Installation Guide
-
Remove the old cotter pin: Using pliers, straighten the two legs of the existing cotter pin and pull it out from the propeller shaft castle nut.
-
Unscrew the castle nut: Remove the propeller nut and any washers behind it. Keep them in a safe place.
-
Remove the propeller: Carefully slide the propeller off the propeller shaft.
-
Reinstall propeller and hardware: Slide the new or existing propeller back onto the shaft, followed by the washer(s) and the castle nut.
-
Tighten the nut: Tighten the castle nut to the manufacturer's recommended torque. Align a slot in the nut with the hole in the propeller shaft. Do not loosen the nut to align; tighten it slightly until the holes align.
-
Insert the new cotter pin: Slide the new cotter pin through the hole in the propeller shaft.
-
Secure the pin: Using pliers, bend the longer leg of the cotter pin up and over the end of the shaft, and bend the other leg down against the side of the nut to lock it in place.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this cotter pin fits my engine?
A: The best way is to check your original part number. This pin replaces Suzuki numbers (e.g., 09204-03001), Yamaha numbers (e.g., 91401-40025-00), and Johnson/Evinrude 5030087. You can also compare the dimensions (approx. 4mm x 25mm) with your old pin or consult your engine's service manual.
Q: Why is the pin made of 304 stainless steel?
A: 304 stainless steel offers an excellent balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and value, making it ideal for marine environments where parts are constantly exposed to water, especially saltwater. It is highly resistant to rust and wear.
Q: How often should I replace my propeller cotter pin?
A: It is highly recommended to use a new cotter pin every time you remove and reinstall your propeller. Reusing an old pin is unsafe, as bending the metal back and forth can weaken it, increasing the risk of failure and potential propeller loss.
