Nice work brother! I'm a fan of grease on the worm gear especially because of the hotter months. Oil doesn't offer enough protection and the hot summer days will really thin it out, but whatever works for ya man. Again great job. 👊💪
Everyone reading this, please go check out TACKLEJUNKY81s video on cleaning a baitcaster. His series is the most comprehensive out there and it has helped a LOT of people. Thanks for watching brother 👊 I'm glad to hear you use grease too. I've done it that way for years and not had an issue. Wanted to try it on this one because so many folks are adamant about only using oil on the worm gear.
TackleJunky81 grease in gears only. Isn’t that the rule?
@@YankeeTankerOutdoors I'll grease other areas like Debo did in this video, but I never oil a gear...always grease for me.
The 2 washers at 17:35 are called wave washers.
TackleJunk
As a mechanical engineer, I must say that you did an AWESOME job on this video! Great attention to detail with really good video quality and clear explanation. Kudos to you on this video and part one.
Thank you man, that means a lot! Appreciate you watching 👊👊👊
Don't care that this was a year old. I just started fishing a casting reel and this was extremely informative and helpful. Thank you
had to be probably THE best, in depth, informative breakdown I've ever seen man! nice job
Thanks man, appreciate you watching. Hope this helps folks out. 👊
I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
Who's watching in 2021? I watched this not needing to do any cleaning on my reels.. Lol by far the BEST reel clean ect video I've watched to date.. Thanks Debo 🎣🇺🇸🎣
Means a lot man! Thank you for watching!
This video did a lot of things for me: scared me, educated me, and prepared me. I'm a little bit intimidated to clean my curado (which desperately needs it) but now I'm prepared to give it a shot. Great video.
One of the best cleaning videos I've ever watched! No wasted time and extraneous chit chat. Great video clarity as well.
This has to be one of the best tutorials I've ever seen for a baitcaster. I have this same exact reel, although it must be a newer revision because a couple things were different on it. But for the most part it was identical and this help me immensely to clean and reassemble it for the first time. Thanks a ton.
This video just saved my pro max from the trash after 3 hrs of bipolar moods. Good stuff.
Hahah yes! Glad it helped out man!
Thanks to these videos I had the confidence to take apart and fix that messed up fuego reel I told you about. Put some braid on it and caught a couple today on the warpig lipless. Thanks brother!
That Tutorial is really in point. Thank you from Germany.
My god. Thank you for making this video. I appreciate you!
Outstanding video! Thanks for posting.
Another excellent and educated video by DEBO. Thank you!
I taken reels apart plenty of times before. I've never taken them completely apart as you did in the first video and this one. Very detailed thank you very much
This video is the best reel clean and lube video on the TUBE.. thanks
Hahah thanks man 👊👊👊
What an awesome little set of videos. My LFS is brand new, but now I'm looking forward to the first reel maintenance.
Awesome! This is now part of my reference library. Like the way those bent tweezers and channel locks make taking off and replacing those otherwise iffy parts really doable. Great stuff!
Yea, those tweezers were a game changer lol! Thanks for watching my friend 👊
Tanks for a good educational video, a complete how to clean and lube a baitcaster, probably the best one I’ve seen! 👍
Awesome video! I followed along with parts 1 and 2 while disassembling my Tournament Pro Speed Spool LFS to clean, oil and grease it. It was my first time doing all of it and it was very easy with the help of your videos. Thanks!
I took my first reel apart and cleaned it thanks to your videos .. helped a ton and was very easy to follow your instructions 👊👊👊
Hands down the best "complete" disassembly (see video Part 1) as well as reassembly and how to properly oil and grease a baitcasting reel video on youtube! I'm glad I found it.
Cool, nothing like a finely tuned machine, you've got that thing running like a Swiss Watch!
Yea, take care of your gear and it will take care of you!
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing.
Great video DEBO! Thanks for taking the time and effort to put this together. I know it was tedious and time consuming, but well worth the effort for us. You rock!
You're welcome my friend. Third time filming was a charm. Had mic and sound issues the first two times I filmed it...😑😥
Saved to faves! Thanks for the vid!
great information as always Debo
Fantastic tutorial. Thank you!
Thanks for the video series Debo. I had this weird tick in my lews custom black. Got the side plate off, and figured out where it was and got rid of it mostly. The tick was there when I got it.
