Although Abu Garcia reels are built to last a lifetime, at least once a year your baitcasting reel should be disassembled for a thorough cleaning and relubrication. For optimum casting distance and overall performance, apply a small amount of Abu Garcia Silicote reel oil and reel lube as described in your owner's manual. If you are not comfortable performing this task yourself, check out the Service Center section of this web site.
