Hi I am about to change the worm gear. This time with the mast up. I have done it once but with the mast down.
Do I need to take any precautions on the furler or can I push it back up when fitting the new gear?
I am aware of the backing plate issue that Ian has described
What else to consider before going ahead?

I like to stuff a towel in the mast below the worm gear in case I drop anything like the sail shackle pin etc.
