Introduction
Congratulations on your new windlass and thank you for selecting a Side-Power windlass. We hope your windlass will meet
your expectations. Please note that this requires that the windlass will be installed and used in accordance with this manual in
an environment with the correct conditions for proper operations. This includes the necessary voltage capacity for the wind-
lass motor as well as correct placement of windlass, rope, anchor and anchor bracket.
Introduction of MIDI 201
Side-Power Engbo MIDI 201 is designed for boats up to approximately 25 feet. These windlasses are true free-fall windlasses
and are developed with a new electrical control box unit. This new unit is ready for connecting Side-Power remote control and
switch panel.
IMPORTANT!
This manual contains information you need to know before installing and operating the windlass. Therefore, please read it
carefully.
General procedure for use of Side-Power windlasses
Read the operating manual carefully before installing and using the windlass.
Please note that strong forces are involved, so please use the windlass carefully and make sure, for example, that:
• Keep your distance to the windlass, the rope, anchor and anchor brackets during operation
• Keep the rope/chain under observation during anchor handling.
• Make sure anyone using the windlass knows how to operate it.
• Be aware when the anchor are raised as it can bring unwanted debris up from the bottom, potentially damaging your
boat.
• If the windlass is straining as the anchor are raised, stop for a few seconds and let the boat pic up momentum before
continuing the raise.
• If the anchor is stuck, release some rope/chain and attach it to a cleat before using the boat to pull the anchor free. The
windlass is not designed for loads beyond the specied pull capabilities.
• The anchor MUST ALWAYS be secured to the boat while sailing. Use the security line or other means to prevent uninten-
tional anchor drop.
• Turn off the power to the windlass when not in use.
• Children must not operate the windlass.
• Careless use can cause damage or injury!
• Make sure to have good battery capacity, and keep the engine running windlass operation.
• Sleipner Motor AS is not responsible for injury caused by the use of our windlass systems
IMPORTANT!
• Always keep the boat’s motor running when operating the windlass.
• Always turn off the power to the windlass when it is not operated.
• The anchor must always be secured with security line when windlass is not in use.
• Always use original Side-Power rope.
• While dropping anchor, do not push the “UP” button until the anchor is resting at the seabed.
• Windlass and accessories must be installed and used in a manner that will not cause damage or injury.
• Personnel qualied for high current installations must carry out or check the installation.
• Do not mount any windlass parts in hazardous environments (I.e. ammable fumes or gasses).
• Control unit 150800 unit is NOT protected from water ingress, it must be installed in a dry area and
not exposed for water.
• Windlass motor installations that are exposed to humidity MUST be surface protected with Tectyl or
similar.

Docking with remote control
RC-21E, RC-22E & RC-23E
1. Make sure the boat engine is running during anchoring.
2. Decide where you want to drop anchor.
3. Check that the safety line on the anchor has been loosened.
4. Turn ON the main switch of the windlass.
5. When main switch for the windlass has been switched off,
you must press down both ON buttons on the remote, be-
fore pressing DOWN button to release the anchor.
Docking with xed switch panel
1. Press the down button for at least 1 sec.
2. The anchor will drop.
3. The windlass is now released and the rope will run out in
step with the progress of the boat towards land.
4. Tie up the boat
Note!
If you are using a free-fall chain windlass, the high weight of the
chain may result in the full length of the chain being pulled out.
If so, make sure to tighten the slack once you have tied up the
boat.
Note!The windlass will always wind in slowly before it switches
to full speed. From software 1.008 can the windlass wind in with
reduced speed by double clicking the UP button.
Departing
1. Start the boat engine to charge the battery.
2. Turn on the main switch.
3. Release the mooring from land.
4. Activate the windlass.
5. Keep the up button depressed, and the windlass will pull
the boat away from land. The windlass will pull the anchor
up at full speed until the rst auto stop is activated.
After the rst auto stop:
1. Release the up button, press again and keep depressed.
2. The windlass will continue to raise the anchor slowly until
the second auto stop is activated, stopping the windlass
completely.
3. The anchor will then be correctly seated in the anchor
bracket.
4. Attach the safety line to the anchor.
5. Turn off the main switch of the windlass.
6. Have a pleasant sailing!
Note! This ONLY applies for rope windlasses and requires the
anchor rope to be correctly tted with brass wire markers.
Important! Keep an eye on the anchor when it leaves the water
and seats in the anchor bracket. This will allow you to stop the
windlass and prevent damage if the anchor pulls up foreign
objects from the seabed.
Note! If the windlass is straining while raising the anchor, it
would be a good idea to run the windlass in periods. Once the
boat has begun to move backwards, you can release the up but-
ton and then run the windlass in periods.

