Harken 207 Installation Sheet Download Page 2

Harken equipment is designed for minimal maintenance, but some maintenance is 

required to give the best service and to comply with the Harken limited warranty.
In general, the most important aspect of maintenance is to keep your equipment 

clean by frequently flushing with freshwater.
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 recommend-

ed in the instruction sheets.
Many Harken products are provided with specific instruction sheets that detail 

maintenance procedures. Instruction sheets are available at no charge by contact-

ing Harken or a Harken distributor.
Furling System: Keep furling units clean by flushing frequently with fresh water. 

Periodically clean the lower unit and the halyard swivel with detergent and fresh 

water to remove deposits of salt and dirt. Lubrication is not required.
Important! Exposure to some teak cleaners and other caustic solutions can result  

in discoloration of part and is not covered under the Harken warranty.

Upper Swivel: Attach the upper swivel to the jib halyard. Fasten the 

head of the jib to the upper swivel and attach the tack to the top of  

the drum. Hoist the sail with the halyard, snug it up and cleat.

Furling Line Lead and Cleat: Lead the furling line through the aft  

slot on the starboard side of the drum so it does not rub and lead it  

to a point on the starboard side of the foredeck where the line lead  

is exactly perpendicular to the luff wire or forestay. Mount a plastic 

bullseye fairlead at this point or use a 348 bullet block on an eyestrap. 

Lead the line aft and mount a 356 cam cleat with fairlead. Tie a figure 

“8” knot in the end and you’re ready to furl.
