Rescue Boat Davit · Davits
Vestdavit Vestdavit TFD SWL-5t is identified in the source list as a marine davit. It is installed at the assigned survival-craft or rescue-boat station on deck and structurally attached to the vessel. Its purpose is to launch and recover the associated rescue boat, lifeboat or raft using the approved falls, winch and hook arrangement. The existing database record provides no additional model-specific operating figure beyond the listed designation and category. The davit, winch, falls, brakes and release interfaces form part of a certified launching appliance and must be maintained as an integrated system. The exact model designation identifies the approved load, outreach and launching arrangement; these values must be taken from the equipment certificate and manufacturer documentation.
Every value below comes from the manufacturer datasheet or class-society record on file for this model.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Inspect falls, sheaves, pins, winch, brakes, controls, limit devices and structural foundations. Lubricate specified points and check free movement without contaminating brake surfaces. Examine wire ropes and terminations for corrosion, broken wires and deformation and record condition according to the approved maintenance scheme. Function-test controls and recovery equipment using the authorized procedure and restore all securing arrangements afterward. Inspect the davit structure for corrosion, cracking or deformation. Refer to manufacturer and statutory documentation for exact inspection intervals, renewal criteria, load tests and brake settings.
Keep manufacturer-recommended brake linings or service parts, control switches, seals, bearings, lubrication items and approved wire-rope or termination components as appropriate. Critical hook, fall and structural parts must remain within the certified launching-appliance configuration. Verify exact spares from the davit and winch documentation.
