Corrosion Protection

Your motor / drive unit has a sacrificial anode made of zinc to mitigate the effects of corrosion
causing, electrolysis . Maintain this anode in accordance with the maintenance schedule in your
engine manual. If you moor your Pro Line in salt water for extended periods make sure to check
the anti-corrosion anode often for operation. Make sure the anode surface is exposed and not caked
with corrosion and scale. If the anode is eroded renew it.
