Operating:
1. Rotate the 7-1558 to the “DOWN” position to pay out or free fall the
anchor. Rotate to the “UP” position to retrieve the anchor. Make
sure the switch is rotated to “OFF” when not in use.
Note:
You can set the rotating “Free Fall” switch (in the right hand side of
windlass) by a flat screw driver to be a “on” (free fall) mode or
“off” (Power Out) mode.
Note:
Please free fall the anchor to the bottom in one fall.
(Do not
release the control switch during the anchor’s fall.)
Note: Running-In Gears:
It is normal in the initial period (under load) to observe a noise, a lack
of power or circuit breaker to pop often. This is caused due to the
worm gears Running-In. After about 10 uses, the gears will become
smooth, resulting in a regain in power and a reduction of noise.
2. For free fall model only: when releasing the anchor, rotate the
switch “DOWN”
once
to free fall the anchor to the sea bed (clutch
will stay at open), until the current has drifted the boat to a desired
location and the anchor has cast firmly in the sea bed, rotate the
switch “UP” once to engage the clutch.
The included circuit breaker is a push button
style. If the button bounces, it means the motor
is overloaded. Press the button once to reset.
