V3 002 10mm DIN 766, Campbell 3/8" S4, 5/16" G40 12/14/16mm 16mm 1 Link

N.B.
14mm rope is strength-comparable and splice-compatible to 8mm Grade 40 DIN766 Calibrated Chain
16mm rope is a little under strength compared with 10mm Grade 40 Calibarated Anchor Chain.
16mm and 18mm rope are splice-compatible with 10mm DIN766/ISO Grade 40 Calibrated Anchor Chain
We do splice 16mm diameter anchor rope into 8mm Chain on request but it is a border line tight fit in the link.

FastFit™ Feature***

Normally, gearbox alignment to the deck unit is a critical part of the installation process, but Lewmar have developed a special hassle-saving clamping system which perfectly aligns the deck unit and motor/gearbox enabling one person to fit them together on their own.

First, fix the deck unit, then slide the gearbox up the shaft, swing the FastFit™ clamp shut and tighten up the bronze nut - the motor/gearbox can be rotated and fixed in increments of 45°.

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 gypsy as it is a high wear item and will last longer if properly used. When re-assembling the cone and gypsy, add a small smear of grease to the contact surfaces.
  • Check mounting studs after first two or three recoveries and regularly thereafter.

Annual Servicing

  • Check electric cables for damage. Repair/renew as required.
  • Strip the above deck components, clean and lightly grease.
  • Check motor/gearbox for corrosion, clean and repaint with a suitable marine grade oil-based enamel paint.
