Maintenance

Washing

Winches must be washed frequently with fresh water, and in any case after each use.

Do not allow teak cleaning products or other cleaners containing caustic solutions to come into

contact with winches and especially anodised, chrome plated or plastic parts.

Do not use solvents, polishes or abrasive pastes on the logos or stickers on the winches. Do not

use polishes or abrasive pastes on anodised, chromed plated or plastics surfaces.

Make sure that the holes and drainage channels in the base of the winch are not obstructed so

that water does not collect.

Maintenancetable

Winches must be visually inspected at the beginning and end of every season of sailing or racing.

In addition they must be completely overhauled, cleaned and lubricated at least every 12 months.

After an inspection, replace worn or damaged components. Do not replace or modify any part of

the winch with a part that is not original.

WARNING!

Periodic maintenance must be carried out regularly. Lack of adequate maintenance shortens

the life of the winch, can cause serious injury and also invalidate the winch warranty.

Installation and maintenance of winches must be carried out exclusively by specialized

personnel.
