Overview

If you’ve spent any amount of time running a Pro XS, you already know it’s the kind of engine that rewards you for staying ahead of your maintenance. These motors are built to run hard, jump onto plane fast, and carry you across long stretches of water without hesitation. And when you lean on a motor that much, having accurate maintenance information right where you need it becomes more than convenience—it becomes peace of mind. The Mercury 8M0148538 Maintenance Schedule Decal brings that confidence back in an instant. It’s clean, clear, and built exactly like the original label your engine shipped with.

There’s something reassuring about lifting the cowling and seeing the schedule laid out in crisp print. No guesswork, no digging through notes—just the information you need, right when you need it.

Performance & Practical Benefits

A maintenance decal might seem minor, but anyone who relies on a Pro XS knows that precision matters. These engines thrive on timely service, and having a clear schedule in front of you helps keep everything running tight and predictable. When hours start stacking up during long days of practice, tournaments, or wide-open runs across a lake, the last thing you want is to wonder when your next interval is due.

This decal adheres securely to the engine cowling, handling heat, vibration, and freshwater or saltwater spray without loosening. The print stays sharp, which means you’ll still be able to read it seasons from now. That kind of reliability becomes important when multiple people run the boat or when you’re maintaining several units in a fleet. It’s simple, sturdy, and designed to remove friction from engine care—one of those small details that makes your routine feel smoother and more controlled.

Proper maintenance keeps your Pro XS running strong, holding its throttle response, clean idle, and long-term efficiency. A good decal doesn’t do the work for you, but it definitely makes staying on schedule a whole lot easier.

Why Buy OEM

With decals, you might think any sticker will do—but that’s rarely true. Aftermarket versions often fade early, use weak adhesives, or don’t match the exact formatting Mercury uses.

Choosing an OEM Mercury Marine part gives you:

• Factory-correct placement, design, and layout
• Adhesive that holds up to real marine conditions
• Material that lasts under heat and UV exposure
• A decal that blends seamlessly with the original engine finish

If you want your Pro XS maintained the right way, going OEM is the practical choice every time.