Love the breakdown man. Would be great to see a spinning reel version
Great job on maintaining a baitcaster. I have done my own many times in the past, but just could not be bothered most of the time, so my reels get a lot of use and little loving. I should really pay more attention to doing it regularly. Must be 15 years since my little Abu Ambassadeur 2500c saw a clean, still does the job, but would probably appreciate a bit of loving.
Nice! It's always interesting to see how people do maintenance on their reels.
Thanks man, appreciate you watching 👊
What a great video man. I’m new to baitcasters this year and I bought 3. I got 2 Lew’s and a Johnny Morris platinum signature combo. I’ll be using these videos to take them down and clean them this winter!
Thanks for the awesome tutorial man!
Thank you so much for the video!!!! This clears up so many questions!!!!
You're welcome and thanks for watching!
I can always count on Debo for high quality content! Thank you!
Thank you for watching man 👊👊👊
Awesome tutorial! Thank you
Thanks man, seeing one of these broke down helped a lot in troubleshooting my Depth Master. Taking mine apart now.
Thanks for the great video did this today really helped me out.
Another great and helpful video. I do eventually plan on jumping in and cleaning my reels myself, but I can see myself pausing the video often to catch up, LOL. Thanks Debo!
Debo thanks you, this video gave me the courage to attempt cleaning my bait casters, and it was easier than I thought it would be. Great video.
Awesome man! A little maintenance really helps them over the long run! Tight lines 👊
Great video and information
Great video, thanks for sharing
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you.
You're welcome! Hope it helped!
Thanks for the video man it's the most through i have ever seen and very well explained
Thanks for watching man, hope it can help folks out. Have a good weekend!
Best torturial I've ever seen! Just what I needed! Thank you so much!
great video for us Lew's reel owners
Amazing tutorials man. Just what I needed to dive into my Lew's Speed Spool that is giving me issues!
Thanks for watching and hope the vid helps 👊
Just wanted to say thanks. I needed to make sure my drag washer wasnt upside down, and it was. Fixed, thanks o your video!
Love. You man I took my bait caster part like four months ago and I lost a piece and I forgot how to put it together thank you man
Great video Debo: The close ups shots were first-class and explaining each step of reassembly was excellent. Your videos got me started doing major cleanings to my older reels. The best thing is the memories these old reels bring back to me. I had to update my lubes so I order a new supply from Bass Pro. I ordered Penn Precision reel grease and Penn reel oil. The grease is dark green and extremely sticky. I also got a bottle of Reel Magic. This stuff does everything. The list of uses follows. Cast farther, Reduces line memory, U.V. Protection, Reduces Corrosion, Reduces icing, Ozone Safe, Non-sticky, Anti-Static, Non-Staining, Odorless when dry, Use for Fresh or Saltwater. It revitalizes jig and spinnerbait skirts. The amazing thing is it does work really well for everything they claim. I think you should try it they sell this stuff by gallon so that should tell something.
I do have a can of reel magic. I use it whenever I spool up a reel. I'm really bad about reapplying through the year though. Thanks for watching my friend, appreciate all of your support!
Dude. Amazed. Well done.
Thanks brother, always appreciate your support 👊👊👊
I did mine the other day took it down put it back together nice.
Thanks for the informational video!
You're welcome, hope it helps folks out!

Thanks for watching man. I hope this helps folks out. I will certainly try to keep making helpful vids 👊
Nice vid man I love your video thank for the how to vids
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Nicely done sir.
Thanks man, greatly appreciate your support 👊
Thank you, this video is very helpful. I have a abu garcia revo4 inshore left handed and last month I dropped it in sandy saltwater, I send it to a repair shop and I still dont like how it feels. The repair shop try to sell me another baitcaster (very expensive).
Once I get the proper tools I will give it a try.
Very good tutorial
I really enjoyed these videos, very in depth and informative. I’ll definitely come back to this video when I get brave enough to clean my own lol. Great video Debo 👊🏻
Thanks man, really hope they help folks out. Have a good weekend!
You to buddy 👊🏻
I just got my baitcaster 5 months ago and had never cleaned it this tutorial really helped great job
Awesome, glad it helped👊👊👊
Good stuff. Thanks bro!
You're welcome, thank you for watching!
Thanks bro was great 👍🏻
HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE LIKES?!?!? very in-depth vid thanks so much, helped a lot!!👍🏼
Awesome, hope it helps man!
Nice video, for the small pieces I use the Abu grease, for the gears I use Yamaha Marine grease and for oil I use REM oil. I never thought about de greasing the bearings, looks like I have a new project before ice thaws
Thanks for watching man. Yea, there are 100 different ways to skin this cat 😂
Dand I grease that rolling bearing instead of oil it on all of my baitcasters.
