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 a water displacing lubricant such as WD-40 on to a rag
and wipe the reel down. These products will lift water and salt from the surface of the reel
allowing you to wipe away these deposits. 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 Shimano 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 and enclosed within the reel.
They should be checked and oiled if necessary.
When not in use, set the drag control lever at the "FREE" position and the strike alert click "ON".
These two simple steps remove unnecessary pressure from the drag components and still control
the line on the spool. Your drag will last longer and run smoother.
It is unfortunate, but true, that a very large percentage of the problems fishermen have with reels
are the result of the angler himself taking them apart and re-assembling them improperly.
Modern fishing reels are complex, sophisticated pieces of equipment which require a certain
amount of care when taking them apart and putting them back together. We recommend that
you use the services of your dealer and/or authorized Shimano warranty or service center should
your reel require repair.
If, however, you choose to service your own reels, a few basic guidelines should be followed in
order to keep them operating efficiently. They are:
1. When replacing the shield, be sure to push it down tightly. We recommend that you press the
shield as tight as possible and then tighten the screws. This secures the edges of the drag
washer. Loose installation will cause a jerky drag, so please be sure to follow these
instructions.
