We recommend the following maintenance items to help keep your sterndrive corrosion‑free:
•
Maintain a complete paint covering on the sterndrive.
•
Check the finish regularly. Prime and paint nicks and scratches using Mercury enamel paint and touch up paint. Use only tin–
based anti–fouling paint or its equivalent on or near aluminum surfaces below the waterline.
•
If bare metal is showing, apply 2 coats paint.

•
Inspect the sacrificial trim tab or anode plate if equipped, at regular intervals and replace it before it is half gone. If a stainless
steel propeller is installed, additional anodes or a MerCathode System will be required.
•
Inspect the propeller shaft for fishing line, which can cause corrosion on a stainless steel shaft.
•
Remove the propeller at least every 60 days and lubricate the propeller shaft.
•
Do not use lubricants containing graphite on or near the aluminum in saltwater.
•
Do not paint trim tabs or the mounting surface.
Flushing the Power Package—Alpha
Your boat comes equipped with through the sterndrive water pickups. See

procedure. Consult your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer for further explanation.
IMPORTANT: Alpha engines with the sterndrive water inlet blocked off at the gimbal housing, and using a through the hull water
