It retrieves and deploys 3\/8\" (10 mm) short-link chain spliced to 5\/8\" (16 mm) three-strand or 8-plait rope, and its patented Wave Design chainwheel is engineered to accommodate a range of chain pitch differences within the specified chain size, guiding rope and chain smoothly through the wheel during anchor retrieval. It also works effectively with all-chain rodes for those who prefer that setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is a simple two-piece design that saves time and allows retrofitting without disassembling the windlass. A unique spacer tube design accommodates virtually any deck thickness, and multiple mounting positions with a self-aligning gearbox let the gearbox and motor be positioned optimally for the installation. The heavy-duty stainless steel pressure arm, backed by a large-wire-diameter stainless steel pre-loaded spring, keeps constant control pressure on the rope\/chain splice as it passes through. A huge through-deck hawse pipe throat allows easy entry of the rode into the anchor locker, and the topworks can be fully disassembled using only the handle provided and an Allen key for routine service. The sealed oil bath, hard-anodized alloy gearbox drives a precision worm and worm wheel for efficient output, and a manual override with emergency crank\/clutch release handle is included for free-fall anchoring or power-loss situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes the RC10 windlass, a dual-direction solenoid pack, a circuit breaker\/isolator panel, an up\/down remote control panel, and the emergency crank\/clutch release handle, giving a complete installation package out of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maxwell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e RC101012V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9414761058797\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vertical windlass (gypsy)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePulling Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 1870 lb max pull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking Load:\u003c\/strong\u003e 625 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Load:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1870 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRetrieval Speed:\u003c\/strong\u003e 79 ft\/min chain, 65 ft\/min rope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage Draw:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGypsy Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/8\" chain gypsy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/8\" short-link chain (10 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRope Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8\" (16 mm) rope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1000W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel and chromed bronze deck unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Boat Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Typical boats to approximately 50 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCircuit Breaker Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 135 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-years limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManual Override:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, via winch handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControl Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helm switch;
