Avet Reels
CARE AND SERVICE
Care and Service
For maximum durability, reasonable care must be given fro ultimate performance
of the reel. After each fishing trip the reel should be cleaned. Rinse the reel in fresh water
to remove accumulated salt deposits. Dry moister from the reel and sparingly lube exposed
mechanisms.
You should use a high quality spray lubricant sprayed on to rag to wipe down the outer
surfaces of the reel to protect it and displace any moisture.do not spray lubricant directly
on the reel. Spray lube at as a penetrating solvent which will dissolve and flush away the
grease and lubricant. Your Avet reel should be stored in a cool and dry place, DO Not store
in sealed plastic bag or airtight container as the reel may develop condensation. Always be
sure to store reel with the lever drag in free position to release the pressure from various
components of the reel, this will also allow the drag surface and internal parts if they are wet.
Periodically examine your reel for loose screws of fittings and take action if necessary.
We highly recommend to send you Avet reel for service to our service department once every
season. ( please check our website or call us for service fees ).
For self-service, use the part schematics listed in our web site. Select clean, well lit
work area and
proper tools. Organize the parts in order in which you remove them, don’t rely
jut on your memory. An old toothbrush, mineral sprits, denatured alcohol or common dish
soap and water are safe alternatives to clean and degrease parts. When reassembling the
reel, lubricate the frictional surfaces of moving parts using a high quality waterproof grease
And such as the Avet Ultra Grease and Avet Lube. Do not over lubricate, as lube in the wrong
places such as the drag surfaces can cause poor performance. Sparingly apply grease to
high friction components like gear teeth, cam surfaces and clicker assembly. The spool
bearings should be sparingly lubed with a high quality oil like Avet lube, with the excess
bottle away to avoid flinging and contaminating the drag surface when the spool spines. The
drag
surface don’t wear out on Avet reel, and only need replace in extreme cases. If the drag
feels lees than perfect, a simple cleaning will refurbish it to like new performance.
Remove the bearing from the spool, run the spool and carbon drag surface under warm
tap water, with drop of dish washing soap and a tooth brush, vigorously scrub the carbon
surface to remove any contaminates. Hold the spool under the warm tap water and continue
