The first step for removing the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly requires depressing and holding the brake pedal. Using a 6mm hexagon wrench unscrew the cross groove joint set bolts half a turn while placing protective cloth over the universal joint cover and avoid removing the bolts. Matchmarks should be placed on the rear propeller shaft together with the electromagnetic control coupling assembly before removing the 4 nuts with 4 washers. A brass bar with a hammer should be used to split the rear propeller shaft with center bearing shaft assembly before removing 4 bolts and 4 No. 2 center support bearing washers while avoiding excess force on the universal joint. You should extract the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly from the transfer while ensuring no more than 10 degrees of angle deviation for the universal joint throughout the removal procedure to prevent oil seal damage. The transfer requires the insertion of Special Service Tool: 09325-20010 to stop any oil leakage but users must avoid damaging the oil seal during installation.

Perform a joint angle check by turning the propeller shaft several times by hand and stabilizing the center support bearings.
