Routine Service
Gearcase Removal and Installation
2
Slide the gearcase into place, making sure:
•
Driveshaft engages the crankshaft.
•
Water tube enters the water pump.
•
Lower inner exhaust housing installs correctly.
•
Shift rod does not turn and is positioned prop-
erly in the shift rod lever below the crankcase.
Some outboard models include hollow alignment
pins between the exhaust housing and gearcase.
If outboard is not equipped with alignment pins,
use Gearcase Alignment Kit, P/N 5007231, to
accurately align gearcase housing to exhaust
housing. Position alignment bolts (2) as indicated.
Replace alignment bolts with mounting screws
after all other gearcase mounting screws are
installed.
IMPORTANT:
New gearcase screws are treated
with a thread-locking material. Apply
Triple-Guard
grease to threads to ensure that the correct clamp-
ing force is achieved when tightening—If a previ-
ously installed screw is re-used, use a wire brush
to remove any old thread-locking material or corro-
sion and lubricate threads with
Triple-Guard
grease.
Install screws and washers and tighten to a torque
of:
•
3/8 in.
screws – 26 to 28 ft. lbs. (35 to 38 N·m)
•
7/16 in.
screws – 45 to 50 ft. lbs. (61 to 68 N·m)
Apply
Triple-Guard
grease to threads of the trim
tab screw. Install gasket on “M2”-type gearcases.
Install and align the trim tab with the index marks
noted prior to disassembly. Tighten the trim tab
screw to a torque of 35 to 40 ft. lbs. (47 to 54
N·m). For adjustment, refer to
