Shaft Assembly

Shafts are selected for your TAYANA48-DECK SALON. This
assembly makes it possible for the shaft to penetrate the hull
bottom without allowing water to enter around the joint. The
shaft coupling is the connecting point between the engine and
the shaft assembly.
TAYANA48-DECK SALON is fitted with flexible coupling to
ensure very smooth and quiet propulsion.
For details of shaft system, please refer to attach DWG. At
appendices.
Although the shaft is properly aligned and couple at the factory,
Propeller shaft alignment must be again check by your dealer or
qualified mechanic during pre-delivery service. Periodic checks
of shaft alignment should be made especially if noise or vibration
occurs.
CAUTION!
Misalignment can cause damage to shaft bearing, shaft,
struts and the engine transmission.
