Corrosion Control Anode
Your outboard has a corrosion control anode installed to the gear case. An anode helps
protect the outboard against galvanic corrosion by sacrificing its metal to be slowly eroded
instead of the outboard metals.
The anode requires periodic inspection especially in salt water which will accelerate the
erosion. To maintain this corrosion protection, always replace the anode before it is com-
pletely eroded. Never paint or apply a protective coating on the anode as this will reduce
effectiveness of the anode.
