MAINTENANCE
The Shimano reel requires very little internal maintenance.
This, of course,
depends on how much use the reel receives during a season.
During most of the time spent in use, the reels will be exposed to salt spray, rain
or hot sun, all of which are a potent combination.
Although each reel is
constructed of the most corrosion resistant materials...graphite, stainless steel,
heavily anodized aluminum and marine bronze...the combination of heat and salt
water could cause salt build-up if left unattended. The best way to prevent these
problems is to simply spray the reel with a water displacing lubricant such as WD-
40 or CRC. These products will lift water and salt from the surface of the reel
allowing you to wipe away these deposits. Simply spray the reel with the aerosol,
let it "soak" for a few minutes and wipe it off. It is not necessary to wipe the reel
dry. In fact, leaving a slight coating on the reel will protect it and make the next
clean-up even easier. Don't worry about the aerosol spray damaging your line...it
won't.
If you don't have a chance to spray your reels after a day's fishing, you may hose
them off lightly with fresh water. Do not hose your reel heavily with fresh water,
as all this does is drive salt and other foreign matter into your reel. A very light
spray will do the job properly. If you must spray your reel, always do so with
the lever in the "full" position. Also, your reel should never be "dunked" in water
to clean it. Like heavy spraying, this will eventually damage your reel.
Periodically check that all the screws are firmly tightened to prevent loss due to
engine/boat vibrations. Don't enclose reels in air-tight plastic bags for storage.
They will constantly trap moisture around the reels and promote damage.
We do recommend that your reel be thoroughly serviced at least once a year. A
disassembly, cleaning, check and re-lubrication will not only prolong the life of your
reel but will short stop any potential wear induced failures. An enclosed exploded
parts view and listing will help you if you choose to do this work yourself. Shimano
also maintains a nationwide network of factory service centers capable of
performing this work for you.
At least annually you should apply a coating of silicone or waterproof grease to the
main and pinion gears of your reel. Oil should be applied to the handle knob pivot,
lever pivot, strike stop button and main gear shaft.
The stainless steel ball
bearings on which the spool rides are shielded and enclosed within the reel. They
should be checked and oiled if necessary.
When not in use, back off the star drag tension and set the strike alert click "ON".
This will remove unnecessary tension from the drag components and still control
the line on the spool.
Your drag will last longer and run smoother if these
instructions are followed.
