Inspection
Perform a visual inspection of the integral backstay adjuster prior to each use to ensure clean, unobstructed
working conditions.
Cylinder care and maintenance
The Harken integral backstay adjuster should give years of reliable service. If it is properly bled, and clean
environment is maintained, no regular maintenance is required. Seals should be changed every ten years
(dependent on use) unless adjuster eases without pressure relief valve releasing the pressure first. If you
experience any problems with your Harken integral backstay adjuster, contact your Harken service representative.
