I looked up the lubrication requirements in the D6N Hyster Winch manual and it does imply the oil in the transmission case and final drive compartment is shared but that pertains to the winch itself.
Filling the winch takes about 3-1/2 gallons of oil. The tractor transmission takes 10-1/2 gallons and the tractor final drives do not share that oil.
Also if you check, the winch drive shaft is sealed from the tractor transmission and bevel gear compartment.
Hope you haven't been running the winch dry!!! as it runs constantly as long as the main clutch is engaged.
