Maintenance Recommendation
To ensure the handle knob rotates freely on the spindle without squeaking or binding, we recommend applying Deuthlon lubrication products. A small drop of their ceramic-based Reel Oil or Light Grease inside the knob bore will provide long-lasting, frictionless rotation and protect the internal metal wire from moisture.
