Specifications

Key Features

• Rigid Aluminum Frame and Sideplate: Resists torque that can interfere with gear operation.
• Lube Port: Allows periodic lubrication without disassembling the reel. Recommended to use lightweight grease sparingly. Lubrication frequency depends on climate (less in colder, more in hotter).
• Powerlock™™ Instant Anti-Reverse: A one-way roller bearing prevents the reel handle from rotating backward for positive hooksets.
• Aluminum Nose Cone: Ported to reduce weight and allow airflow. The Free Flow™™ Line Guide is more open than conventional spincast reels, allowing line to flow more freely for longer casts.
• Easy Roller Pickup Pin: Incorporates a roller bearing to help reduce line twist during retrieval.
• Adjustable Star Drag: Located behind the handle, allowing precise drag adjustments based on fishing conditions.
• Offset Thumbbar: Designed with a slightly offset thumbbar for a more natural range of motion when casting.
• Oscillating Spool: Allows line to stack more evenly, maximizing casting distance and reducing line wear.

Reel Care and Lubrication

Your new reel is designed for years of dependable service. Periodic cleaning and maintenance are required for peak performance. Use lightweight oil for moving parts (bearings, bushings, handle joints, bail springs) and lightweight grease for the main drive gear and pinion gear. Use oils and grease sparingly, as too much can negatively impact performance. Avoid multipurpose oils, as they can attract dirt and dust, causing excessive wear.

After each trip, check for dirt or sand. If exposed to saltwater, rinse the entire reel in freshwater, remove the spool, dry with a soft cloth, and lubricate as described.
