• Professional marine installation is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Does it fit every Suzuki DF60-DF300?

No. The range includes several different trim units. Match the original part number, four-bolt flange, two-wire connection and shaft arrangement.

Is the O-ring included?

Yes, an O-ring is stated as included. Confirm it matches the sealing arrangement before installation.

What should be checked if the old motor stopped working?

Check battery condition, relays, earth and power cables, voltage drop, corrosion, hydraulic fluid and pump condition so the replacement is not damaged by an unresolved fault.

Is it a genuine Suzuki part?

It is a replacement component unless the product packaging explicitly states genuine OEM.
