Everyone might ask for a picture. You may go online to find info or my wild guess on the holes would be a hand ratchet location to lift the anchor if you loose power.

Well there you go, already answered.

The offset winch hole (socket) is used to raise the anchor by hand. The center hole is to tighten and loosen the clutch to the motor. The socket screw down in the center hole is to adjust the tension on the clutch. This pertains to an Anchorman 1000. If you have something else, well YMMV......

Putting the winch handle in the side socket and turning it counter clock wise.
