IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING SAFETY ASPECTS OF YOUR ANCHOR WINDLASS
WARNING ! your windlass is not designed as a strong point to fasten your anchor rode (chain or rope) to when the boat is laying on it's anchor and
surging. The anchor rode must be fastened to a strong point such as mooring cleat, bollard or chain storage.
WARNING ! do not exceed a pulling load more than the rating of your windlass. The vessel's engine be running and used to assist in the anchor
recovery.
WARNING ! always install the properly rated circuit breaker to protect the electric plant and electric motor from overheating and damages.
WARNING ! when not in use be sure to keep the anchor windlass circuit switch in the Off position to prevent accidental engagement of the windlass.
WARNING ! always keep your hands, feet and fingers clear of an operating windlass. If a jam occurs use extreme caution and turn off the windlass
circuit before attending to clearing the anchor rode.
WARNING ! do not use the windlass for different purposes it was designed for.

If the windlass is fed by an improper battery , the performances are going to get worse and the battery will be subject rapidly to wear and tear.
We recommend to use excellent quality cables , insulated and heat resistant.
The cables section have to be increased of 30% - 50% approx, when the length of the extended cables , positive and negative , is greater than 10 mts.
or 29'.
The cables connected to the electric controls , shown on the wiring diagram as a thin line , have a section of 1.5 mm² or 16 AWG approx.
The circuit breaker protects from dangerous short circuits , protects the windlass motor , avoiding damages due to anomalous absorption and interrupts
the tension , when desired. The circuit breaker must be installed in a dry , accessible and visible position. For safety reasons we strongly recommend
that the windlass and remote controls are isolated when boating and reactivated when anchoring.
If possible place the control box preferably in a dry room on board. Install at least two remote controls to drive the windlass in case one of them gets
damaged.
Install a circuit breaker of 5 Ampere for the protection of electric remote controls.
We recommend You to use original LOFRANS' components only, which are designed for sea water. LOFRANS equipment conforms to
European Directives, products are CE approved.
