ANTICORROSION ANODES
Your motor is equipped with one or more anodes
that protect it from galvanic corrosion. Refer to
Fea-
tures for anode location. Disintegration of the an-
ode is normal and indicates it is working. Check
each anode periodically. Replace anodes smaller
than 2/3 their original size. See your Dealer for re-
placements.
1. Anticorrosion anodes
Galvanic corrosion destroys underwater metal
parts and can occur in fresh or salt water; however,
salt, brackish and polluted waters will accelerate
corrosion.
Metal-based antifouling paint on the boat or motor
and the use of improperly installed shore power in
the area of your moored boat will also accelerate
corrosion.
IMPORTANT: NEVER paint the anode, its fasten-
ers, or its mounting surface. Painting will reduce its
corrosion protection.
