Terry, I simply apply a small amount of lithium grease to the worm gear, using 
a small brush, while the winch is operating.  Once a month seems to be enough 
for easy operation.

Incidentally, my winch suffers from considerable rust after 3+ years of 
operation in a seaside location.  I just ordered a replacement from the 
Harborfreight website.
