Xx0812, Xx0812/L Clutch; Maintenance - Spinlock XX Série Mode D'emploi

XX0812, XX0812/L Clutch

1. Align the clutch with the required rope lead, checking height and
minimising the angle of alignment.
2. Drill two holes to suit the M8 fasteners using template (never drill
through the clutch). For spars, etc. where no access is possible, use an
M8 tap to thread the surface material, ensuring the material has
sufficient strength to carry the full clutch load, the fasteners must be
replaced with M8 A4-80 stainless socket cap or CSK Machine screws.
3. Check each fastener (already pre-assembled into clutch) to make certain
that its hexagonal head is properly seated in its locking moulding.
4. Fasten clutch firmly after sealing upper threads with silicone sealant.
In through-deck applications any excess thread can now be ground off.
To access the fasteners : The XX0812 is supplied fitted with High
Tensile A4-80 stainless steel hex head fasteners so access is unlikely to be
needed.
If you want to fit your own fasteners, you will only need to remove the rear
end moulding to gain access to the aft fixing position.
The forward fastener can be accessed from above (see Diagram 1). The
simplest way to remove this fastener is to remove the nut and washer and
turn the product upside down. The M8 fastener can now be removed.
For Lock Open Versions, ensure the lock open latch is in the down position.
Lift handle 50mm to gain access to the M5 Allen screw on the top surface
that retains the rear moulding. Remove this screw. (See Diagram 2).
Hold rear cover at top and rotate and pull out from the top (See Diagram 3).
