IMPORTANT: Visually inspect for fuel leakage from the filter

while turning the ignition key to the run position, forcing fuel into

the filter.

Corrosion Control Anodes

The outboard has corrosion control anodes at different locations.

An anode helps protect the outboard against galvanic corrosion

by sacrificing its metal to be slowly eroded instead of the

outboard metals.

Each anode requires periodic inspection, especially in saltwater

which will accelerate the erosion. To maintain this corrosion

protection, always replace the anode before it is completely

eroded. Never paint or apply a protective coating on the anode,

as this will reduce effectiveness of the anode.

a - Two control anodes on splash plate

b - Ground wire

c - One control anode on the bottom of the pedestal

d - Two control anodes on the bottom of the power trim rams

e - Two control anodes on sides of gearcase
