  • DF2.5 2015 - propeller nut?

    Q: How to remove this nut?

    See part #15:
    Fig. 407 - Gear Case - Suzuki DF 2.5 Parts Listings - S/N 00252F-510001 to 00252F-51XXXX

    Since 2013 there is a plastic nut on the end of the shaft, with a pin through the nut. The nut looks like screwed onto the shaft, but with all my force - using wrench - I can't make it move. Tried both clockwise and counterclockwise - nothing. Is there any secret to this?

    there should be no magic to this
    remove the cotter pin
    maybe spray with some penetrating oil and let it sit for a while
    being a plastic as you describe, I would find a replacement before taking off the old one
    there could be just some corrision in there
    should be a standard left hand turn to remove

      Thanks. Conquered it. I was afraid to damage this $30 piece of plastic by applying too much force. Gentle tapping with a mallet, then wrench again, and off it went. Darn Thais left some burr on it, maybe pressed it onto the shaft too hard. No longer "real Japanese", you know...