Wireless remote control RC-21E
The remote is waterproof and oats if dropped into the water.
It has under normal conditions an radio range of 15m.
See own manual for more information and variants.
Note! Remote and receiver is normally connected and ready
to use.
• Remote control is turned ON by pressing both ON but-
tons.
• To ensure a long battery lifetime, the remote control
switches off automatically 4 min. after the last button was
pressed.
Anchor DOWN
• When the remote control is switched on, you can drop the
anchor by pressing the “down” button. Keep this button
depressed for at least 1 second to drop the anchor.
• The windlass will then run out slowly in the beginning to
ensure the correct release function.
Anchor UP
• When the anchor has dropped to the seabed, press the
“up” button to tighten the slack. The windlass will continue
to winch in as long as you keep the “up” button de-
pressed. If the remote control has switched off automati-
cally (i.e. if you have not pressed a button for more than 4
min) you must rst switch ON, and then immediately press
UP start to wind in the anchor rope/chain. The windlass
always starts to operate at reduced speed before increas-
ing to full speed.
IMPORTANT!
• Always turn OFF the power to the windlass when it is not
being operated.
• The anchor must always be secured to the boat while the
boat is sailing. Use the safety line supplied.

Before installation
Remember!
• Make sure to have all necessary tools ready
• Unpack and organize all components
• Prepare and control the areas where all the different parts can be mounted.
• Follow the mounting instructions
• When winching the rope for the first time after mounting, make sure the rope is tight, so the rope is pulled inn cor-
rectly.
Placing the parts
You must plan the placement of the following parts:
• Winch/motor
• Brackets for anchor and windlass
• Cables
• Switch panel
• Controlbox
• Line guide
• Main switch/ miniature circuit breaker
General
The windlass should be positioned as high as possible to al-
low maximum space for the rope that will be stored below the
windlass. The height from the bottom of the wall where the rope
is stored to the bottom edge of the line wheel should be at
least 50 cm, and the area should be at least 40 x 40 cm to allow
room for 50 m x 12 mm anchor rope. This will prevent the rope
from bunching under the windlass and assure sufcient friction
between the line wheel and the rope.
Note! Remember to attach the end of the rope somewhere
inside the boat.
Anchor bracket
Fit the windlass so that the rope is wound up in line with the
anchor bracket (see pictures 1 and 2) – a numerous different
models are available. The anchor bracket is working as a guide
for the rope when the anchor is on the seabed and as a “seating
point” for the anchor once it has been raised.
Use of anchor bracket
The bracket for the rope must be installed with the rollers out-
side the platform.
Standard platform roller or hinged platform
roller
If the windlass is tted low in relation to the bathing platform,
so the angle between the bathing platform and the rope is too
small ,and if you are using a Bruce anchor, you should use an
Side-Power Engbo hinged platform roller.
Hull conduit / Line guide
It will often be necessary to install a hull conduit with a roller that
guides the rope with low friction through the hull.
Rope
Side-Power Engbo supplies original woven anchor rope with a
lead core . It is supplied in various lengths and dimensions.
Safety line
Once the anchor is seated in the anchor bracket, it must be
secured with the safety line supplied.

