EASY ORIENTATION OF THE FURLING GUIDE
9
C – INSTALLATION ADVICE BEFORE USE
- Protect the sail against UV and sea water;
- Anticipate foredeck handling. Secure yourself to the boat by a tether line;
- Before hoisting check that the asymmetric Spinnaker furler is clear of any other halyards and lines;
- See with your Facnor dealer how to fit, tighten and block the furling line.
For the good functioning of the anti-twist luff rope, furl and unfurl always in the same way (clock wise or
anti-clockwise). You can mark the furling line or use a winch block.

USING AND FITTING THE FURLING LINE
The Facnor hook device allows to quickly release the spliced furling line
from the drum. This clever system is mainly fitted with a stainless steel guide
and a rubber ring. With this concept designed by Facnor the furling line can
be left fitted on the deck. Available identically on both Gennaker (FX) and
asymmetric Spinnaker furlers (Asym-FX).

part of the furling line between the right hook (C) and slide the line under the
hook on the right hand side.
3 - 4 - Pull the B part of the furling line to progressively introduce the line under-
neath the rubber ring until to reach the left hook.
5 - 6 - Put down the B part of the furling line and slide the B part of the furling
line underneath the left hooks (C').
