It replaces the sacrificial anodes in the propeller drive motor that gradually wear away while protecting the lower unit from corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit covers the two anode locations on the drive motor: the propeller anode that sits under the propeller hardware on the shaft, and the motor anode that mounts on the front of the drive motor behind the nose cone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Force and Force Kraken propeller drive motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes both anodes used on the drive motor: propeller anode and motor anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeasonal maintenance item: clean when more than half remains; replace when worn below half\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePropeller hardware reinstallation torque: 8.13 N-m (6 lbf-ft) on the propeller nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService access uses common tools such as a 9\/16 in (15 mm) socket plus 3 mm and 4 mm hex keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePropeller anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is for the anodes on the propeller drive motor assembly. It is intended for Garmin Force and Force Kraken trolling motors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a good match for boats that see brackish water, salt exposure, or marina environments where mixed metals and shore power can speed up corrosion, as long as the motor uses the standard Force anode locations described above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and maintenance\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eDisconnect the motor from power before working around the propeller or lower unit. For the propeller anode, remove the propeller nut with a 9\/16 in (15 mm) socket, lift off the propeller hardware, and swap the anode on the shaft before reinstalling and tightening the nut to 8.13 N-m (6 lbf-ft).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the motor anode, access is at the front of the drive motor behind the nose cone. The process involves removing the skeg and nose cone fasteners with hex keys, then removing the screw that holds the anode so it can be cleaned or replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan to inspect the anodes at least once each season. If an anode is more than half of its original size, cleaning it with a wire brush or sandpaper is typically sufficient. If it is less than half, replacement keeps the protection working as intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter running the motor in salt water or brackish water, rinse the entire motor with fresh water and wipe on a water-based silicone spray with a soft cloth. Avoid directing jets of water at the cap on the top of the shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269612695733,"sku":"QBP996096","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300655_qbp996096.jpg?v=1771544850","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp996096","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