Installation
Mounting
• The mounting bracket for MIDI 201 allows for innitely vari-
able rotation in relation to the windlass gear/motor.
• The bracket for the rope guide/deector can also be
rotated independently of the gear/motor and mounting
bracket.
• This allows for installing the windlass on surfaces with dif-
ferent angles in relation to the stern. It can be tted on the
inside of the stern, hanging below the deck or aft of cross
bulkheads inside the boat.
• Position the windlass mounting bracket by loosening the
two screws fastening the bracket to the gear housing,
rotate the windlass to the correct position and tighten the
screws.
Note! Max. tightening torque 17 Nm.
• Adjust the windlass rope guide bracket in a correspond-
ing manner by loosening the screw fastening it to the gear
house. Rotate the bracket so the rope is guided down and
away from bulkheads and components that prevent the
rope from coiling correctly below the windlass.
Note! Max. tightening torque 17 Nm.
NOTE! It is important that the rope is wound sufciently around
the line wheel to ensure a good grip on the rope.
See separate section.
NOTE! The ”line guide” must be located in centre of the line
wheel. Also check this after having tightened the xing screw.

Midi 201 2904-6 - 2019
Insert the rope into the windlass
line wheel
Insert the rope into the line wheel between the line wheel and
the rope guide. It may be easier if you bend the tip of the rope
guide carefully.
Route the rope via the line wheel and out through the hole in
the rope deector.
When the windlass is connected, the rope can be pulled by
pressing down on the up button on the touch panel or remote
control.
Note! Be careful to avoid injuring ngers.
When the tip of the rope has been pulled through the rope
deector, the rest of the rope can be pulled through using the
windlass.
Make sure the windlass reels as intended.
Remember!
When pulling in the rope for the rst time,
you must keep the rope tight, so the rope
run correctly.
10 Midi 201 2904-6 - 2019
Installation
Rope around the line wheel
The mounting bracket for MIDI 201 allows for innitely variable
rotation in relation to the windlass gear/motor.
The bracket for the rope guide/deector can also be rotated inde-
pendently of the gear/motor and mounting bracket. See separate
description.
This description is for installation of the windlass on a vertical cross
bulkhead, on the inside of the stern, for example. The green broken
line indicates the bulkhead that the windlass is fastened to.
It is important that the length of rope that is in contact with the line
wheel is sufcient to ensure good engagement/friction with the
rope. See yellow arrows.
Note! Regardless of how the windlass is fastened to the boat, the
angle between where the rope enters and leaves the line wheel
must be minimum 90 degrees.
This illustration indicates the windlass fastened below deck, etc.
The windlass mounting bracket has been rotated 90degrees
counter-clockwise compared with the illustration above.
The rope comes from above and goes down into the line wheel.
In this case, the rope guide must be adjusted to ensure the rope is
pushed out horizontally from the windlass.
This picture shows the windlass installed on the back side of an
inboard cross bulkhead.
The windlass mounting bracket has been rotated 180degrees coun-
ter-clockwise compared with the illustration on top of this page.
NOTE! The rope is always pulled into the windlass from the right.
This is because of the direction of rotation for the windlass line
wheel.
NOTE! Make sure there is sufcient room to stow the rope below
and next to the windlass.
Remember!
When pulling in the rope for the rst time, you
must keep the rope tight, so the rope run cor-
rectly.

