Harken equipment requires minimal maintenance, but some is required to give the best service and to

comply with Harken's limited warranty.
It is important to keep equipment clean by frequently flushing with fresh water. In corrosive

atmospheres, stainless parts may show discoloration around holes, rivets and screws. This is not

serious and may be removed with a fine abrasive.
With the exception of winches, do not use grease unless specifically recommended in the instruction

sheets.
IMPORTANT! Exposure to some teak cleaners and other caustic solutions can result in discoloration

of part and is not covered under the Harken warranty.
