 Shaft Assembly 

Shafts are selected for your TAYANA48-DECK SALON. This 

assembly makes it possible for the shaft to penetrate the hull 

bottom without allowing water to enter around the joint.  The 

shaft coupling is the connecting point between the engine and 

the shaft assembly. 

TAYANA48-DECK SALON is fitted with flexible coupling to 

ensure very smooth and quiet propulsion. 

For details of shaft system, please refer to attach DWG.  At 

appendices. 

Although the shaft is properly aligned and couple at the factory, 

Propeller shaft alignment must be again check by your dealer or 

qualified mechanic during pre-delivery service. Periodic checks 

of shaft alignment should be made especially if noise or vibration 

occurs. 

CAUTION!

Misalignment can cause damage to shaft bearing, shaft, 

struts and the engine transmission.
