Safety Notice

WARNING!IMPORTANT: Read these notes before continuing.Windlass generalAt all times it is the responsibility of the boat user to ensure that the anchor and rode are properly stowed for the prevailing sea conditions. This is particularly important with igh-speed powerboats because an anchor accidentally deploying while underway can cause considerable damage. An anchor windlass is mounted in the most exposed position on a vessel and is thus subject to severe atmospheric attack resulting in a possibility of corrosion in excess of that experienced with most other items of deck equipment. As the windlass may only be used infrequently, the risk of corrosion is further increased. It is essential that the windlass is regularly examined, operated, and given any necessary maintenance.Please ensure that you thoroughly understand the operation and safety requirements of the windlass before commencing the installation. Only persons who are completely familiar with the controls and those who have been fully made aware of the correct use of the windlass should be allowed to use it. If there is any doubt of how to install or operate this unit please seek advice from a suitably qualified engineer.

  • Windlasses used incorrectly could cause harm to equipment or crew.
  • Windlasses should be used with care and treated with respect.
  • Boating, like many other activities, can be hazardous. Even the correct selection, maintenance, and use of proper equipment cannot eliminate the potential for danger, serious injury or death.
  • Lewmar windlasses are designed and supplied for anchor control in marine applications and are not to be used in conjunction with any other use.
  • Keep limbs, fingers, clothing, and hair clear of windlass and anchor rope/chain and anchor during operation. Severe bodily harm would result.
  • Ensure there are no swimmers or divers nearby when dropping anchor.
  • When the Windlass is not in use the anchor must be tied off onto a cleat or equivalent strong point to prevent damage to the boat.
  • Windlass must not be used as the sole means of securing the anchor to the bow fitting especially under storm conditions. Anchors should be independently secured to prevent accidental release.
  • Classification Societies require that a vessel lying at anchor must have its anchor rope/chain secured to a chain stopper or other suitable independent strong point.
  • A windlass should never be used as a mooring bollard, the anchor rode MUST be secured to a mooring cleat, chain stopper or other designated strong point. Using the windlass to secure the road will damage the windlass.
  • Do not use windlass for ANY purpose other than deployment and recovery of the anchor.
  • Do not wrap the chain around a capstan barrel or drum where fitted.
  • A circuit breaker/isolator should always be used with this windlass to protect the motor and cables from overheating and damage.
  • Always switch off this windlass at the circuit breaker/isolator when not in use.
  • It is the unavoidable responsibility of the owner or master or another responsible party to assess the risk of any operation on the vessel.
  • Windlass must not be operated whilst under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Fitting

  • This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the instructions contained in this manual. Failure to do so could result in poor product performance, personal injury, and/or damage to your boat.
  • Consult the boat manufacturer if you have any doubt about the strength or suitability of the mounting location.

Electrical

  • Make sure you have switched off the power before you start installing this product.
  • This product requires installation by a suitably qualified electrical engineer.

Installation

Basic requirementsEach installation requires the following tools:WINDLASS INSTALLATION

  • An appropriate marine sealant
  • Electric drill and 10mm (3

WIRING INSTALLATION

  • Crimping Pliers / Wire Stripper
  • Suitable electrical cable and crimp terminals/8”) drill bit
  • 76mm (3”) Hole Saw

AccessoriesUse only genuine Lewmar parts and accessories to ensure top performance and eliminate the risk of voiding your warranty.Gypsy SuitabilityGypsies fitted to the Pro-Series / Pro-Fish windlasses are ideally suited to handling our factory-made Rope/Chain combination rodes, which consist of rope spliced to a chain tail. See §2 Specifications for details.Ropes used must be windlass grade, medium lay nylon. Ropes from different manufacturers have wide variations in stretch and consistency in diameter. Therefore, rope and chain from other manufacturers may require some experimentation to determine the optimum size.Should you have difficulty in matching a gypsy to your chain please consult your local agent or our international network of distributors.Above deck preparationIMPORTANT – Plan location carefully and allow for the following:

  1. Use the drilling template provided and choose an appropriate position with reference to the vessel’s bow roller and the chain locker below. Allow for the rotation of the manual operating wrench handle
  2. If the deck is not flat, a suitable mounting pad may be required to take up camber or sheer.NOTE: If in doubt about the suitable construction of the pad consult a qualified marine engineer.The deck is an integral component of the windlass it has to secure the windlass and be strong enough to cope with the high torque stresses involved in recovering the anchor. Decks that are thin, or of foam or balsa laminate construction, will require reinforcement in order to spread the loads that will be applied to the deck while the wind; ass is in use.
  3. Lewmar recommends a minimum deck thickness of 25mm (1”), M8 Studs suit deck, and packing thickness of 25-60mm (1” – 21 /4 ”).

