Anode Replacement

SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR

ANODE
(each side)

ANODE
(stern bracket)

Painting or coating the anodes will
def eat their purpose and will lead to
rust and corrosion damage to the
outboard motor. The anodes must be
exposed to the water in order to
protect the outboard motor.

The anodes are located on each side
of the gearcase. They are made of a
sacrificial material that helps to
protect the outboard motor from
corrosion.

Replace the anodes when they have
been reduced to about half their
original size, or if they are crumbling.
