If you are using a mast jack not provided by Axxon you should contact Axxon to get
confirmation of the jack pressures to be read on your manometer.
Tools list:
-
Full set of hex keys
-
full set of keys
-
30cm long adjustable wrench
-
Electronic level
Preparation
a. Be sure that running backstay, vang, halyards and mainsheet are completely loose at all
stages until final tune is complete.
b.
For external mast jack, place the mast jack bar and the jack.
c. Connect the pump to the jack. Check oil leaks in the connector.
Rake adjustment
a.
Check the waterline to be sure the boat is floating correctly.
b. Place all shims.
c. Have a minimum tension on the verticals.
d. Adjust the forestay's length to have the rake required by the architect. Use electronic
level.
V1 adjustment
a. Adjust the V1's turnbuckles at half-stroke.
b. Jack mast up until you reach the specified pressure.
c. Verify that all the diagonals are loose. Otherwise loosen them.
d. Measure the height "H" between mast lowest part and the mast base. The difference
between "H" and the thickness of plates is the distance to tighten or loosen the V1's
turnbuckle.
e. Once the adjustment is done, double check that your last shim is getting in place when
you are reaching the recommended pressure (otherwise, readjust the V1's turnbuckle).
f.
Check the pre-bend and the straightness of the mast laterally.
g. Remove 15mm of shim
h. Verify that when the mast is jack down, it touch the mast base on starboard and port
side at the same time
D1 adjustment
a. Make sure the mast have been de jacked about 15mm.
b. Hand tighten D1's
c. Jack the mast. If the pressure exceeds the recommended values before you are able to
get all the shims in place, you need to de-jack to open the D1 turnbuckle. If, on the other
hand, you are able to get all the shims in place before reaching the recommended
pressure, you need to de-jack to tighten the turnbuckle
