How tight or is their a specification of how many FT/LBS I should tighten the nut that holds the prop on? Once there's no play in the prop etc. |

The prop is thread on and every time you hit something it gets tighter so I put the prop on and tighten the nut snug and run for a while and the check the nut on the back and see if it needs to be tightening again. I do not know if there is a spec for how many ft/lbs. |

GT uses a hex shape for their props they are not threaded on. I don't know maybe you can call GT or wait for a response on here |

I just put it on and snug it down and I have never had an issue,its got a lock nut on it so there is no need to torque the piss out of it. |

I know they aren't threaded my question was about the nut. I think I got it answered... I'll call Hoyt if I have any questions but was making sure if I snug it up I'll be good... |

Tighten it up and hit the wrench a couple times with a hammer and your good to go. |
