Usage - Warning - Quick RIDER 1700 W Manual Del Usuario

WARNING
WARNING: stay clear of the chains, ropes and gypsy. Make sure the electric motor is off when windlass is
used manually (even when using the handle to disengage the clutch). In fact people with windlass remote
controls (hand-held remote control or radio-controlled systems) might accidentally operate it.
WARNING: secure the chain with a device before starting the navigation.
WARNING: do not operate the windlass by using the electrical power when the handle is inserted in the
drum or into the gypsy cover.
WARNING: Quick recommend using a circuit breaker designed for direct current (DC) with delayed-ac-
tion (thermal-magnetic or hydraulic-magnetic) to protect the motor supply line from overheating or short
circuits. The circuit breaker can be used to cut off power to the windlass control circuit and so avoid ac-
cidental activation.
CLUTCH USE
The clutch (10 and 12) provides a link between the gypsy and the main shaft (5 or 6). The clutch can be released
(disengagement) by using the handle (1) which, when inserted in the bush of the drum or in the gypsy cover (3
or 4), must be turned counter-clockwise. The clutch will be re-engaged by turning it clockwise (engagement).
WEIGHING THE ANCHOR
Turn on the engine. Make sure the clutch is engaged and remove the handle. Press the UP button on the control
provided.
If the windlass stops and the hydraulic magnetic switch (or thermal cutout) has not tripped, wait a few seconds
and try again (avoid keeping the button pressed).
If the hydraulic magnetic switch, has tripped, reset it and wait a few minutes before weighing anchor once
again.
If, after a number of attempts, the windlass is still blocked, we suggest to move the boat to release the anchor.
Check the upward movement of the chain for the last few meters in order to avoid damages to the bow.
CASTING THE ANCHOR
The anchor can be cast by using the electrical control or manually. To operate manually, the clutch must be
disengaged allowing the gypsy to revolve and letting the chain fall into the water. To slow down the chain, the
handle must be turned clockwise.
To cast the anchor by using the electrical power, press the DOWN button on the control provided. In this manner,
anchor casting is under control and the chain unwind evenly.
In order to avoid any stress on the windlass -once the boat is anchored- fasten the chain or secure it in place
with a rope.
