The circuit diagram shows the distribution
bridges and electrical junctions that have to be
checked first. The cable ends are different
colours (see circuit diagram on Pages 38-39).
When disconnecting a load, unclamp the
battery negative pole. Some switches and
cables are left exposed.
Servicing the winches
The modern HARKEN winches are of a
simple, robust design. Nevertheless, the
bearings will need to be re-greased at least
once a year. Grease that has turned to resin
can only have an adverse effect on the
functioning of the winch. Disassembly and
reassembly of the winches is as follows:
Remove the securing screw with a large
screwdriver and then remove the entire head
and self-tailing mechanism from the winch
base.
Make sure that the detent pawls do not spring
out, and that the pawl springs are correctly
seated on reassembly.
The documentation supplied should include
two A4 sheets in English, containing an
exploded drawing of the winch construction.
The method of cleaning the winch is described
in the diagrams on the back.

Autopilot
If the boat is equipped with an autopilot, then it
is soon given a name and regarded as an extra
member of the crew. The autopilot is
unbeatable, in terms of stamina and
concentration.
Please familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
operating instructions. Apart from the control
panel, virtually all the components of the
AUTOHELM ST 6000 have been fitted with the
computer in the space below the steering
pedestal, comprising the Linear Drive,
Repeater, Gyro-plus Sensor and Computer.
Access to these components can be gained by
opening the hatch at the foot of the after cabin.
The Fluxgate Compass is mounted on the
bulkhead in the washroom/toilet compartment.
A small paintbrush dipped in petroleum or
benzene will make the job of cleaning the
winch components easier.
