Anode Replacement
ANODE
(stern bracket)
The anodes are located on each side
of the gear case and on the stern
bracket. 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 one third their
original size, or if they are crumbling.
ANODE
(each side)
Painting or coating the anodes will
defeat 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.
