Installation Tips for Optimal Performance
- Plan Your Route: Measure twice to ensure the 2m length fits your layout, avoiding sharp bends that could strain the cable.
- Secure Properly: Use cable ties or conduit to protect against chafe from lines or hardware.
- Test Thoroughly: After installation, cycle the windlass several times to verify smooth operation and no interference.
- Maintenance Hack: Periodically inspect connectors for corrosion and apply dielectric grease to extend lifespan.
These steps not only simplify setup but also prevent common issues like intermittent power or control lag, keeping your anchoring reliable season after season.
