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.
