Racers can adjust instantly to small changes in wind direction or steering, giving an unmatched advantage when frequent sail trim adjustments are required. It is also a welcome convenience for cruising sailors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the water, QuickTrim is intuitive to use. With one hand on the top cover, turn it counterclockwise to ease the grip on the rope so you can make quick adjustments. When you release the top cover, it springs back and grips the rope to resume normal use. This simple, reliable function is a major advantage for frequent, minor trim changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs supplied from the factory, the Orbit 50QT functions as a traditional two-speed self-tailing winch. The QuickTrim function is easily activated by simply removing a single screw located under the self-tailer cover. Step-by-step instructions are included in the accompanying Quick Reference Guide, supplied with the winch and in the product manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTOTALLY TOOL-FREE\u003c\/b\u003e Full removal and reinstallation can be carried out completely without tools. To remove the drum, pull back the spring-loaded release pawl and a slight counterclockwise rotation will allow the self-tailing arm to be lifted off the winch. Then the drum can be removed from the winch's center shaft. When reassembling the winch, an audible click confirms that the self-tailing arm is in place on the center shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cb\u003ePOWER RIBS\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires fewer wraps around the drum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces the load on the self-tailer and encourages the rope to slide easily upward on the drum to prevent overrides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe non-wearing drum surface extends rope life and allows smooth, controlled easing even under high loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ronstan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50753964900683,"sku":"1311299","price":2046.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0878\/9183\/7259\/files\/1311299_XL.jpg?v=1730743261","url":"https:\/\/www.boatlab.net\/products\/ronstan-quicktrim-spil-50qt-orbit-2-speed","provider":"BoatLab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
