  • Page 10: Installation

    3 Installation Installation of a Seldén winch must be carried out by a competent installer who has read and understood this installation manual, the purpose and function of the winch and has checked the loads, winch sizing and moun- ting requirements prior to installation. Before installation, verify that installation can be carried out without damaging the interior of the boat.
  • Page 11: Winch Orientation

    Winch orientation To allow for the best performance and longevity of the winch the mounting orientation must be correct with regards to the direction of the line. The correct orientation is shown in the figure below. If the winch has multiple uses, such as combined halyard and spinnaker trim- ming, the winch should be position with regards to the highest load.
  • Page 12: Line Entry Angle

    Line entr y angle To minimize the risk of override, the line should enter the winch in accordance with the picture below. 5-10° Fasteners The winch could either be mounted by through deck screws with washers and nuts or, if the boat has purpose made metal plates laminated into the deck structure, be threaded into these.
  • Page 13: Mounting The E-Winch

    Mounting the E-winch Template E40 Template E40 Use the supplied drilling template to mark the center of the large hole. Drill the large hole, Seldén recom- mends using a ø 102-105 mm hole saw to make the hole. Feed the cables and the motor pack through the center hole.
  • Page 14 Remove the drum. Make sure the roller bearings remain on the winch base. Put the S-winch base on top of the motor pack. Orientate the winch assembly according to section 3.2 Winch orientation. Remove the winch base without changing the orientation of the motor pack.
  • Page 15 Mark the fastening holes using the motor pack as a template. See table in section 3.4 Fasteners, for marking drill recommendations. SEALANT Remove the motor pack and drill the holes through deck according to the intended fastening method. Set table in section 3.4 Fasteners, for drill size recommendations.

The self-tailing arm can now be rotated to allow the line to feed properly. Be sure to refit the self- tailing arm correctly in the grooves on the locator bracket.
  • Page 19: Operation

    4 Operation Electric operation Apply 2-3 turns on the winch drum and pull any slack in the line. Fewer or more turns may be required depending on the conditions. More turns on the winch drum increases the risk of override, when pulling the slack. Add more turns if required and then feed the line over the self-tailing arm and lock it in the self-tailing jaws.
  • Page 20: Manual Operation
