[C320-list] How to use a Martec 2 Blade folding prop

[Chris Block ..._/) ....._/)]

I just got my Martec folding 2 blade prop back and I will be installing it next week.

The instructions claim that it only works in 2 positions (blade pin vertical).  They ask you to mark your shaft in the positions where the blade pin we be vertical. (I guess so that gravity does not open one side of the prop.)

This makes sense but I have 2 questions:

1. How does one get the prop shaft to lock in position?  put it in gear?  or special contraption/clamp/prop shaft brake?

2. Is there a quick way to get it back to this position without having to take apart the bed etc.
