No manual required mate, winches are pretty simple beasts, just mark each piece as you pull it apart.
I've stripped down an Ironman 9500 and a Warn 9000, not sure of the exact model, as you remove the bits just lay them out in order on bench, thats all I did. Be sure to have some degreaser, grease, wire brush to remove any rust if it's been submerged, and clean it up as best you can.

One tip I forgot to mention, pull the gear lever out first, the gearbox won't come apart without this being done first.

Shall a job for next weekend.
What grease do you use.
I am mechanically minded, so I dont it will be difficult.

I used a water proof wheel bearing grease in mine, the Warn that I stripped down looked like a lithium based grease, but it did bugger all to stop it rusting.

I have about 30 metres of cable on the winch drum, I always leave atleast 2 metres on the drum when I am winching.
Thinking of going to plasma rope soon aswell which will help, lighter and you can fit more on the drum.
