Rob, 1 - Find someone that has the little plastic handle that came with the winches that you can borrow. Use that to hold the drum while you loosen the allen screw, or; 2 - Find an old locking winch handle that has the locking mechanism broken, pop the broken bits off and use as above, or; 3 - Use a strap wrench to hold the drum then loosen the screw.
I have the little wrench if you can't find someone at your club that has one.

If you don't have a winch handle that allows an 'Allen Key' to drop down into it to reach the 'Allen Screw', how do you prevent the winch from turning to loosen the 'Allen Screw'? I bow to the collective wisdom of the C&C site to help me.....more importantly, my winches need lubrication.
