GENERAL INFORMATION
Due to the best choice of materials and high precision in manufacturing, we recommend, for
normal use, only to dismantle, clean and lubricate the winch once every second year. Under
extensive use, such as racing, charter or blue water sailing, we recommend to lubricate the winch
once every year.
We strongly recommend always using ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE, when lubricating your
winch. ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE is a high quality silicone/Teflon grease product.
Most other types of grease, including “marine grease” are not suitable for lubrication of winches.
Non-suitable grease products can cause malfunction, which could result in fatal injuries for the
user and others.
Pawl arm springs should be replaced every second year. Spare arm springs and other parts that
may be required are included in the ANDERSEN Service Kit. Please refer to the service instruction
for the Service Kit suitable for the specific winch.
When the winch handle is not in use but the winch is under load, we recommend, from a safety
point of view, to remove the winch handle from the winch.
To ensure correct function of the self-tailing unit, only use recommended line sizes. When using
the winch with mooring lines DO NOT use the self-tailing function and be sure that the mooring line
is not in contact with the self-tailing arm.
To ensure the best possible functioning of the winch, we recommend that the winch is placed in
accordance with the line entry shown below.
Be also aware that self-tailing arm is positioned correctly. We recommend having the self-tailing
arm positioned within the shaded area. On 12ST and 28ST the position of the self-tailing arm is
fixed, making it very important to establish the proper location of the holes prior to drilling these in
the deck. On all other models, the self-tailing arm can be placed in several different positions after
having installed the winch.

INSTALLATION
46ST ver. 4.1 – 46ST FS ver. 4.1.F
Installing the winch is easy, if you follow these instructions. The numbers in ( ) refer to the position
numbers in the parts list.
Tools required for the installation:
Allen key (4 mm).
Allen key (5 mm).
Allen key(6 mm).
Ø 8.5 mm. (11/32”) drill.
5 pcs. M8 (5/16”) bolts and nuts (length depending on deck thickness).
5 x large washers or backing plate.
Ring spanner to match nuts.
Bedding compound.
1. Drill bolt holes Ø8,5mm (11/32”) using the winch template. Be sure that no dust comes in
contact with the winch, while drilling.
2. Remove screws (1).
3. Remove self-tailing arm (2) and drum (4).
4. Apply a light coat of bedding compound, ensuring that each bolt hole is bedded. Keep
drain grooves clear.
5. Fasten lower base (19) into place using 5 pcs. M8 (5/16”) bolts. Use large washers or a
backing plate.
6. Assemble in reverse order.

SERVICE INSTRUCTION
46ST ver. 4.1 – 46ST FS ver. 4.1.F
Tools required for service:
Allen key (4 mm.).
Allen key (5 mm.).
Screwdriver (small).
Winch handle.
ANDERSEN winch grease
1. Remove screws (1).
2. Remove self-tailing arm (2) and drum (4).
3. Remove screws (14).
4. Remove upper base (8), and place it in a safe and comfortable place before dismantling it !
5. Remove drive shaft (5). by using a finger or a winch handle.
6. To release the roller bearing (6), gently insert a small screwdriver between roller bearing
and base plate (8). Remove roller bearing.
7. Remove shafts (12.7, 13.7).
8. Remove and dismantle the two gear units.
9. Clean all parts in benzine. Remember to clean the gear teeth, roller bearing track and
bushing inside the drum (4).
10. Assemble in reverse order. During assemble, by the use of a small soft brush lightly grease
all gear teeth, drive shaft, roller bearing, shafts, pawls, springs and bushings. Pawls should
only be lubricated with a very thin film of ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE. It is very important
that pawls can move freely.
IMPORTANT: When assembling the winch, check the functioning of each pawl by pushing the
pawl against the spring. The pawls should move smoothly and automatically return to their normal
position, where the pawls engage with the teeth. If the pawls do not function correctly, clean and
lubricate the pawls and gears. Check the function of the pawls again to make sure that it works
correctly. If the pawls do not work correctly replace the springs and recheck the function.
Malfunctioning pawls may lead to unexpected failure of a loaded winch resulting in material
damage or fatal personal injury.
