Serial and Model Number Location
 Evinrude outboard engines have a serial number label that is located on the transom bracket. Serial number labels
will reference the date of manufacture for the engine by providing visibility of the month and year the engine was produced. For example, if an engine was manufactured in May of 2012, the serial number label will reflect 05/2012 directly
below where the serial number is indicated.
When a significant product change occurs (i.e. when a new model is introduced that replaces a prior version), the model designation will change as needed. By utilizing this process, models with the same code are physically identical, regardless of when they were built. To view the date of manufacture, reference the serial number label that is located on the engine. |
