Qué cubre este vídeo

A hydraulic anchor winch for the 110kg anchor and 16mm chain on the vessel Brupeg requires a full mechanical overhaul after a condition check reveals rusted bearings and seized components.1:13 The owner strips the second-hand unit, using a makeshift press built from steel beams and a Toyota Hilux jack to remove a jammed brake component from the main shaft.7:21 Cleaning procedures involve soaking seized parts in diesel for three days to dissolve rust and gunk, followed by sandblasting and manual scrubbing until a white rag remains clean upon contact.10:06 Two of the four internal bearings are replaced at a cost of $110 each, while the remaining two are repacked with fresh grease to restore smooth operation.16:55 The assembly process includes applying grease to shaft seals to prevent damage during installation and ensuring the worm gear reduction system is properly aligned.28:36 The winch features a manual brake release mechanism that allows the chain to free-spin if the hydraulic system fails.39:00
