WATER PROTECTION DIAGRAM
NOTE:
It is important to thoroughly lubricate all
mating surfaces with grease suitable for
marine applications.
Corrosion protection should be applied to
the external surfaces of the motor,
gearbox and adaptor and also in any
areas that water may lie.
Recommended products for anti
corrosion protection are Techtyl under
body anti corrosion film and Denso grease
tape.
If it is necessary to install the motor
below the chain access hole then a
chain pipe extension is required.
