Page 3: Installing The Propeller
5. Apply locking glue (Loctite 243) to the shaft and nut threads and install the GORI supplied nut (5) and tighten/torque (see above torque settings) the nut. To tighten the nut to the specified torque for your saildrive model, move the shift lever to Ahead and hold the crankshaft V-Pulley clamp nut with a wrench to stop the propeller shaft from rotating. - Page 4 11. Check that the blades will move freely from open to closed. Your Gori is water lubricated. At hauling, after cleaning, & before storage, put a light smear of a waterproof grease over the blade teeth, blade cheeks and hub fork housing contact points. This will allow you to check blade operation and stop oxidization of the metal when out of the water.

Page 6: Removing The Blades From The Blade Housing
Apply a “lite” smearing of a lithium based waterproof grease to all blade, hub fork & gear teeth contact surfaces at haul out to stop oxidizing & just prior to launch.

Page 7: Operating Instructions
When sailing, the blades will fold and the shaft will not spin, giving you less drag and more speed. When starting to sail, to fold the Gori blades immediately, go into reverse for a brief second, then back to neutral. This stops the shaft immediately and the blades will fold and align with least resistance. Turn off the engine. -
Page 8: Cleaning And Maintenance
Do Not Use regular thread locking glue not intended for use underwater – attempts to apply it under water will ultimately fail/wash off Bondchem WT03 Thread Locker liquid glue, supplied by Gori, and Loctite Blue 242 liquid (or Red) cannot be used under water - they cure anaerobically and must be applied to a clean dry surface as per their instructions.
