The exhaust pipe in outboard drive installations
must be checked annually for corrosion damage
between the hose (1) and the pipe (2).
WARNING! Risk of water entry. Check the
exhaust pipe with the boat hauled up on land.
If there is considerable corrosion damage, the
pipe must be repaired or replaced by a new
one.
To check: Undo clamp (3) and the two lower clamps
which hold hose (1). Lift up the elbow (4) to undo the
hose from the pipe. Check the mating surface (5). If
there is considerable corrosion damage, the pipe
must be repaired or replaced by a new one.
