Installation sequence for propeller on Suzuki DF50

Post by live2shift »

What is the sequence for installation for installing a stock prop onto the Suzuki DF50.

Can someone please confirm it is as follows to install a prop onto a bare shaft:

Prop
Large spacer (which way down?)
SS washer
Castle Nut
Cotter Pin

Make SURE there's a large splined thrust washer on the splined shaft before you install the prop. Hopefully, this drawing of the DF50 will help:

Grease the splined shaft the thrust washers slide on or they can get stuck on it.
