Always check the floor socket, the pole, boom and winch on dimensions, dirt, damage or deformation. If necessary, clean and replace the damaged parts.

The floor socket can be installed everywhere by means of chemical anchors or standard fixing bolts. Slot the davit in the approved socket, and the check stability (Fig1).

Release the cable by turning the crank counter clockwise. Disassemble the load hook from the hole at the bottom of the pole (Fig 2). Now it is possible to fold out the boom upwards (Fig 3).

Ensure the davit is free from any load.

Wind the winch until the hook is hanging approx. 500mm below the roller / sheave (Fig 4).

Supporting the boom, push the red pin upwards (Fig 5), and lower the boom gently.

Mount the hook into the securing hole of the davit pole (Fig 6), then apply very slight tension onto the cable by turning the crank clockwise.

The davit can then be removed from the floor socket. Be sure to replace the socket lid to avoid filling with dirt / debris.
