Servicing Barlow winches requires disassembling the drum, bearings, and gears to remove old, hardened grease that prevents the pawls from ratcheting.10:14 On a Barlow 23 self-tailing winch, the process begins by removing the top cap with an adjustable winch tool, followed by the drum and internal gear assembly.6:50 Pawls should be cleaned with a degreaser and lubricated only with light machine oil, as heavy grease causes them to stick.13:55 Gears and bearings require a light coating of specialized winch grease, such as Lewmar winch grease, to ensure smooth operation.16:00 Documenting the disassembly with photos or video prevents reassembly errors, especially when dealing with multiple winch models like the Barlow 16, 25, and 32 found on the vessel.15:18 After maintenance, the pawls should produce a distinct clicking sound under load.17:40
