Barient Model 24-45 winches

[RBilly]

I have an '83 O'day 28 with Barient Model 24-45 winches. Am looking for service manuals/ info to remove/lubricate and also parts as one of the jaws has cracked.

Would appreciate any help/ info.

Thanks for help. Any idea of where parts are available in U.S.?

I'm in Southern Georgian Bay, Canada.

Don't know about in the US, but I've gotten replacement parts from the Australian Winch Company in the past - http://www.arco-winches.com/products/spares

Thanks for reply. Any idea of how too disassemble these winches as there are no screws visible?

Thanks for reply. Downloaded the Barlow schematic and they mention a Barlow dismantling handle??
Any idea what that is. There are no screws on top of my winches.
Thanks for your help again.

I have the self tailers so mine are different.

I would guess the dismantling handle is just something to hold the drum or top cap while you unscrewed the cap screw. Are there two small holes in the top cap (part #4)?

Just found out Barient supplied a plastic wrench (blue) to hold winch from turning while loosening cap screw. Will have to jury rig something. The wrench fitted in like winch handle
w/a hole in the middle for the allen wrench to loosen cap screw.

Thanks.

That's pretty much our experience. Ours had small black handles, like mini-winch handles with a hole in the top. The hole allowed you to hold the winch in place when turning the Allen screw inside. Our mast mounted single speed winches didn't have a screw - instead they had a button inside the winch handle hole. You would push the button and lift the winch off.
