Introduction

Thank you for buying an Engbo anchor windlass. We hope you will find it useful and simple to

work with. To ensure that you do, it is essential that you fit and use it in accordance with the

instructions in this manual to ensure the best possible conditions for optimal windlass

operation. For example, the windlass motor must receive sufficient power, and the windlass,

rope and anchor bracket must all be positioned correctly.

Engbo has been active in the boat industry for more than 30 years, and are well aware of the

requirements made on the equipment on board. To meet the challenges posed by a boat

operating in wet conditions –often with limited power capacity –Engbo has invested heavily

in developing new, modern electronic control systems.

Most Engbo MAXI windlasses can be supplied for use with rope or chain. The descriptions for

rope or chain operation in this manual are therefore suitable for both.

IMPORTANT! This manual contains information you need to know before installing

the windlass. Therefore, please read it carefully.

General procedures for using Engbo Maxi windlasses

Read the operating manual carefully before installing and using the windlass.

Please note that strong forces are involved, so please use the windlass carefully and make

sure, for example, that:

You do not get your fingers caught up in the rope, chain, anchor, rollers or gypsies.

The rope/chain is always under observation when the anchor is being raised.

Everyone on board has been informed of how the windlass functions.

You always operate the winch from a place that provides an unobstructed view of the

anchor while it is being raised. This will help prevent “unpleasant surprises” that may

damage the boat.

You release the switch for a little while if the windlass is straining to raise the anchor.

When the boat has started moving backwards, you can start the windlass again. This

will make it easier for the windlass to operate, and it will use less power.

If the anchor is stuck on the seabed: Release some rope and make it fast to a cleat on

the boat. Then use the boat engine to free the anchor. Once the anchor has been freed,

use the windlass in the usual manner.

The windlass can run for max. 3 minutes at normal load.

The anchor must always be secured to the boat while the boat is travelling. Use the

securing lines supplied.

Disconnect the power to the windlass once the boat is underway.

Children must not operate the windlass.

Negligent use can result in unnecessary damage.

Always make sure the battery is well charged when using the windlass. Always have

the motor running when the windlass is in use.

The windlass features electronic overload protection. If necessary, let the winch cool

down for 15–20 min. and then try again. In the event of an emergency, you can

override the overload protection by disconnecting and then reconnecting the main

power switch for the windlass.

Engbo AS accepts no liability for injuries or damage resulting from the use of the

windlass.

IMPORTANT!

Always have the boat engine running while the windlass is in use.

Always disconnect the power from the windlass when it is not in use.

Make sure to fit and use the windlass and its accessories in such a way as to

prevent injuries to people and damage to the boat and/or its surroundings.

Installation must be done or checked by trained personel with special

knowledge regarding high current and low voltage.

Faulty installations or connections of any components to the windlass will

render all warranty given by Engbo void.

To avoid overload when anchoring, the anchor line/chain must be secured

properly.

If the anchor has got stuck at the seabed, if possible, pull the anchor from

different directions by moving the boat in different positions.

When doing this, it is recommended to fix the anchor line in the cleat to avoid

overload.

Operating instructions

Preparation before anchoring.

Landing.

Make sure the boat engine is running during anchoring.

Decide where you want to drop anchor.

Check that the safety line on the anchor has been

loosened.

Turn on the main switch of the windlass.

When the main switch of the anchor windlass has been

switched off, you must press the down button first.

Keep this button depressed for at least 1 second to drop

the anchor.

The windlass motor will run out for 1.5 seconds to

ensure the correct release function.

Fixed switch panel

Press the down button for at least 1 sec.

The anchor will drop.

The windlass is now released and the rope will run out

in step with the progress of the boat towards land.

Tie up the boat on land.

NB If you are using a free-fall chain windlass, the high

weight of the chain may result in the full length of the chain

being pulled out. If so, make sure to take up the slack once

you have tied the boat up.

Tighten up the slack of the anchor rope (or chain) by

pressing the up button so that the anchor settles firmly

on the seabed and pulls the boat away from land.

NB The windlass will always wind in slowly for 1.5 sec

before it switches to full speed. If you release the button

within 1.5 sec and press it again and then repeat the

process, the windlass will continue to wind in at low speed.

Setting off

Start the boat engine to charge the battery.

Check that the main switch of the windlass is

turned on.

Cast off from land.

Activate the windlass.

Keep the up button depressed, and the windlass will pull

the boat away from land. The windlass will pull the anchor

up at full speed until the first auto stop is activated.

NB This ONLY applies for rope windlasses and requires the

anchor rope to be correctly fitted with brass wire markers.

NB Keep an eye on the anchor when it leaves the

water and seats in the anchor bracket. This will

allow you to stop the windlass and prevent

damage if the anchor pulls up foreign objects

from the seabed.

NB If the windlass is straining while raising the anchor, it

would be a good idea (and save power) to run the windlass

in periods. Once the boat has begun to move backwards,

you can release the up button and then run the windlass in

periods.

Release the up button, press again and keep

depressed.

The windlass will continue to raise the anchor slowly

until the second auto stop is activated, stopping the

windlass completely.

The anchor will then be correctly seated in the anchor

bracket.

Attach the safety line to the anchor.

Turn off the main switch of the windlass.

Have pleasant sailing!

Wireless remote control

To switch on the remote control, keep one of the

buttons depressed for 1.5 sec. The green “power”

indicator will light up, and you will hear a brief audio

signal.

Every time you subsequently press a button, the

associated indicator will light up, and the remote will

emit an audio signal.

