propeller so that
the cylinder pin is aligned with the groove in the propeller.
