Maxwell Freedom 500

FEATURES


Maxwell's revolutionary design automatically feeds anchor rode into and out of the anchor locker allowing effortless handling of rope, chain or rope/chain rodes.

Sleek, captive on deck design for smooth, snag free operation.

Maxwell’s unique performance plate (supplied with winch), in combination with the use of 8 plait nylon rope, will ensure trouble free performance.

High speed, jam free retrieval of rope and chain from remote control stations.

Dual direction, power up and down operation.

Cone type clutch/brake mechanism permits manual "free fall" anchoring. Cone clutches, unlike dog clutches, provide smooth disengagement, ensuring safe operator control.

Simplified two piece installation without disassembly of windlass.

Alternative gearbox/motor positions accommodate virtually all installation situations.

Manual override using the emergency crank handle provided.

Marine-grade, hard anodised alloy housing finished in metallic charcoal.

Full disassembly capability of top works utilising handle provided and a screwdriver - no special tools required.

Heavy duty, dual direction motor, designed for marine winches, isolated ground type, with durable class F insulation. Easily removed for servicing.

Sealed oil bath and marine-grade anodised alloy gearbox provides high efficiency output drive via precision worm and wormwheel.
Trouble free transition from rope to chain by means of an innovative pressure arm system within a safer enclosed design.
Important: Maxwell windlasses must be used in conjunction with a chain stopper or snubbing device to take the load off the windlass while laying at anchor. The chain stopper and alternative snubbing system can also be used to secure the anchor in the fully raised position while under way.
