🔌 Function

Converts the drive's shaft power into thrust, its diameter and pitch setting how that power is matched to the boat.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration through the boat that gets worse with speed
• Engine reaching higher revs than it should without gaining speed, showing the blades are slipping
• Blade tips bent, chipped or curled after touching bottom
• Blade faces eroded or pockmarked from cavitation
• Hub spun, so the propeller turns on the shaft under load

🛠️ Service Notes

• Rotation must match the drive - this is a left hand wheel, so confirm the hand as well as the diameter and pitch
• Check the shaft splines, thrust washer and nut, and renew the hardware if worn
• A repitched or repaired propeller rarely balances as well as a new one, so have any repair checked for balance before fitting
• Installation hardware for the 3 and 4-blade propellers for the SX drive: split pin 3852056, propeller nut 3850984, spacer 3852350 and thrust washer 3852020.
• Precise balancing gives minimal vibrations, quiet and comfortable operation, and is essential for efficiency and for minimizing wear on the drivetrain.
