Removing parts:

Procedure:

  1. Push the shear pin out of the shaft.
  2. If the shear pin is bent — for example after a sudden propeller stop — it cannot simply be pushed out. In this case, cut the shear pin with a die grinder fitted with a cutting disc instead of forcing it out.
  3. Remove the washer from the shaft.

CAUTION

When cutting a bent shear pin, take great care to protect the shaft. Do not let the cutting disc contact or damage the shaft surface.
