CONDITION 1

When space between propeller and strut is too narrow to mount cutter:

OPTION 1: Removal of a ring from strut boss the width necessary to allow enough space for mounting cutter, including any end play. Procedure is as follows:

a) Scribe a ring around strut allowing space for cutter and end play (Photos #15, #16 and #17).

b) Cut strut through bearings stopping at rubber; using a knife, cut through rubber and remove ring. Make a side cut before completing the cut when the propeller has not been removed (Photo #18).

c) Remove the ring, and follow installation instructions..

OPTION 2: Install SPURS® Spacer between transmission and shaft flange. A 1" spacer will lengthen shaft allowing an additional 1" for cutter to be installed. (Photo #19).

SPURS® Spacers are available through Spurs Marine:
Contact us for sizing. We will need the Make and Model # of your transmission.
SPURS" Spacers are solid steel, machined parallel within .001 and are electroless nickel plated.

CONDITION 2

Too much space between propeller and strut or stern tube:
(Photo #20). Contact manufacturer for special instructions. When a vessel with an unusual arrangement is encountered, send drawings for factory installation assistance. A zinc collar between propeller and cutter will act as a filler in many cases.
