(4) INSTALLATION

The following instructions are a general guide. Defer to propeller manufacturers detailed
instructions as required.
(a) Thoroughly clean the surfaces of the crankshaft flange and pilot stub, the
rear/mounting face of the propeller, and the pilot bore. Carefully examine each
surface and especially examine the end of the crankshaft pilot stub. Even minor
nicks or burrs must be smoothed.
(b) MAKE SURE the propeller attaching bolts and the threads in the drive bushings
or retaining nuts are clean and dry.
(c) Turn ignition switch to OFF, and ensure that all circuit breakers are pulled.
(d) Place the spinner backing plate on the crankshaft flange ensuring the prop blade
orientation is correct.
(e) Position the propeller in the correct orientation. Tighten the bolts snug.
(f) BE SURE the spinner backing plate is positioned properly on the flange bushings
before you torque the bolts.
(g) Apply torque in several increments, working diagonally across the bolt circle until
reaching proper torque.
(h) Check to make sure the propeller track is within 1/8-inch.
(i) Install 0.041-inch diameter stainless steel safety wire in the propeller bolt heads
locking bolt heads together in a tightening moment. It is recommended that bolts
be wired in pairs, twisting the wire between the bolt heads.