Installation
Minimum rope clearance and
height under windlass
In order for the windlass to function normally, there must be a
sufcient volume/height below the windlass for stowing the rope
when the anchor is up.
This table below shows recommended minimum height (A)
below the windlass as well as width (B) and length (C) of the area
used for stowing the rope.
Tau dimensjon. A (cm) B (cm) C (cm)
10 mm x 30 m 35 30 30
12 mm x 30 m 35 30 30
12 mm x 50 m 40 35 35
NOTE! In case of installations where the rope is routed horizontal-
ly out of the windlass when the anchor is up, the relationship be-
tween A, B and C may vary. It is important that there is a sufcient
volume to ensure that the rope is not forced into place below the
windlass and cannot easily be pulled out by the line wheel.
Installation of stop ring for auto
stop
NOTE! Applies to MIDI 201 only
Under the rope guide there is an inductive sensor that signals
auto stop when the anchor has been lifted all the way up. To acti-
vate the detector, two stop rings (included) are tted on the rope.
See procedure below.
The outer diameter of the stop ring must be as close to the outer
diameter of the rope as possible. This is necessary in order for
the inductive detector to be able to detect correctly.
In order to place the stop ring at the correct location on the rope,
lift the anchor until the thimble eye is 25-50 cm below the rope
roller (reel in at slow speed for the last section), and mark the
rope with a marker at the location of the inductive sensor. The
anchor is then reeled in at low speed to the desired nal resting
position. Mark the rope once more by the detector and fasten the
stop rings by the marks.
These stop rings will be exposed to wear by the line wheel,
especially during heavy loads, and must therefore be inspected
regularly. Replace damaged stop rings if needed.
Recommended tools:
• Keeper ring pliers
• Pliers
• Auto stop rings (steel rings enclosed)
12 Midi 201 2904-6 - 2019
Installation
The enclosed steel rings (auto stop rings) are tted in the loca-
tions where the windlass should slow down and then come to a
full stop. Mark in advance; see procedure on the previous page.
Open the stop rings with the keeper ring plier.
Fit the ring over the rope.
Use the plier to pull the stop ring into place with the stop
ring joint overlapping the opening and the ring tted thightly
around the rope.
Force the ends into the rope with the pliers to ensure the stop
ring does not slip on the rope.
A tted stop ring should look like this with closed windings and
the ends secured inside the rope.
Stop ring tted and fastened tightly to the rope.
Fasten the other stop ring in the same manner.

Maintenance and service
Winter storage
• Remove the rope from the windlass before every period of
winter storage. Soak it in a mild soap solution overnight. Then
wash it in water and rinsing uid to rinse out all the salt resi-
due and dirt. This will keep the rope exible for many years.
At the same time, check the wire thread auto stop indicators
and replace them if necessary.
• Before winter storage, spray the windlass and all electrical
points and connections with a moisture repellent spray.
• Make sure that the windlass is protected against snow and
water during winter storage.
• Do not wrap the windlass, as this may cause condensation to
form during winter storage.
• It is also a good idea to wash the inside of the rope box and
remove seaweed, dirt, etc.

Troubleshooting
FAULT SYMPTOM FAULT CODES/STATUS SOLUTION
Windlass does not operate "Power" LED not lit Check:
Main switch/breaker is engaged.
Check battery fuses.
Visually inspect cables and verify that terminals are tight.
Measure battery voltage.
"Power" LED lit Turn on panel / remote control (see user manual)
See below:
Windlass only runs for 0,5 seconds
when pressing "IN" None Check control panel connections. Signals for "IN" and "OUT" might be
swapped.
When pressing "OUT" free fall is not
engaged.
Or: When pressing "IN", motor is
running but gypsy is not turning
None Swap motor cables D1 and D2 on the control unit
Windlass has poor performance “Low voltage” Voltage has dropped below 9V
Check batteries.
None Measure battery voltage while operating the windlass. I voltage measure
below 11V/22V, allow batteries to charge.
If the battery voltage is acceptable, measure voltage on the motor termi-
nals, cable voltage drop should be less than 1V when motor is running.
Windlass releases anchor, but do
not wind in None Check that end stop sensor is not active (Indicated by "End Stop" LED on
control unit or LED built into the sensor.)
Check sensor connections on the control unit.
Sensor LED should not be lit if no metal object is present in front of it.
Windlass wind past endstop None Check that the end stop wire wound around the rope is intact. Pull the rope
with end stop wire over the end stop sensor and verify that («End Stop» LED
light up)
Adjust sensor closer to the rope if neccesary.
Windlass releases anchor, but stops
immediatly when pressing "IN" None or “Low voltage” If the battery is in poor condition it might measure 12/24V when windlass
is not in use and still experince a signicant voltage drop when the motor
starts (such voltage dips might be diffcult to measure) This type of voltage
drops can lead to false triggering of the end stop sensor.
Windlass stops during operation “Motor Overload” Current limitation has triggered.
This means that the windlass is overloaded. Try again with reduced load.
If this fault is triggered while the windlass is lightly loaded, it might indicate
a mechanical failure.
“Controller Overtemp” The control unit temperature sensor is too warm.
Let the controller cool down, and try again.
“Motor Overtemp” The motor is too hot.
The windlass controller calculates motor temperature depending on load
and run time.
Let the windlass cool down.
“Controller Overload” This fault indicates that the internal protection of the contrroller has trig-
gered. This can be caused by exccessive surrounding temperature and high
load
“Runtime Exceeded” Signal "OUT" or "IN" have been continuous for more than 5 minutes. This is
a protection against possible faulty control signals. Re-activation is possible.
Abnormal noise during operation The windlass must be serviced.
Windlass operates, but rope is not
wound in The rope can slip in the gypsy if the windlass is mounted incorrectly.
Anchor is not released The anchor might not release from the bracket if mounted incorrectly.
Note! Main switch/braker must be disconnected whenever working on the windlass mechanical parts
If the windlass still does not work normally after you have tried these procedures, the fault is in the windlass itself. Contact
your nearest dealer.

