This is for my Vetus thruster. First of all the shear pin is on the shaft behind the propeller. Talk the nut off the propeller to access it.

If you are trying to take the motor off there is a locking collar between the motor and the lower unit/transmission. Unlock it. Pop the motor off.

The lower unit/transmission attaches to the tube with a bracket with a few screws. Take these out if you to get the transmission.

Your unit may be different. Check your manuals!
