[TowerTalk] Fulton K1550/K2550 winch

["KI6CG,GEORGE" <ki6cg@centurytel.net>]

Now is the time to service your tower winch!
( I had 2 failures. Caused by lack of lubrication.)

Crank down the tower, Remove winch, take it apart
Clean the jackscrew that operates the brake.
(You will see square thread on the shaft and inside
the hub.)
Put a light film of boat wheel-bearing grease on the
jack screw. Do not get grease on the brake plates.
Reassemble.   KI6CG, George
