Corrosion Control Anode
Your outboard has three corrosion control anodes. One of the
anodes is the round plate installed on the antiventilation plate (a), a
second one is located just above the antiventilation plate (b), and the
third is installed on the bottom of the transom bracket assembly (c).
An anode helps protect the outboard against galvanic corrosion by
sacrificing its metal to be slowly eroded instead of the outboard met-
als.
1 Each anode requires periodic inspection, especially in salt water
which accelerates erosion. To maintain this corrosion protection,
always replace the anode before it is completely eroded. Never
paint or apply a protective coating on the anode as this will reduce
effectiveness of the anode.
