Measurements the
Vang Master process consist in identify the location on the mast
where you would like to attach your vang. For best performance,
select a location as low on the mast as possible, but just above
the partners. Your mast may already have fixed vang attachment tangs.
If so, you'll want to use this location.
From this mast location, project an imaginary line 45 degrees up
to your boom. Ensure this location is clear of hardware and/or lines.
Measure the distance from the mast to the location on the boom.
Also provide us with a close representation of the profiles of the
boom and mast. This helps us understand your requirements.
Maintenance
Vang-Master is a quality made product and should
require little maintenance. VangMaster recommend that you hose off
your vang when washing your boat. Take care to spray the fittings
and its block and tackle to remove dust or salt.
It comes with its own air pump. The pump is used to either adjust
the return force to meet your boat's needs, or to add more air.
To add air to the cylinder, simply affix the pump hose to the Schrader
valve located at the base of the vang. Pump as you would a bicycle
tire pump to achieve the appropriate pressure.
To adjust return force, simply add or delete air from the pneumatic
cylinder via the Schrader valve.
Quick Test: Fill the cylinder with air to desired
pressure. Go to rear of boom, press down and check resistance. Adjust
the return force pressure to suit your requirements.
