2. Remove self-tailing arm (3) and drum (5).
3. Insert a winch handle. Pull up the drive shaft (6) gently, while turning gear wheel (15)
and ratchet gear (12) carefully. Remove drive shaft (6).
4. Remove plugs (6.4), pawls (6.3) and arm springs (6.2).
5. Remove ratchet gear (12) and bushing (11).
6. Remove ratchet gear (13).

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functioning.

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 to use ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE, when lubricating your
winch.ANDERSENWINCHGREASEisahighqualitysilicone/Teon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 the self-tailing arm is positioned correctly. We recommend to have the
self-tailing arm positioned within the shaded area (shown above). On this model the self-
tailing arm can be placed in several dierent positions after having installed the winch.
To identify the Output Drive Gear, insert a winch handle into the winch
androtateinbothdirections,thedrivegearwillonlyrotateclockwise
in a fast and slow speed.

•In the event of a rope override or other fault, stop the winch and turn o power before
attempting to resolve the problem.
Avoid Accidental Operation
Remove winch handles and turn o power to the winch when not in use to help avoid
unsupervised or unintentional operation. Failure to do so could result in significant
damage and/or serious injury.
Maintenance
Turnopowertothewinchbeforeperforminganymaintenanceorservicetasks.Failure