bled. Error codes reset.
Normal situation by anchoring for transit or
departure after anchoring.
Note! Windlass control unit do not "remem-
ber" where anchor is located, after beeing
unpowered. Can also be used for trouble-
shooting.
Since windlass control unit do not remember
where the anchor is located, will a normal
"inn"/pulling of anchor run not be possible
after powerup.

"out" is pressed and held Rope windlass: Freefall activated (you can hear
the windlass motor run for 1 sec). Motor stops
after 1 sec whether "out" held in. Chain windlass:
"Out" is held as long as you wants to run out
anchor.
Rope is released and anchor can drop to the
bottom. When the anchor reaches the bot-
tom, the rope is still disengaged. The function
is completed profundity of 'out' button is
pressed or held down.
Anchor can be dropped at the desired posi-
tion, and the boat can sail to nal position
before freefall deactivates by pressing "up".
NB! Depending on the anchor dip angle of the
bracket, can some installations require help to
release the anchor.
"Do not press ""up"" before anchor has
reached the bottom.
NB! Motor always has a straight ow shift rest-
ing time of 1 second."
"inn" is pressed briefly Anchor pulled slightly in. Rope is no longer
disengaged.
Used to adjust the anchor or to lock the rope. If you want to "attach" anchor, rope should be
attached to the boat (Mooring line or similar.)
Caution! When setting anchor, it may be dif-
cult to control applied load. Low drift when
releasing the rope (boat and rope is not in
line) can also cause heavy loads on the anchor
rollers and fastenings. Use a suitable mount-
ing point on the boat. Especially under rough
conditions.
"inn" is pressed and held The windlass starts pulling the anchor The windlass goes from 0-100% speed in 3 sec
and continues untill the button is released or
rst end stop is activated.
Pull Speed: 20-25 m / min depending on load Long and heavy run on motor or short nearly
blocked run can cause the protection device to
stop the windlass. Other recorded errors can
also cause stops. (Error Codes is shown under
the cover on the control unit, see manual for
more information).
First end stop is detected
(NB end stop detected
during run)
Windlass stop Windlass stops. From this point the anchor can
be released again or pulled up (windlass will
be running at reduced speed if you continue
running towards second end top)
In most cases place the end stop to anchor
aprox 1 meter below the water surface. Then
you can carefully pull inn the anchor in order to
"wash" the anchor before it is pulled into inner
position
Continue pulling inn: Maximum allowed power
consumtion is limited to protect ttings, brack-
ets, platform and windlass.
Second end stop is
detected (NB end stop
detected during run)
Windlass stop From this point it is only possible to drop
anchor if the main power is cut. (Control unit
is reset)
This end stop should be positioned so the
anchor reaches correct position in the bracket
and the rope is tight.
Not possible to pull inn.
Double-tap, with hold on
second press 2 (2) Up slowly / anchor inn

overnight)
Reduced power consumtion. Maximum run-
ning time on reduced speed = 30sec.
