How To Disassemble Your Reel.
1. Remove the retaining screw by
turning it counter-clockwise, using
a snug-fitting flat bladed screw
driver or coin. (It is important that
whichever tool you choose to use
fits well, as one that is too small
may damage the retaining screw.)
2. Remove the dragknob by turning it
counter-clockwise until it is loose.
Underneath the dragknob there
will be a stainless steel washer. It
will either be stuck to the bottom
of the dragknob or to the top of the
dragspring.
3. Grasp the outside of the frame with one hand and the
spool with the other, and pull the frame and spool
apart. On the back of the spool you may notice that the
clutch is stuck the back of the spool. You can remove
this by grasping the teeth of the clutch and pulling.

3. Clean the clutch assembly. Remove old
grease and grit using a soft cloth.
4. Clean the base of the spindle, [2]. Remove
any old grease and grit from using a soft
cloth.

Remove any old oil and grit using a brush or
swab.

9. Remove old oil from the around the
clicker assembly using a brush or
swab.
10. Remove old grease from the
surface of the bearings. One
bearing is located at [G], while the
other bearing is on the other side of
the spool. If the dragspring [Figure
5] has not been removed, please do
so to clean and lubricate this
bearing.
11. The dragspring does not require
any lubrication. Just wipe the
dragspring off with a soft cloth.
12. The handle assembly need not be lubricated. Simply remove the
screw holding the handle with a flat bladed screw driver and clean
thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
This level of cleaning or lubrication should be carried out once every 3-4
fishing trips. Because of the conditions that this style of reel is used
under (saltwater), it is important that the reel be rinsed off under a warm
water stream after each trip. While the reel is saltwater safe, the quick
rinse will help your reel perform better in the long run. Avoid immersing
the spool in water, because moisture will be retained by the backing. Figure 6 –
