Despite quite some rain during the day, I could complete the maintenance of the STB genoa winch.<\/p>\n
It was a bit tricky because I mounted a not fully flat washer the wrong way round in the center axis. Result was that the central axis blocked when I tightened the screws of the cage for all 4 axes with their various gear wheels. Fortunately I found pretty quickly that the problem is the central axis and there is only one not fully flat washer. I turned it around and the problem was solved. Lesson learned.<\/p>\n
While thinking about the mast winch, I took my biggest screw driver and opened it. I saw that the technician, who maintained the winch last time, used much too much grease. The grease caught dust, which makes the winch rotating harder under load. This means I get the wrong feeling for the tension in a halyard or the top lift.<\/p>\n
Thus, tomorrow I’ll maintain this winch as well.<\/p>\n