To ensure a long lifetime, the remote control switches

off automatically 5 min. after the last button was

pressed. Automatic shut-off is preceded by two short

audio signals and the “Power” indicator flashing.

Anchor down

When the remote control is switched on, you can drop

the anchor by pressing the “down” button in. Keep this

button depressed for at least 1 second to drop the

anchor.

The windlass will then run out for 1.5 seconds to

ensure the correct release function.

Anchor up

When the anchor has dropped to the seabed, press the

“up” button to take up the slack. The windlass will

continue to winch in as long as you keep the “up”

button depressed. If the remote control has switched

off automatically (i.e. if you have not pressed a button

for more than 5 min) it will first switch on and then

immediately start to wind in the anchor rope/chain. The

windlass always starts to operate for 1.5 sec at reduced

speed before increasing to full speed.

This means that you can keep the windlass operating at

low speed by releasing and pressing the “up” button

repeatedly as required.

The “Power” indicator information:

Green light indicates that the remote control is ready

for use.

Orange light indicates that the power supply to the

windlass is not optimal, or that the windlass is

overloaded and needs time to cool down.

Red light indicates a system error or that the battery

charge is too low for the windlass to operate.

Red light flashing slowly accompanied by short

audio signals indicates that contact with the electronic

unit (receiver) cannot be established.

NB These error notifications will continue for as long as a

button is depressed.

Forced operation of the windlass

If you need to raise the anchor a little further than the

second “auto stop”mark, you can do so by keeping the

“up” button depressed for more than 10 seconds. The

windlass will then operate at low speed for as long as you

hold the button in.

NB. The use of this function must be closely

controlled to prevent damage.

A brief description of the Engbo anchor system

Engbo MAXI windlasses is a common designation for

1000/1500 W, 12/24V Engbo windlasses. Some of the

models are most suitable for fitting aft, some fore, and

others both fore and aft. Engbo MAXI windlasses are

designed for boats larger than around 25 feet. These

windlasses –with the exception of type 33 –are

authentic free-fall windlasses, which means that a

neutral position in the windlass gears allows the anchor

to drop directly to the seabed immediately after the

“anchor down” (arrow down) button has been pressed.

The system is based on allowing the weight of the

anchor on the outside of the anchor bracket to define

how quickly the anchor drops. Therefore, it is

important to avoid unnecessary friction between rope

and hull, rollers and/or guides.

Example: If you fit the windlass with a Bruce anchor,

you will need to use the jointed anchor bracket and

ensure that the angle between horizontal and the rope

is at least 15–20º. If the angle is too narrow, the

anchor will “balance” and need “assistance” to tip out.

Electronic control unit

Engbo MAXI windlasses are fitted with modern

electronics that consist of:

Transistor-controlled power electronics that

replace the conventional cut-in relay. The new

electronic unit contains no open contacts and is very

flexible as regards voltage.

The control electronics are software-based and

feature an integrated radio receiver that

communicates with the wireless remote control, and

a built-in system to protect the windlass motor and

electronic components. Other functions controlled

electronically are two “up” speeds and two automatic

stop indicators for seating the anchor.

Switch panels

12-79000

Standard touch panel

The windlasses are supplied as standard with 1 x

watertight (IP 68) touch panel (12-79000) for

installing in a readily accessible place in the cockpit.

If only this touch panel is to be fitted, it must, for

safety reasons, be positioned so as to allow the

operator a clear view of the anchor as it is raised and

seated in the anchor bracket.

The panel comes with a self-adhesive surface, but if

you prefer, it can be seated more firmly using the

screws supplied.

12-47020

12-47021

Wireless remote control

Three different wireless controls are available;

12-47020 designed for controlling two separate anchor

winches, 12-47021 two winches and two thrusters and

12-47022 for controlling up to six different

anchor/mooring winches.

The remote control is splash proof and features a

modern, compact design with strips of “anti-slip

material” on the rear surface. It will also float if

dropped over board.

Two-way narrow-band radio communication

guarantees the transmission of unique code to ensure

that the signal controls only your windlass.

An indicator light shows the voltage level or overload.

Range of more than 30 m in normal conditions.

The remote control uses three standard AAA (LR03)

batteries –included. For normal operation, the

batteries have a service life of more than two seasons.

A wrist/neck strap is supplied as standard.

Holder for wireless remote control

The enclosed, handy holder (12-47030), keeps the

wireless remote located in the right place when not in

use.

The holder kit consists of two single parts, and the holder

to and the bracket.

Slide the holder into the bracket by the slots.

Fix the bracket to the base with the adhesive tape.

By turning the backside of the remote forward and

fit it in the holder, the buttons will be protected

from unwanted activating of the winch or thruster

when kept in the pocket.

Installation –general

The windlass should be positioned as high as possible to allow maximum space for the rope

that will be stored below the windlass. The height from the bottom of the well where the rope

is stored to the bottom edge of the line wheel should be at least 50 cm, and the area

should be at least 40 x 40 cm to allow room for 50 m x 15 mm anchor rope. This will

prevent the rope from bunching under the windlass, and assure sufficient friction between the

line wheel and the rope.

See the specific descriptions for the separate windlass models.

The anchor bracket

Fit the windlass so that the rope is wound up in line with the anchor bracket (see pictures 1

and 2) –numerous different models are available –positioned on the exterior of the boat. The

anchor bracket functions as a guide for the rope when the anchor is on the seabed and as a

“seating point” for the anchor once it has been raised.
