Looking for the correct sequence of parts for a DP-C duoprop. This is the model with the castellated forward prop nut. Thrust washers, spacers, line cutters, torgue, etc, what are the correct parts and sequence ... ?
 
Large FWD prop spacer first. It may or may not include the line cutter.
Make sure that it fits into the prop hub recessed area.
Install FWD propeller and prop nut.

Small AFT prop spacer next. Again, it may or may not include the line cutter.
Make sure that it fits into the prop hub recessed area.
Install AFT propeller and spinner.
Do not over-tighten the spinner's center keeper bolt.

Good deal, Ricardo. How about torque on the forward prop nut, set number, snug?
 
I have never actually applied a torque value on either of them.
Snug is good.

If you have the locking tab for the FWD prop nut, use the tangs.
Use the center locking bolt on the AFT prop spinner.
