Installation
Installing the magnet on the anchor windlass
•
A hole having a diameter of 6.5 mm (~1/4") and depth of 8 mm (5/16") must be drilled
on a tooth of the gipsy, in a place outside the chain's path.
•
In the case of vertical shaft anchor windlasses (see Fig. 1B), drill the hole in the lower
circumference of the gipsy.
•
In the case of horizontal shaft anchor windlasses (see Fig. 2B), drill the hole in the
outer circumference of the gipsy.
•
Also make sure that the protruding part of the magnet will not collide with the base or
sensor during rotation of the gipsy.
•
Insert the metal part of the magnet in the hole, allowing the protected part to protrude
by about 2 mm. Fix it in place using an adhesive for metals (two-component epoxy
glue) or silicone. The glue used must be able to withstand a marine environment.
