If the motor is used in saltwater, it has been identified that the studs located on the upper shift arm of the specified FourStroke models can corrode over time. This could lead to potential loss of shift function during a component failure. Outboards outside of the affected serial number range, or within the affected serial number range that have only been operated in freshwater markets, do not require modification.
This product does not meet safety standards.
