Can anyone point me to a maintenance guide for Arco #6 winches?

I don’t see anything helpful at the manufacturer’s website and their inquiry form appears to be permanently broken:
http://www.arco-winches.com/enquiry.html

Also, I have received no response from emails sent to:
[email protected]

Thanks!

Thanks, but as I noted in the original posting: it’s a static cob-web-site with a broken inquiry form. I was just hoping someone had been through this already and had found a solution. I guess I’ll get to be the one to publish it once I figure it out.

Sent that too fast. Now I see the guidelines at the bottom of that page. Thanks!
Arco Barient should hire you! :-)

As quoted from the Rig-Rite Corp. of Rhode Island,

"Barient/Barlow Winches
Rig-Rite no longer stocks any parts for Barient or Barlow Winches. Both Barient and Barlow have been out of business for over a decade. Residual parts inventories and much of the remaining tooling has been acquired by The Australian Yacht Winch Company, who still offer many parts for these Winches. Their Barient/Barlow Parts Page is on-line @ www.arco-winches.com/barient.html."

Hope that helps anyone. It certainly will for me!
