SHEET WINCHES AND MANOEUVRE WINCHES (MANUAL OR ELECTRIC)
(OPTIONAL EXTRA)
The circuit breakers for the electric winches are located in the
passageway locker facing the aft starboard cabin.
RECOMMENDATION
Have at least 3 turns on the winch.
Electrical winches generate an extremely powerful
force and you should use them with much care.
Never force when you find a jamming point.
When using the winches, keep your hands away.
WARNING
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove
the winches and put them back.
Improper refitting may result in accidents (for
example: kick of the crank handle).
