CLR Mooring Winch
Installation and Maintenance Manual - Mod.A
9. Maintenance
9.1 Washing
The more the winch is used, the more frequent it will be its maintenance and cleaning: environmental
conditions and use influence the usury of the components of the winch and directly the maintenance
and cleaning frequency by the user.
Winch must be frequently washed with fresh water, at least after each use.
In addition they must be completely overhauled, cleaned and lubricated at least every 12 months.
After an inspection, replace worn or damaged components.
Use a brush to lightly lubricate all gears, gear pins, teeth and all moving parts with grease.
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, chrome plated, wooden 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.
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.
WARNING!
Make sure that the power is switched off before carrying out maintenance on the winch.
