Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the reel, ensure it is securely tightened to your rod seat using the reel foot. When spooling line, ensure you maintain even tension to avoid line twist. The handle can be adjusted by unscrewing the cap on the opposite side of the reel and swapping the handle position.
Care instructions:
- Rinse the exterior with a lightly dampened cloth after use in saltwater or dusty conditions.
- Periodically apply a light drop of high-quality reel oil to moving parts, such as the bail arm hinge and the handle pivot.
- Always store the reel in a dry place when not in use.
- Avoid submerging the reel in water or mud to keep internal gears protected.
