Harken C10245 TTR2 AirBlock - Manual (Page 3)

Harken equipment requires minimal maintenance, but some is required to give
the best service and to comply with Harken's limited warranty.
It is important to keep equipment clean by frequent flushing with fresh water.
In corrosive atmospheres, stainless parts may show discoloration around holes,
rivets and screws. This is not serious and may be removed with a fine abrasive.
Flush blocks thoroughly with fresh water. Periodically, disassemble the blocks
and clean with detergent and fresh water.
Important: Exposure to some teak cleaners and other caustic solutions can result
in discoloration of part and is not covered under the Harken warranty.
Inspect Parts Every Time You Sail
Inspect secondary lashing
at head of block to make
sure knot and stop knots
are holding tightly.
For additional safety, maintenance and warranty information see
www.harken.com/manuals or the Harken catalog.
WARNING! Failure to inspect and correct block and loop
or lashing may result in block breaking under load. Inspect
parts each time you sail. If parts are under load during long
passages it is important to inspect them carefully while in use.
Inspect loops and lashings. Replace if there are signs of wear or if the
colored tracer fades from UV damage. Pull loop out of mouth and inspect
loop/lashing carefully for any signs of wear, UV damage, fatigue or strand
separation. Replace loop if it shows signs of UV damage or wear.
WARNING! Failure to replace damaged or weakened parts can
cause part to break under load. Replace all loops and lashings
every year or if there is any sign of wear, UV damage, fatigue
or strand separation. If in doubt replace. Consult chart to match
strength of loop/lashing to block and load.
