GENERAL INFORMATION
Due to the best choice of materials and high precision in manufacturing, we recommend, for
normal use, only to dismantle, clean and lubricate the winch once every second year. Under
extensive use, such as racing, charter or blue water sailing, we recommend to lubricate the winch
once every year.
We strongly recommend always using ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE, when lubricating your
winch. ANDERSEN WINCH GREASE is a high quality silicone/Teflon grease product.
Most other types of grease, including "marine grease" are not suitable for lubrication of winches.
Non-suitable grease products can cause malfunction, which could result in fatal injuries for the
user and others.
Pawl arm springs should be replaced every second year. Spare arm springs and other parts that
may be required are included in the ANDERSEN Service Kit. Please refer to the service instruction
for the Service Kit suitable for the specific winch.
When the winch handle is not in use but the winch is under load, we recommend, from a safety
point of view, to remove the winch handle from the winch.
To ensure correct function of the self-tailing unit, only use recommended line sizes. When using
the winch with mooring lines DO NOT use the self-tailing function and be sure that the mooring line
is not in contact with the self-tailing arm.
To ensure the best possible functioning of the winch, we recommend that the winch is placed in
accordance with the line entry shown below.
Be also aware that self-tailing arm is positioned correctly. We recommend having the self-tailing
arm positioned within the shaded area. On 12ST and 28ST the position of the self-tailing arm is
fixed, making it very important to establish the proper location of the holes prior to drilling these in
the deck. On all other models, the self-tailing arm can be placed in several different positions after
having installed the winch.
