Troubleshooting:
Trouble unfurling the main:
1.
Ensure that the lever on the reefing winch is on free and not rachet.
2.
Pull on the furl out and outhaul at the same time. The outhaul is pulling on the
clew of the sail as the furl out is turning the foil to let the sail out. If the sail is
jamming as you pull it out, you will most likely see furled sail being pulled
through the slot in the mast. If so, furl back in until the sail is no longer bulging
out the slot. Pull on the “main out” first and the “out haul” second. Repeat this
several times until you have 1/3 of the sail out and from there the sail should
come out easier.
Furl in and out line breaks while the sail is out:
1.
Move the lever on the reefing winch to rachet.
2.
Using a winch handle in mast winch. Note this is a one speed winch. In the
ratchet position it will only turn one way. That is furling the sail away, ease the
outhaul as you furl in.
Never leave winch handle in reefing winch.
Furl in and out line hops off the reefing winch:
1.
Ensure lever on reefing winch is in the free position.
2.
This is just like putting a chain back on a bicycle.
3.
Turn the winch with a winch handle to determine which way is better for you.
4.
Using your thumb press part of the in between the winch drum and the body of
the winch on either side of the winch. Turn the winch so that it is taking the line
into that slot. You will need to continue to assist the line until it is completely
back around the winch.
