XTS / XCS Cam Replacement
Lately we have been recieving a bunch of calls about Spinlock Clutches slipping. We thought we would give you a broken down detail of how to replace the cam inside.
1) This is an optional step: You can remove the cleat from the deck by putting the handle in the neutral postion and removing the 2 screws holding the unit on.
2) Remove the line running through the cleat and put the handle in the neutral postion. This will make removal the side screws much easier.
3) Remove the (4) screws and nuts from the side of the cleat that hold it together.
4) Using a hammer and a phillips end screwdriver, tap out the pin the holds the handle in the unit. NOTE: Carefull when completeting this step as the side panels come off and the ferrals will fall out.
5) Remove the side covers
6) Make sure the handle is in the neutral postion
7) Remove the front base pin from the cam unit. You can now take the cam unit away from the base and get the new cam ready to install. You might check for any excessive wear on the base plate at this time. You might also remove any grease and dirt from the cleat itself and the parts that have been removed.
REINSTALLATION
1) Install the new cam and base pin.
2) Rock the cam forward to lock the cam teeth into the base plate.
3) Install the side plate with the handle making sure to line the side plates up correctly.
4) Install the ferrals with the thick edge of the ferrel facing inboard.
5) Install the top guide pin
6) Place the other side plate on the cleat
7) Tap the handle pin back through handle and side plates.
8) Install the screws and nuts.
