    Wow no cotterpin or reverse threads? Yeah I'd check it often as well, soon as I hit the lotto🤣👍🎣

      It's good to change the cotter pin every so often too. I learned the hard way & lost a stainless steel prop, because my cotter pin gave way, through stress, habitual reuse (bad idea, btw), or corrosion. Lucky, that I was within trolling motor distance to my dock, so I wasn't stranded. Hopefully, they'll soon drop the lake level to do maintenance on the dam, so that maybe, I can recover it.

    Use Mercury 2-4-C grease on the splines after cleaning the old grease off....also check that you dont have any wobble by spinning the prop or you could have a bent prop shaft that can compromise your lower unit over time..

    No cotter pin? No nut locker?
    Yep. I'd be checking every 15 minutes...

    I saw a yamaha dealer on here use the plastic wrench and a torque wrench so you dont really need a plastic wrench right? thanks for sharing!

    Manufacturers seem to really like larger motors...you know, they give them big props.

      I’ve thrown 3 in 1 year and all were warranty covered… That’s very odd… All 3 were 4 blade furys

    Using a torque wrench to loosen a nut gave me cancer. Even if it was already loose for demo purposes.

      He probably doesn't know what a regular ratchet is. All he has or knows is a torque wrench. That long handle makes it easier.

    You don’t have a pin in the prop but?

    Typically you wouldn't use a calibrated instrument like a torque wrench to break torque.
