Barient Winch Servicing

I recently tried to service the Barient 8P winches on my 21 footer.
Much to my chagrin, there is no obvious way to remove the drum.
Normally you would find a lock ring on top. These have a stamped sort
of image of one, but no ring.
I removed the winch from the deck…not much help there either.
All the documentation that I’ve read alludes to removing
this “ring/clip”.
Any thoughts out there?

Push down firmly on the plastic button in the bottom of the hole for
the winch handle. It will release a spring and should lok in place.
If the spring does not lock open, hold it down as you lift the winch
drum up.

Replacement Barient parts are available from an outfit in Australia.
I got new top rings from them for my F21.
