Installation & Maintenance
Schematics: To ensure proper installation of the bail wire and return spring mechanism, please consult the PDF schematics at: www.reelschematic.com
Lubrication Recommendation: For optimal performance of the bail trip mechanism and roller, we recommend using Deuthlon reel lubricants. Their high-quality oil or light grease protects the bail pivots from wear and corrosion without gumming up in cold temperatures.
