Fumes for the engine(s), generator, LPG stoves, and other
equipment that burns fuel contain Carbon Monoxide.
Carbon Monoxide can kill you. Open all doors, hatches,
curtains, and windows to allow fresh air to circulate.
Never ignore an alarm.
To reduce the risk of Carbon Monoxide poisoning, test the
monitor operation when not in use for 10 days or more.
10. Bow Anchor Windlass (optional)
The anchor windlass located at the bow of the boat assists with the anchoring of your boat by raising
and lowering the anchor. The windlass is operated from the main helm.
Operation
To operate the windlass, the windlass breaker located below the battery switch panel, must be
turned ON. Operation of the windlass at the helm is controlled by a momentary switch used to raise
and lower the anchor. Pushing down on the switch will lower the anchor, while pushing up on the
switch raises the anchor.
Manual Operation
In the event that there is a loss of power, the windlass can still be used to raise or lower the anchor
manually. If there is a loss of power, check the windlass breaker to see if it needs to be reset. If you
reset the breaker and it continues to trip, have your authorized Quicksilver® dealer inspect the
system.
In order to manually operate the windlass and lower the anchor into the water, insert the emergency
handle (provided by the windlass manufacturer) into the star socket located at the top of the gypsy
cover and turn counter-clockwise. This loosens the clutch holding the anchor rode and chain in place
and allows the anchor to be deployed into the water. The speed of the rode can be adjusted by
turning the handle clockwise. To re-engage the clutch and lock the rode from moving, turn the handle
clockwise.
To manually raise the anchor, loosen the clutch by turning the handle counter-clockwise, and pull the
anchor up into the boat. Make sure to properly feed the rode and chain through the windlass when
pulling up the anchor. When the anchor is up and stowed properly in the bow pulpit, re-engage the
clutch by turning the handle clockwise.
