SHEET WINCHES AND MANOEUVRE WINCHES (MANUAL OR
ELECTRIC) (OPTIONAL EXTRA)
The circuit breakers of the electric winches are in the service room of
the foredeck.
Out of a concern for safety, all the electric winches can be switched
off with a switch on the portside helm station (the capstans and
windlass can also be switched off).
RECOMMENDATION
Have at least 3 turns on the winch.
Electrical winches generate an extremely powerful
force and you should use them with much care.
Never force when you find a jamming point.
When using the winches, keep your hands away.
After use, shut the switch covers.
WARNING
Refer to the manufacturer's instructions to remove
the winches and put them back.
Improper refitting may result in accidents (for
example : kick of the crank handle).
