215 Quattro model for boats requiring extremely fast winches • Handles large asymmetrical spinnakers; power to trim genoa upwind. • 2 speeds + 2 drum diameters = 4 line speeds. Power-grip jaws shaped for easy line entry, optimum hold • Narrow composite jaws ensure superior holding power on small-diameter, high-strength line. • Lower jaw adjusts under line pressure; accepts a variety of line sizes. • Teeth grip evenly with or without load. Adjustable stripper arm integrated into winch top for safer operation • Stripper arm completely covers rotating winch top, preventing fingers and clothing from catching in moving parts. • Adjusts to multiple positions after the winch is mounted to optimize line exit. • Shaped to smoothly feed line in and out of self-tailing jaws. Simple to install, easy maintenance • Stud mounting bolts allow fast installation. Drum removes easily with a flathead screwdriver. • Snap-fit design keeps bearings captive when drum is removed for maintenance. • Easy to disassemble for service on deck; socket, washer, and screw-top snap-fit togeth- er for mistake-free reassembly. • Composite roller bearings don’t require lubrication. Powered Options • Electric: vertical-mount motors; horizontal-mount motors offered with right- or left-mount option. • Hydraulic: vertical-mount motor. Easy upgrade from manual to power • Manual winches easily convert to powered using patented conversion method. • No adapter plate required; identical stud pattern to mount winches of the same size without drilling new holes in deck. • A predrilled hole in deck by builder simplifies manual-to-electric conversion; removable gaskets offered to seal holes until upgrade is made. Energy-efficient motors accomplish more work per unit of electricity consumed • Motors attach to central drive shaft and drive through winch gears for two-speed mechanical advantage. • Low-power first gear for fast trimming; higher-power second gear for fine-tuning loaded sheets. • Efficient design allows smaller motor size. Manual override in case of power loss • Harken locking handle inserted into an unloaded winch automatically disconnects motor gear for manual operation. Performa winches: What's inside?
