Savwinch Tips
1. To drop the anchor, go past your mark and put the boat in reverse and idle back.
2. When you are ready, press down on the rocker switch panel to release the anchor. Observe
the operation and ensure there is tension on the rope. Be sure not to overrun the rope on the
drum.
3. Once the rope becomes loose/slack, stop the downwards operation. If at this point more
rope is required to be released, jog/inch the down on the rocker switch panel until the slack
rope becomes tight again.
4. When satisfied with the position and the amount of rope released, switch off the engine.
5. To retrieve the anchor, start your engine and idle forward whilst pushing up on the rocker
switch panel.
6. Observe the operation and be ready to stop as the anchor reaches the top bow roller. At this
point jog/inch into lock position on the bow roller.
7. We recommend that you carry a spare rope and anchor for safety reasons.
