Re: Acme Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
My only reservation about the harmonic is if I am in the water changing the prop. I deport a spare prop and conventional puller. If cruising I can e'er become to very shallow water and pull the prop if I have to. No sure if the harmonic volition piece of work when submerged in h2o.

Re: Acme Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
I concord with Mike. The Harmonic pullers piece of work groovy on trailerable boats that are primarily stored on the trailer. They work great when yous are propping a boat, installing a prop endeavour it have it off put another on...... To use a Harmonic puller for removing a prop that was installed correctly ( prop nut torqued to shaft diameter specifications seating the prop on the shaft taper properly) and removing a prop that has been on the shaft of a gunkhole left in the h2o for a season or two. Good luck, I have seen boaters and marine repair facilities using the Harmonic method, beating the end of the shaft and increasing the size of the hammer with sometimes no results and possibly damage to the thrust begetting in the transmission. A conventional puller normally prevails. The Harmonic and conventional pullers both piece of work. They're easy to brand and even easier to purchase. The pullers that I looked at to purchase required alterations at the area between the Prop and shaft log/strut at that place is less so an inch of space. I fabricated this puller. It would not be user friendly in the water but doable in an emergency.

Re: Top Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
Received HPP. So far no joy. Rudder prevents square hit on puller. Dubiety very much information technology would work in h2o. Also concerned about possible harm to other parts per previous post
At this point conventional puller is looking good except for cost I'thou seeing close to $400.00. Whatever less expensive off the shelf?
The custom built looks really artistic. Bold u cut terminate pieces from plywood with hole saw? Saber saw for cutout?
To clarify I trailer.

Re: Acme Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
The conventional pullers are not cheap. I did selection 1 upwards for around $200, information technology was on line and also sold at West Marine. When they were honoring match any price they sold it to me for the $200 fifty-fifty though they were selling it for $400. Shortly after that they inverse their policy to matching whatever brick and mortar within 50 miles. I guess I pushed them over the brink.

The puller plates are 3/4 " thick carbon steel then coated with Galvanized coating . The plate that goes in front of the prop had to be milled to five/8 inch for clearance. The threaded rods are threaded into the plate . The plate backside the prop is tapped to except a 1" bolt . ( Pressings bolt )This eliminates the demand to apply of the hammer. In that location is another post on Tugnuts 29 Ranger prop puller the puller plates where made out of aluminum. Prissy ready up and Aluminum is easier to piece of work with.

The custom built looks really creative. Assuming u cutting end pieces from plywood with hole saw? Saber saw for cutout?

Re: Top Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
thanks for all suggestions. Am without metal working experience and tools. But the aluminum version looks similar it can be done with a cutoff blade. circumvolve cutter, drill printing and hacksaw. Plan to brand a epitome out of plywood to confirm dimensions.
FYI - Acme propellers recommends torqueing the nut to 35 ft/lbs.

Re: Acme Harmonic Prop Puller 4 R27
Hey all. I replaced the prop on my R-27 using a gear puller which I was able to hire from the local auto supply place, but later bought one to keep on board. It worked and, as those who accept pulled props know, information technology is mildly terrifying to torque something that much until it loudly goes "sproing" (gently crush the prop with a rubber hammer, which helps). And you will detect that some gear pullers work and others won't due to their configuration. I left mine with the guy who bought my 27 so I can't become observe it.
This is a much cheaper option if you want to try it.
