PROPELLER SELECTION
AND INSTALLATION
PROPELLER SELECTION
It is essential to use a propeller on your out-
board motor that is properly matched to your
boat's operating characteristics. The speed of
the engine when you operate your boat at full
throttle depends on the propeller you use.
Excessive engine speed can seriously damage
the motor, while low engine speed at full throttle
will adversely affect performance. Your operat-
ing load will also affect propeller selection.
Smaller loads generally require larger-pitch pro-
pellers; larger loads generally require smaller-
pitch propellers. Your authorized Suzuki Marine
Dealer will assist you in selecting a suitable pro-
peller for your boat.
NOTICE
Installing a propeller with either too much or
too little pitch will cause incorrect maximum
engine speed, which may result in severe
damage to the motor.
Ask your authorized Suzuki marine dealer to
assist you in selecting a suitable propeller for
your boat.
You can determine if your propeller is appropri-
ate for use with your boat by using a tachome-
ter to measure engine speed when operating
your boat at full throttle, under minimum load
conditions. If you are using an appropriate pro-
peller, the engine speed will be within the fol-
lowing range:
DF70A
DF80A
Full throttle
operating
range
DF90A
DF100B
If the engine speed is not within this range, con-
sult your authorized Suzuki Marine Dealer to
determine which propeller size is best for you.
