Propeller Shaft CautionS6RW0D3400001
CAUTION!
• All propeller shaft fasteners are an important attaching part in that it could affect the performance of
vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one
of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified
during reassembly to assure proper retention of this part.
• Never attempt to heat, quench or straighten any propeller shaft part. Replace it with a new part, or
damage to the part may result.