Anyway great video. I was hoping to see what you did on that rolling bearing but I learned a lot more. You are very thorough in your videos.
Awesome vid
Thanks for watching 👊
Seems like all Lews have bad drag washer problems. I thought my reel was toast until I changed it out. And awesome video I just recently got into taking apart baitcasters and this really helped where I need to lube. Thanks man. I subscribed!
Tq sir,very good service.
great channel
Good video 👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Debo. I just bought a brand new lews lfs with the super pinion and I noticed that there it a little bit of reverse between when trying to reel.
Thank you very much.
When reassembling, does the clutch sleeve or ball bearing go on first?
I really like the yamalube marine blue grease from Yamaha. Super sticky, water and corrosion resistant
Nice! I haven't tried that.
Amazing how to. Things to remember: go slow polishing anything with a Dremel or drill with buff pads. You do not want to create heat on any of the metal or gears. Also they sell a pinion remover on eBay. It's a must have if you plan on servicing your own things. Have a good one brother.
Great tips, and careful to not over tighten the line pawl cap because many will crack.
Too loose is always better than too tight if you plan on taking anything apart several times.
Yea, most just have a plastic cap that screw on so far and many will turn it just far enough it cracks, especially if the reel is a few years old.
Absolutely, snug but not tight. Appreciate you leaving that tip for folks. As always, appreciate your support 👊
Hey Debro,
Another awesome vidya! Thank you so much for this very thorough lesson. You make doing this maintenance look easy! You got some skillz #Debonator!
#debosfishing #DeboNation
Thanks man, always appreciate your support. I'm going to have to get some DeboNation shirts hahah👊
Greetings from the UK 👍🏼 You made it look easy!! Currently getting into BFS and have the Fishband PW-100 from AliExpress. The bearings are covered in grease! while it seems to cast well do you think it would be good to clean the grease out and oil them instead or would it be better to try and find some upgraded bearings?
Very informative. Did i miss a drop of oil on the black knobs on the handle?
Helped me so much. My reel runs better than when I bought it
Awesome, glad this helped out 👊
Debo would you recommend doing this for expensive reels I have a pro ti from lews and just want to know if the parts and assembly are pretty much the same.
One more question I have is using baitcaster in brackish water does that kill the reel overtime I mainly use it in fresh tho I just don’t know how bad any salt will mess it up I only did that a couple times.
Thanks 'you just saved me.
So with degreasing the bearings with brake clean, ive been noticing the bearings are louder when installed back in with the 1 drop of oil. Is this common since we removed the grease the factory used? Everything spins great just noticeably louder when freespinning the reel. Appreciate the great video! was able to finally fully clean all of my reels after many years of use. All are like brand new! ( using stock bearings still for now )
So last year I bought to ardent apex elites at a show. Just like a lot of people I look for deals and have a miss mosh of gear. I took one of those reels apart and saw the amount if grease used and was in awe. It was even hard. So I did a quick and dirty cleaning and re greasing. The night and day difference in the two was crazy. So I also have two rods I need to pick up reels for. I'm thinking I want to do Slx fir both but I might do an Slx and a LFs. I try not to spend really over a 120 on reels. I got another kid on the way so I gotta think of family first
One daiwa fuego and one shimano slx, there you have two fantastic baitcasters.
It truly does make q difference to have a freshly cleaned reel. Both of those reels are great options. Yes, stay within your budget. I definitely understand how that goes with a family and kids. Appreciate you watching my friend!
@@Benjamin-S both of those are great picks too!
Huge thanks to you bro , you save my reel ❤️, problem in my push button as it not coming back after starting reeling in line. But i think now i can solve this problem. My another problem is how to use centrifugal breaks on my cedros saltwater cj 273 lx reel. I can open left side plate and get access to breaks but can't understand how to increase or decrease, plz help me
Hey I've got a question for ya. The bushing that slides on between the main shaft and the roller bearing should be orientated which way? There are flat spots on one end amd the other end is round on the inner diameter part not the outer circumference. Thanks for any help. This is by far the best complete takedown of a baitcaster!!!!!!!
Im a spincast fella myself, but im cleaning and lubing an old Quantum Classic Exspress for fathers day
my reel wouldnt cast and this helped me fix it i was losing mind before thank u
That's awesome to hear man! Glad you got it working again!
