Photos from my last prop adjustment.

As found, after a bit of cleaning, no zinc found on end.

After cleaning, now removing end cap.

Lots of stripped heads so ordered kit from PYI.

End cap removed, blades still in place.

Grease cleaned off, note numbers on hub for matched assembly.

This is the feathered position blades should be in when taken apart.

As found 1st reading is B, keep prop taped in place, moving will change reading.

Split hub, one head had to be drilled off, stud still in place.

Showing letters stamped on parts, visable after disassembly and cleaning.

2nd reading, in this case N

My instructions only mentioned groove, which cannot be seen until part removed.

Secure machine screws after tightening.

Completed, this is the position prop should be in when disassembling. Blades feathered.
