Control Head Repairs
For proper operation of the control head, avoid the following modifications:
•
Do not use another type of bearing as a replacement for the ball bearing.
•
Do not use lock wire as a substitute for the swage blocks on the tripline.
•
Do not shorten or change the portion of the tripline which attaches to the reel.
•
Do not use threaded bolts as a substitute for clevis pins.
•
Do not modify the size or angles of the catch, other than as recommended.
•
Do not tighten control head suspension bolts over 5 ft·lb (6.5 N·m).
Tripline Replacement
The tripline should be examined daily for kinks, frays or loose swages. Replace the tripline as soon as
any deterioration is observed.
To remove the tripline, follow these procedures:
1.
If possible, secure the head in a clamp, as shown.
2.
If the tripline is not broken above the trip block and
the spring reel is functional, push the solenoid up
releasing the catch and pull the tripline out to its full
extent.
Then, allow the reel to retract until the three
holes are at the top.
NOTICE
It is recommended that you study how the tripline is installed before removing it. This will make it
easier to understand the following directions.
