Propellers A fixed-pitch wooden propeller that has been properly installed and the attachment bolts properly torqued exceeds the out-of-track allowance by 1/16 inch. The excessive out-of-track condition may be corrected by a. slightly overtightening the attachment bolts adjacent to the most forward blade. b. discarding the propeller since out-of-track conditions cannot be corrected. c. placing shims between the inner flange and the propeller.
