Predelivery Preparation
Disconnecting the Propeller Shaft Coupling
Failure to disconnect the coupling for shipment could result in damage to transmission
and propeller shaft.
On applications with a rigid propeller shaft coupling, the coupling must be disconnected
from the transmission flange before boat is removed from the water for shipment. Coupling
should not be reconnected until the boat is in the water at its final destination and the engine
alignment has be rechecked. Some misalignment may occur during transit, particularly on
large boats.
