This information must be followed to avoid damage to the system and the risk of per-

sonal injury.

 

The 5-year guarantee on the Furlex-system is only valid if the system is assembled and 

operated correctly according to the manual.

1 Introduction

 

PLEASE read the entire manual prior to assembly.

Seldén Mast AB guarantees the Furlex-system for 5 years. The guarantee covers faults arising from 

defective design, materials or workmanship.

The guarantee is only valid if the Furlex-system is assembled, operated and maintained in accordance with 

this manual and is not subjected to loads in excess of those indicated in the brochure and instructions.

If the system is repaired by anyone other than Seldén Mast AB or one of our authorised dealers, the 

guarantee ceases to be valid.

Seldén Mast AB reserves the right to alter the content and design without prior warning and to future 

design changes.

1.1 The manual

  This manual covers assembly of the rod forestay and replaces the corresponding headings in the 

"Manual Furlex 200 TD, 300 TD" (part no: 595-231-E) These instructions are included in Furlex box. 

See "Contents" on page 3.

  It is very important to read both manuals and note any cross references. 

  All safety-related information is indicated by the following symbol:

  The manual covers three different Furlex sizes, 200 TD, 300 TD and 400 TD. 

The model designation can be found on the deck collar. 

The assembly procedure varies slightly between the different sizes. These differences are marked in 

the manual.

  All dimensions specified in the manual are in millimetres (mm) unless otherwise indicated.
