I've started disassembling one of the main winches. I've removed the rusted grease nipple and the 8 bolts that hold the drum to the base. From below, it looks difficult to disassemble, just a center stem that seems to be a different piece than the winch base.

The drum has faded letters on top marking it "DENMARK". Does everyone have these winches and has anyone serviced them?
