SUBJECT: Replacement Self-threading Screw for Nameplates and Emblems.
For Use on: Nameplates - All Engines
Emblems - All Remote Control Boxes
Part No. 308873 SCREW is recommended for use when transferring a nameplate or emblem
from a part that has failed or broke to the replacement part. It can also be used in
the event the original drivescrew works loose or is lost.
All thats required to install #308873 SCREW is a
#43 drill (.089"). Use the #43 drill to ream the
existing hole to 3/16" minimum depth and turn
#308873 self-threading screw in place with a
screwdriver (figures 1 and 2).
Since the head of this self threading screw is
slightly different than that of the original drive-
screw, we suggest replacing all the emblem screws on
a remote control housing even though only one
drivescrew may have fallen out - for appearance sake.
Original drivescrews are easily removed by gripping
the screw head with a plier and twisting it out
counter clockwise.
Part No. 308873 SCREW has a larger maximum thread
diameter than the drivescrew it replaces and should
therefore offer ample security even though the orig-
inal hole was slightly oversized during drivescrew
removal.
Those desiring a supply of #308873 should order from
their Parts Distributor. Suggested list price is
$.10 and your standard parts discount applies.
