Testing Procedure – Continuity
Connect ohmmeter leads between engine ground
and anode surface.
The meter should show little or no resistance. If
resistance is high, check the following:
•
Remove the anode and clean the area where
the anode is installed
•
Clean the mounting screws
•
Install the anode and test again.
Metallic Component Protection
Protect metal components on outboards from cor-
rosion. Use the following products to minimize
corrosion:
•
Anti-Corrosion Spray provides a heavy, waxy
coating to protect components
•
“6 in 1” Multi-Purpose Lubricant provides a thin
film of anti-corrosion protection.
Exterior Finishes
Maintain the outboard’s exterior finish to prevent
corrosion and reduce oxidation:
•
Use automotive wax to protect the outboard’s
exterior finish from oxidation
•
Clean regularly using clean water and mild
detergent soap
•
Touch-up damage to painted surfaces promptly.
•
Protect moving components with appropriate
lubricants.
Gearcase Removal and
Installation
Gearcase Removal
Remove pin and washer from shift rod lever to
release the lower shift rod.
Note where the index mark on the gearcase aligns
with the index number of the adjustable trim tab so
the trim tab can be installed in the same position.
Remove the trim tab retaining screw and trim tab
from the gearcase.
