Propeller shaft seal. Reverse gear
If the boat has a Volvo Penta shaft the shaft seal
must be vented and lubricated directly after launching.
Vent the bushing by pressing it together while press-
ing down on the shaft until water appears. Then press
in approx. 1 cc water repellent grease into the seal.
IMPORTANT! The seal must be replaced every
500 running hours or every 5th year.
Rubber seal. S-drive
Check the rubber seal between the drive and the hull
regularly for cracks and wear.
WARNING! The seal must be changed every
seven years or earlier if it is defective. This work
should be carried out by an authorized workshop.
Maintenance: S drive and reverse gear
