Hi All,
i have a Maxwell 500 VW windlass mounted vertically in the anchor
locker. the manual recommends greasing the unit every three months and
since the boat is 9 years old, I thought it was a bit overdue. I
recently discovered that the clutch had frozen so I set about
dismantling the unit from topside, thinking I would be able to pull
the capstan up thru the deck plate and access the clutch plates this
way.- At least that is what the illustration in the manual
suggests.Apparently not the case. Has anyone underataken this task
and if so, can you give me some pointers on how to proceed. Thanks in
advance.
