WARNING 3:
(2) Routine propeller engine shutdown will engage the start
lock units, preventing the propeller from feathering. To
permit access to the of the spinner mounting bolts, the
start locks should remain engaged during the removal of
the propeller.
(3) Remove the safety wire on the propeller mounting bolts.
WARNING:
(4) Support the propeller assembly with a sling.
NOTE 1: To permit rotation of the propeller for ease of
bolt removal, supporting the propeller with a
sling may be delayed until all but two mounting
bolts and washers have been removed.
NOTE 2: If the propeller will be reinstalled, and it
has been dynamically balanced, make
an identifying mark (with a felt-tipped pen
only) on the propeller hub and a matching
mark on the engine flange to make sure of
proper positioning of the propeller during
reinstallation. This will prevent dynamic
imbalance.
