Important
The motor is not designed for continuous
extended use. Avoid unnecessary unloaded
running of the motor as this will generate
heat, reducing the running time of the motor.
Installation
Mounting of an Above Deck Compact winch
on a vertical surface is not recommended, as it
increases exposure to potential problems of
excessive moisture and water ingress which
could lead to damage not covered by
warranty. The motor/gearbox unit of any
Above Deck Compact Electric Winch is more
exposed to the elements than a below deck
installation which keeps the motor unit and
gearbox more protected. It is important to
take reasonable precautions to protect the unit
from unnecessary exposure, and carry out
regular seasonal maintenance including the
lubrication of the motor shaft seal. This is
just good seamanship. On commercial and
military vessels, it is common to see exposed
equipment with electric motors and gearboxes
fitted with covers when not in use or to
protect them from heavy spray, etc.
Equipment on yachts deserves the same
proper care.
INCORRECT INSTALLATION WILL
INVALIDATE WARRANTY.
Guideline for use
Please read the following prior to get the best
use of your new Andersen Compact Winch
motor.
Notice safety precautions
Under no circumstances should children be
allowed to use an electric winch.
Main power
When not in use, switch off main power
supply to your Compact motor
Use of an electrified winch
With a motorised winch you have lots of power in
your control; therefore you must be careful and
have attention when using the motorised winch.
The winch will only stop when reaching the
maximum pull limit.
Function
The Compact motor system gives you an
opportunity of having a various line speed on the
sheet. The more you push the control button down –
the more power and line speed you will get.
Control switch with step less speed control
The switch gives the opportunity of step less control
of line speed, simply by pushing the button more or
less down. The more you push the button down, the
more power you release to the motor.
Control switch signal codes
The motor will stop and the switch control light will
flash and the motor stops if:
The winch max load is exceeded.
The motor has an automatic overload cut-off
device, which switches off the motor when the
load reaches a predetermined level. The motor
is automatically reset and can be reactivated
when the load drops below the cut-off level.
The motor max temperature is exceeded.
The motor is deactivated automatically when it
reaches max temperature. Function will revert to
normal once it has cooled down.
Use by more than one control switch.
If your motor has two control switches, only one
can be operated at a time, the one which is out
of control will flash if you try to operate this
together with the other switch.
If the run time is too long.
The flashing light indicates that the winch has
been running for more than
maximum secure run time, and therefore it
stops. If needed you can continue by
reactivating the control switch again.