Below deck preparationIMPORTANT: The positioning of the windlass must be checked prior to cutting for deck/hull and bulkhead clearance.Lead from the roller should be fed horizontally back to the top of the gypsy and along its centerline within +6˚. There must be sufficient vertical fall (minimum of 300 mm /12” at all times) for the chain or rope when hauling in.WARNING! Failure to provide minimum vertical fall will cause jamming.Above deck fittingUsing the template and after you have checked all the above and below deck requirements cut the following holes: Using a 10mm ( 3 /8 ”) diameter drill bit, make the three holes for the mounting studs and two for the motor cables. With a 76mm (3”) diameter hole saw, make one hole for the rod to pass through.

  1. When all the holes have been made, remove the template. To help avoid water absorption by the deck, apply an appropriate marine sealant to the freshly cut hole edges.
  2. Assemble and tighten studs into the base until they bottom out in their holes. Studs have a flat for spanner location. Position the flats of the studs nearest the base of the windlass.
  3. Place the base mat in position on the deck. Optionally, apply a suitable sealant to the base of the windlass, any mounting pad or around the studs.

Under deck fastening

  1. Fit windlass to the deck. Trim the studs back to 6mm (1 /4 ”) below the fully tightened nuts to prevent snagging anchor rope/chain if necessary. NOTE: If using silicone or another rubbery type sealant, it is advisable to allow curing of the sealant before final tightening of the mounting nuts.DO NOT use a permanent adhesive/sealant eg.5200

Loading rope/chainFor safety and performance, Lewmar recommends the use of matched Lewmar anchor rodes.WARNING! Isolate (turn off) the windlass using a circuit breaker/isolator.

  1. Pull out control arm.
  2. Feed anchor rope/chain into entry hole. Tie off to a suitable strong point in the anchor locker.
  3. Align rope/chain in gypsy. Release control arm and wrap rope/chain around gypsy.
  4. Turn on the breaker and power load the rest of the anchor rope/chain.

Electrical wiring

Electric cable selectionLewmar recommends the installer source and installs cable that meets the requirements of the standards and regulations relevant to the installation and codes of practice.The cable table gives recommended cable sizes based on the total length of cable required, from the battery, following the route of the cables.DO NOT confuse cable length with the length of the vessel

CABLE SIZING FOR LENGTH OF CABLE RUN

up to 14 m6 mm² up to 40 ft10 AWG 15 – 24 m10 mm² 41 – 66 ft8 AWG

Windlass performance is directly related to cable size and length. Voltage drop over the complete wiring run must not exceed 10%.WiringPlan the installation to suit the controls and give the operator a full view of the windlass. The wiring system should be of the fully insulated type, which avoids possible electrolytic corrosion problems. We recommend the use of type III stranded, tinned copper wire with copper crimp terminals. Most modern installations are negative return (negative ground) but polarity should be checked.Overload protection, in the form of the circuit breaker provided, must be built into the windlass wiring circuit.

  • Circuit breaker supplied:Pro-Serie/Fish 700 – 50A (Part No 68000348)Pro-Serie/Fish 1000 and Pro-Fish Pb – 70A (Part No 68000240)
  • The circuit breaker should be positioned close to the battery in a dry, readily accessible place.
  • The breaker must be manually reset should an overload occur that causes it to trip to the off position.WARNING!
  • If you are not sure you understand these guidelines, seek professional help. Ensure that the installation complies with USCG, ABYC, NMMA or other local regulations.

Control switch installationThe unit is supplied with

  • Guarded rocker switch (product ref 68000593)

Lock the clutch by turning the drive cap clockwise and engage the anchor locks.WARNING! Always remove wrench handle after use
  3. To return the windlass back to powered operation lock the clutch by rotating the capstan drive cap clockwise until tight and remove the wrench handle.
  4. Engage the circuit breaker/isolator and press the up button.NOTE: If the clutch nut is not tight the internal clutch mechanism will rotate freely and not engage the drive to the capstan.See §6.3 for powered operation

Manual anchor recoveryWARNING! Isolate (Turn off) the windlass using a circuit breaker/isolator.WARNING! Trapping, crushing, or entanglement danger whilst operating windlass manually or under power

  1. Ensure the capstan drive cap is tight so the clutch is locked.
  2. Release any anchor locks and when safe insert the Lewmar wrench or a standard 12mm (1/2”) drive rachet into the socket end of the driveshaft on the opposite site of the windlass to the gypsy.
  3. Using the wrench, turn the driveshaft clockwise to retrieve the anchor.WARNING! Always remove wrench handle after use
  4. Once the anchor is retrieved, remove the wrench handle and ensure it is adequately secured to an independent strong point.

