Propeller Replacement - Mercury T30 User Manual

Propeller Replacement

Performing service or maintenance without first disconnecting the
battery can cause product damage, personal injury, or death due to
fire, explosion, electrical shock, or unexpected motor starting. Always
disconnect the battery cables from the battery before maintaining,
servicing, installing, or removing motor components.
REMOVING THE PROPELLER
1. Disconnect the power cables from the battery.
2. While holding the propeller blade with one hand, use a propeller
wrench to remove the propeller nut.
IMPORTANT: Remove the propeller nut with a propeller wrench. Using
another tool may damage the propeller nut or shaft. If the propeller
cannot be removed easily, use a rubber mallet to lightly tap the back
side of the opposite blade. If the propeller cannot be removed, have
the propeller removed by an authorized dealer.
NOTE: If the propeller pin is bent, replace the propeller pin.
