Propeller Installation
Running an engine using an improperly balanced propeller can lead to excessive vibration which will cause excessive stress and wear on both the engine and the airframe. Overall performance will also be reduced. Balance the propeller using the recommended method stated by the propeller manufacturer. Several products are available to properly balance propellers. Ask your local retailer for more information about these items. Using a 5.5 mm (7/32”) drill bit, drill out the hole in the propeller hub to fit the back of the aluminium spinner cone. Push the spinner cone onto the front side of the propeller. Slide the propeller bolt through the spinner cone and propeller; then thread the bolt into the front of the engine. Completely tighten the prop bolt to secure the propeller in place. When tightening the prop bolt, use the proper size open end wrench, adjustable wrench or flat blade screwdriver. Do not use pliers.
