Tips for using your WindTrak:
- Always assemble your WindTrak with Locktite® or use a silicone seal on the threads to eliminate the possibility of the unit unscrewing in use from vibration.
- Prior to unstepping your mast, take your WindTrak down first. Periodically check the assembly screws holding your WindTrak together.
- Lubrication is never needed, but years of salt or dirt build-up should be rinsed off with fresh water occasionally.
