- If blackish grease is evenly ejected from the oil
seal periphery, it is normal.
- If non-discoloured grease is ejected from the
specific area (partially), the grease
amount is insufficient and the oil seal is worn.
Perform service work or replace the propeller
shaft with a new one.
- If the white cloudy grease is ejected, water has
been mixed in grease. Replace the
propeller shaft with a new one.
