282 windless needs replaced
Hey Cobalt family, my wonderful windless started spitting out plastic teeth. Where do I get a replacement? It’s a Maxwell. Is this a hard replacement?

You might just need to replace the pressure arm. About $30. And DIY.

Most of their manuals have parts lists and exploded parts diagrams in the back. Not quite a service manual, but they aren't terribly difficult to take apart.

This!! If you can find your original manuals in your cobalt bag the Maxwell stuff has a spare pressure arm with it if it hasn't been used yet. The only plastic in that Maxwell windlass is the pressure arm.

Wow! Thank you. Look what I found?
Edit: not letting attach pic. But found the arm in my manual.
