Cosmetic Care & Maintenance

WINDLASS

WINDLASS CONCEPT 1 PARTS LISTING
The windlass needs periodic maintenance to keep it in
top running condition. Every 6 months the manufacturer
recommends that the unit be disassembled and all the
above deck parts be washed down with fresh water.
Lightly oil (SAE 10) the seal, shaft, cone clutch and
spline. Ensure that the base, below the gipsy, is cleaned
well and the sealing ring is checked. Grease the threads
on the chain pipe cover and stripper screws before re-
assembly.
The bearing is self lubricating and should not require
servicing.
Below the deck check regularly the condition of the
motor/gear box and terminals and re-apply grease when
necessary. The motor/gear box is two part epoxy painted
to protect it against corrosion as it is constructed of steel
and lives in the harshest environment on your craft. If
corrosion on the motor is evident, clean and repaint with
marine grade oil based enamel paint.
