1. Remove the cotter pin from the propeller shaft and discard.

A propeller can be very sharp. Be careful when you
handle it. Wear a pair of protective gloves when
handling any propeller.
Remove your key from the ignition and remove the
emergency stop switch clip from the switch to prevent
accidental starting of the engine.
DO NOT reuse the nylon locknut or the cotter pin.
DO NOT use a damaged propeller. A damaged
propeller can damage your engine and boat.
