Prop Puller

[Otto Throttle]

I like to have the correct tools for the job, what would be the options/pros and cons on a prop puller. It is for a 1999 19'6" with a 4 bladed prop. Also possible suppliers would be great too.

Something like this will work fine: https://www.overtons.com/modperl/pro...uller&i=321428

Thank you!!!!!!

Actually, that c clamp puller will not work on a 4 blade. I just went through this myself. You will need a harmonic puller.
Wakemakers.com has them for around 40 bucks

Nonsense. I've pulled the prop off my old 99 Air Nautique (with a 4-blade prop) using this puller several times. And my buddies 2001 Sport and his neighbors 2002 Super Air, all with 4-blade props.

If you look at the link I posted, someone there also asked and it was confirmed this will work with a 4-blade.

How do you use a harmonic remover? videos for the C clamp remover looks a lot easier to use and straightforward. Can someone really confirm those work with the four bladed prop.?

I have used a 'C' style remover on both 210 and 230 4 blade props with no prob. Leave the nut on a few threads after loosen it and before you pop the prop lose to prevent the prop hitting the ground. I also put an old towel or moving pad down in case I drop it...

Yep.... C Clamp works on 4 blade!!

I have used both, and have both...There is no right or wrong or better or worse or easier...Just two ways of doing..

Agreed. Used mine on a 4 blade countless times.

Is the claw style better than Harmonic? Stands to reason claw would be better for a stubborn prop. I need one and wondering what is the best bang for my buck. Keep in mind I don’t foresee using it often (hopefully).

I don't really think one is any better than the other. They both do the same thing. I have one of the C-Clamp style pullers and never had any trouble getting a prop off with it.
