Safe working loads for hydraulic winches are lower than for hand-operated winches because the input torque is much higher.

Hoses and Ports

  • Hydraulic system installation is not covered in this manual; hoses and connectors are not supplied.
  • Use reinforced braid hose to SAE100R7 or ISO D1S3949 for the motor A and B ports.
  • Hose size: up to 15 m (50 ft) 12 mm (1/2"); over 15 m (50 ft) 16 mm (5/8"). Minimum bend radius 150 mm (6").
  • Safe working pressure: see the performance graphs.
  • Lewmar hydraulic motor ports A & B: 1/2" BSP. Hydraulic drive unit case drains do not need to be fitted.
  • Keep everything clean: dirt in the system impairs safe operation and wears the hydraulic components.

With an Autoshift Commander unit, winches 68–111 may need only one deck switch; Ocean 46–64 (as printed) and EVO 45–65 are single-switch only.

Hydraulic Performance

Load against pressure and line speed against flow, maximum performance envelope per size. If your winch performs below these, see Troubleshooting.

Installation

Electric Conversion Kit

Ocean Wavespring manual winches built from 1992 on, and EVO manual winches, convert to electric with a kit of centre stem (A) and power drive base (B); add a suitable Lewmar motor/gearbox (C).

To convert: remove the winch, replace the centre stem with the kit stem, reassemble, fit the power drive base to the centre stem and mount the motor/gearbox.

Planning the Position

  • Allow 360° rotation of the winch handle.
  • Rope should enter the drum at –5° to –10° to the base axis; a base wedge may be needed.
  • Mount on an even surface. Place the output gear in the best position relative to the load and the sheet entry.
  • Check deck, hull and bulkhead clearance for the motor/gearbox or hydraulic drive before cutting. The motor/gearbox rotates in 90° steps.
  • Motor rotation is factory set. Fitted the wrong way round, a single-speed winch will not run and clicks; a 2- or 3-speed winch loses a lot of performance.
  • Winches 40–65: drill a Ø64 mm hole for the centre stem, strip the winch and mark the bolt holes through the base plate. Winches 68–111: remove the drum and mark through the holes in the base of the centre stem.
  • Place the deck switches near the winch and in view of it.

Fitting a Winch (40–65)

  • Isolate the winch at the breaker/isolator.
  • Unscrew the top cap anti-clockwise. Ocean 40: remove feeder arm and collets; Ocean 46–111: remove the feeder arm; EVO: turn the drum until the cutout in the upper crown is opposite the collets.
  • Lift off the drum (the drum washer refits with the bevel on the underside).
  • Remove the centre stem screws and lever the stem off the two dowel pins with a flat screwdriver in the drainage slots, holding the gear stack together. If the pawl gear falls away, it goes back shoulder face down.
  • Remove the base plate cover, bed the base with a light coat of sealant (not a permanent adhesive such as 5200) and bolt it down with countersunk heads. Let silicone-type sealant cure before final tightening.
  • Refit the centre stem, turning the gears to re-engage pawls and ratchet tracks; refit drum, collets, feeder arm and top cap.
