 TM 55-1905-220-14-1
1-57. "A" FRAME.
a. The Anchor "A" Frame (Figure 1-58) is a pivoted "A" shaped frame located on the Star board Side Aft. In the
stowed position the "A" Frame is locked with a pin. The anchor is secured to the hull with two quick-release Pelican
hooks. The anchor hangs from the "A" Frame fairlead with a cable. The cable runs over the fairlead sheave to a sheave
on deck. The cable then goes below deck to the slack puller and anchor winch.
b. When the anchor is to be either dropped or retrieved the central hydraulic system is turned on. This provides power
to the hydraulic winch. This winch will pivot the "A" Frame to an outboard position. The anchor can now be either
dropped or retrieved. A safety chain is secured between the "A" frame and the starboard balwark.