Power-up/down3a – Pro-Fish

To release anchor:

  1. Check unit is not in manual mode and the plunger is disengaged/up position.
  2. Release any anchor locks.
  3. Engage the circuit breaker/isolator.When releasing the anchor, press the DOWN button for 2 seconds until the anchor is under freefall. If the clutch was left in a locked position the anchor will move almost immediately, if unlocked it could take several seconds to fully re-engage the internal clutch.NOTE: Pressing the DOWN button for over 5 seconds will result in a longer clutch re-engagement time during the next UP command).If using a rope/chain rode, motor astern to create the desired scope. Once the scope has been created press the UP button continuously until freefall stops. It normally takes several seconds to fully re-engage the internal clutch mechanism, locking the windlass.NOTE: Failure to lock the windlass clutch could result in rope/chain creeping out.To retrieve anchor:
  4. Press the UP button continuously to retrieve the anchor.

  3. Engage the circuit breaker/isolator.Press DOWN button.To retrieve anchor:
  4. Press the UP button continuously to retrieve the anchor.Note: If the clutch nut is not tight the internal clutch will rotate freely and not engage the drive to the capstan.

Windlass operating proceduresThis is an anchor recovery device. DO NOT use the windlass to pull the boat to the anchor as it will damage the mechanism. Vessels at anchor will snub on the rode and this can cause slippage or apply excessive loads to the windlass. The best practice is to use a bollard or other strong point when at anchor and use the vessel’s engines to break the anchor free. Otherwise, the excessive load will cause the freefall function to seize and can cause damage to the gearbox.When retrieving anchors do not overload or stall in the windlass.The rode should be secured directly to a bollard, Sampson post, or cleat and a chain secured by a chain stopper.

When anchoring, power rode out allowing the vessel to take up stern away preventing the rode from tangling with an anchor. Use this method for mooring stern first to a jetty.To aid recovery, under power, move the vessel towards anchor but not over and beyond,  as this can cause damage to the topside. As the anchor approaches the vessel use careful adjustments of controls to avoid the damaging vessel, start and stop the windlass to bring the anchor slowly into the bow roller.Pulling the last bit of the rode and anchor into the bow roller at full speed can damage the boat, bow roller, and windlass. When stowing it is important to make sure, particularly with rode lines that there is at least 300mm (12”) of free space below the windlass (See §4.5). Stop and check during the stowing process to determine if there is sufficient space on your vessel. If the rode pile is too close to the underside of the windlass, re-distribute the rode away from directly below the windlass. If the rode gets too close to the underside of the windlass it will cause problems with good rode recovery and may cause damage to the line.

Servicing

WARNING! Isolate the windlass using a circuit breaker/isolatorWARNING! Ensure rode is adequately secured to an independent strong pointServicing scheduleThe service period is determined by the frequency of use. Professional users will need to carry out these operations more often than weekend users. Before commencing any work on this or any other electrical product, isolated it from the power source.Bedding in period:When new there are some areas that will need frequent checking. If no movement is found they can be inspected less often.

  • Examine all electrical connections, to make sure they are sound and corrosion hasn’t set in. Tighten if necessary and protect if required.
  • Check mounting studs are firmly clamped and tighten if required.

After use:

  • Wash down the windlass using freshwater.
  • Ensure rode is at least 12” (300mm) below the windlass
  • Check anchor locker drain
  • Check rode and splice for wear.

Annually or more often if the frequent user:

  • Examine all electrical connections, to make sure they are sound and corrosion hasn’t set in. Tighten if necessary and protect if required.
  • Check mounting studs are firmly clamped and tighten if required.
  • Check rode and splice for wear.
  • Check gypsy as it is a high wear item (For service and replacement see §7.2)
  • Check main case (19) for damage particularly around the seal (24) and cover (18)

Gypsy replacement/service

Troubleshooting

  1. Anchor rode pays out independently while windlass is not in use.• This problem is a result of not securing the anchor rode combined with the gypsy drive cap being slack. Tighten the gypsy drive cap using the winch handle and always secure the anchor rode independently of the windlass when not in use.
  2. Failure to operate or sluggish operation.• The majority of these problems are electrical in nature. It is essential that the proper voltage be maintained. The proper voltage on a 12 Volt system is 13.5 Volts, constant low voltage will damage the motor.Ensure electrical cable size is large enough to handle the current draw and keep voltage drop within acceptable limits.• Check control switches, connections, battery condition, isolator switch, fuse, and motor for operation failure.
  3. Failure to operate.• Is there a voltage at the input terminals to the contactor and switches. Check the circuit breaker/ isolator switch and any fuses.• Operate the switch. Is there voltage at the positive switch terminal on the solenoid? If not, the switch (or its wiring), is defective.• Keep the switch activated. Is there voltage at the main output terminal on the contactor? If not check the contactor coil ground circuit. If okay, replace the contactor.• Check the voltage at the motor. If a voltage of at least 12.5 volts is present and the motor does not operate, the motor is defective.
