Dinghy Davit - New Spectra Line? - Attach to Drum?

I’m in the process of replacing the Spectra line on my dinghy davit.

I have a 2006 vintage Pacific Fabrication Davit that I had installed in Anacortes.

When I unspool the old line, it disappears into a hole in the drum and is attached there.

How is it attached?    Someone said a hex key lock?  How do I remove the old line and attach the new line?

Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated.

Happy tuggin’
