1 Make sure that the hydraulic
magnetic circuit breaker is activated.
2 - Make sure that the clutch is well
tightened and the brake is disengaged.
Take out the manoeuvre handle from
the drum or gipsy.
3 Disengage the chain stopper and
safety stops.
4 – Press the UP button from the control
at your disposal until the anchor reaches
its position inside the bow roller.
5 Deactivate the hydraulic magnetic
circuit breaker.
6 – Fix the chain with the chain stopper.
In this way a potential damage of the
anchor windlass will be avoided as well
as unexpected chain releases.
If possible, do not carry
out the anchor recovery operation
by relying only on the onboard
batteries. Start the motor of the
boat (or the generator) to obtain
the necessary electromotive force.

To safeguard the anchor windlass, the
hydraulic magnetic circuit breaker is
sized so that it comes into action when
the anchor windlass is subjected to
higher loads than those for which it has
been designed. Should it get released
owing to an overload reactivate it again
and wait some minutes before operating
it; waiting for the operation after an
overload is necessary to allow the
circuits to cool and recover their
functionalities.
The hydraulic magnetic
circuit breaker does not protect
against an excessive increase in
the motor temperature due to a
prolonged operation of the
anchor windlass. Therefore, give
the motor the necessary time to
cool, to avoid possible damages to
the motor thereof.

Make sure that the clutch is engaged.
Disengage the brake, chain stopper, and
safety stops. Insert the manoeuvre
handle into the hand-wheel and turn
clockwise by overcoming the strength
of the spring contained in the reducer.
In case of deep sea, the effort will turn
out to be significant.
