SAFETY INFORMATION
•This product is not designed as a strong point to fasten your anchor rode. Fast the anchor rode to a strong point such as mooring cleat or similar.
•The vessel’s engine should always be running and used to assist in the recovery of the ground tackle.
•Always install the properly rated circuit breaker to protect the electric circuit and the motor from overheating and damage.
•Always turn off the main switch when the windlass is not in use to prevent accidental engagement.
•Always keep hands and feet clear of an operating windlass.If a jam occurs turn the windlass off at the main switch before clearing the anchor rode.
•Do not use the windlass for different purposes it was designed for.
WINDLASS WIRING MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
Below there are the requirements for all the components of the windlass electric plant depending from the motor nominal power .
1500 W 12V 1500 W 24V
A-Battery capacity 250 Ah 150 Ah
B-Power cables size 50 mm² - 1 AWG 35 mm² - 2 AWG
C-Lofrans Circuit breaker (slow time/current curve) 125 A 70 A
A.Battery of lower capacity decrease the windlass performances and are rapidly subjected to wear and tear.
B.This size must be increased when the length of the positive plus the negative cables are more than 25 mts. Use marine grade tinned copper wire.
C.The Lofrans circuit breaker protects the power line from short circuit and the windlass motor in case of overheating. It must be kept dry and installed in accessible place to be
prompty reactivated when it trips. It can be also used to isolate the windlass from the remote controls as we strongly suggest to avoid accidental engagement.
All the switches must be wired in parallel.We strongly recommend to have a minimum of two switches to operate the windlass in case one of them gets damage.
All Lofrans equipment is CE approved.
INSTALLATION GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Proper installation of the windlass is critical and these essential conditions listed below need be fully satisfied :
Fig.1 The gipsy of the windlass must be in line with the bow roller.
Fig.2 The deck must be flat. The structure of the boat must be adeguate to the load that the windlass is able to pull. If necessary reinforce the deck with a backing pad to spread the
stress.
Fig.3 When determining the position of the windlass , it is critical to locate it directly above the deepest area of the chain locker. As the chain falls into the chain locker , it must be
maximized because when the chain is stored. The chain tends to gather in the shape of a pyramid , which reduce the available space. If the chain pyramid falls , then overlaps
may occur, resulting in jams. The deeper the locker , the less likely this will occur. You must have a minimum of A=12” between the underside of the deck and the top of the
heaped chain. The chain locker shape is really important to limit the pyramid problem. The chain coming from the bow roller can be inclinated up to 5 degrees.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Fig.4 Carefully position the template provided to the deck . Mark and drill the holes as indicated (see Fig.A). The forward , leading edge of the chain hole should be dressed with a
45° degree angle. A drum rasp or Dremil Tool™ will be helpful. Sand smooth all edges and seal (see Fig.B). Clean the deck area and position the deck gasket supplied.
Fig.5 Loosen the 4 hex nuts (227) to separate the topworks from the gearbox and motor. Position the topworks the deck aligning the gasket properly.
Fig.6Join the gearbox to the windlasstopworks by inserting the key (450) of the main shaft into the key way of the gearbox. Align the motor away from the chain pipe.
Fig.7 Fasten a washer ,lock washer and hex nut to the remaining deck studs. Tighten all hardware properly. Connect the cables from the battery to the electric motor as shown in the
electric diagram.
TEST PROCEDURE
ATTENTION ! DO NOT OPERATE THE WINDLASS WITHOUT THE ROPE-CHAIN INTO THE GIPSY TO AVOID TO DAMAGE THE PART 998 (FINGER)
Fig.8 Introduce the rope-chain into the gipsy . Please take care to keep hands and feet away of the incoming rope-chain.
Fig.9 Turn on the remote control. Operate the UP switch. The chain will be recovered. Release the UP switch.Operate the DOWN switch. The chain will be released. If the windlass
runs in wrong direction change over the UP and DOWN wires at the control box.
Fig.10 After using the windlass , we strongly recommend that the nuts are checked again to ensure they are well tightened.
