46 Rewind ™ Radial Winch
Installation and Maintenance Manual
WARNING!
Failure to use the correct number and type of mounting fasteners
or failure to ensure the correct deck strength can result in the
winch pulling off the deck suddenly and unexpectedly during
high loads causing severe injury or death.
WARNING!
Verify the entry angle of the sheet. This must be 8° with tolerance
of ±2°, to avoid sheet overrides and damaging the winch or
making the winch inoperable leading to loss of control of the boat
which can lead to severe injury or death.
WARNING!
Mount the winch on the deck so that the fi nal drive gear is
positioned where the sheet enters the winch drum.
Incorrect position of drive gear can weaken winch leading to failure
which can cause an accident leading to severe injury or death.
NOTICE
For winch STA, STC and STCW versions only you can find
the icon on the skirt to identify the drive gear position.
After correctly positioning the fi nal drive gear with respect to the load, check that the motor,
gearing, electrical wiring and/or hydraulic pipes can be housed below decks. To help fi nd the
optimal compromise, remember that, to make the installation of the motor easier, it can be coupled
to the winch in different positions.
Once you have decided the correct mounting position for the winch on the deck and checked the
space available below deck, proceed with the installation.
The winch can be installed following one of the two procedures below
(Procedure1
or
Procedure 2).
Before starting the Installation procedure, set the knob in the following position:
