3. When the castle nut is tight, look for the cotter pin hole and insert the
stainless steel cotter pin through the shaft. (see illustration). With a light tap,
drive the cotter pin down through the slot and hole so that its rounded top rests
snugly against the hole. Bend the loose ends of the cotter pin back against the
shaft with a pair of pliers and tap them lightly to secure.
To remove propeller, remove the cotter pin. Loosen the castle nut to the end of
shaft. Do not completely remove castle nut. Use a propeller puller available
at most marine supply stores to remove the propeller. Use a new cotter pin
when you replace the prop (see illustration).
A FINAL CAUTIONARY NOTE: BE CAREFUL HANDLING YOUR
PROPELLER. A SHARP PROPELLER CAN CAUSE A PAINFUL CUT!!
