[Rhodes22-list] Mast winch handle unscrews ??

[R Orkin]

Simple answer but does not seem like right answer with winch design.

It is a weird non ratcheting winch with some kind of friction brake. Handle
does not actually work on the shaft but the handle is friction pressed
against end of drum..THere is a spring assembly that is supposed to force
the handle against drum but weird assembly holds it on.. would probably
destroy getting off
