Lewmar Recommended Windlass Maintenance
Regular Servicing
- Wash down the windlass using fresh water.
- Examine all electrical connections for corrosion, clean and lightly grease.
- Check anchor locker drain to avoid water damage to motor/gearbox.
- If anchor locker fills with water, check motor is dry and free of rust.
- Check anchor rode splice for wear.

- Check mounting studs after first two or three recoveries and regularly thereafter.
