Maintenance

Inspect Block and Shackle Before You Sail

Frequently inspect shackles and shackle posts for signs of corrosion, cracks, or elongation. When

replacing shackles, use the correct Harken parts to maintain the proper strength. Replace line as

necessary, taking into consideration the maximum size recommendation.

WARNING!: Failure to inspect and replace damaged metal parts and/or worn or frayed line

can cause block or system to break suddenly causing an accident, damage to your vessel,

personal injury or death. See www.harken.com/manuals for additional safety information.
