winches. After the anchor has started a free lowering, release the button and it will automatically return
to its original position. For the SH 35PRO winch, when the “Down” button is pressed, the winch will
smoothly lower the anchor by 1.20 m into the water with the help of a motor, and then the anchor will
be released freely.
Important:
It is forbidden to press the “Up” button (top of the button) of the winch or of the remote
control during the free lowering of the anchor. This will lead to the failure of the winch and the destruction
of the mechanical parts of the winch, and in the future to rejection of warranty repair.
Boat anchoring
After you have lowered the anchor, you are anchoring the vessel. To do this, you need to press the “Up”
button (top of the button) of the winch itself or of the remote control panel to lift the anchor. The winch
will start spooling the anchor rope. This action will serve as a signal for you that the winch has brought
the mechanism in readiness for anchoring the vessel; after that, you can release the anchor lift button, so
your boat will take the parking position.
Lifting the anchor
When lifting the anchor, press
the “Up” button (the top of the button). The lifting will start. After the
anchor has come to its original position on the anchor roller, release the button, and it will automatically
return to its original position. In case you kept the button too long while lifting the anchor, the thermal
relay may be activated. After the protection has tripped, the thermal relay will automatically return to
operating mode within a few seconds, and the winch will again be ready for operation.
The anchor winch is not designed for continuous operation. Do not use the winch for more than 15
minutes when loading. The allowed interval is 20~30 minutes after each operation.
Important:
The winch is designed to lift the anchor and not to move the boat, pulling her on the carriage
or mooring.
Safe use of the anchor winch on water.
When navigating on water, and especially when waving, the anchor should be placed in the boat to ensure
the safety of your floating device and your personal safety. After use, fix the anchor in the anchor roller
with the fixing device included in the winch kit to avoid damage caused by accidental dropping of the
anchor during sailing.
