@@brickcity9mm327 He puts grease on every screw so his work is just amazing - the screws are kept for a long time and do not break as a result of encountering salt water - it has already happened to me and it is definitely unpleasant, what's he disassembles the whole reel and assembles back, I really like his work style
Sounds good and thanks. Betty's and nicks on eBay is a good source. Try doing a search for a specific part number or for Shimano reel parts... their user ID is boat0501. Hope that helps.
Awesome, very helpful vid! Thanks for posting... I used this vid to service my 8000D. Does shimano sell the Baitrunner Shaft as a spare? My one where the clutch clips onto the pin on the shaft, the pin sheared off, so the plate just dangles loosely on the gear...
Thanks for watching! Glad to hear it helped! Sorry to hear about the cracked shaft. Yes, you can buy it separately. Check the schematics for the part number and search eBay or email me at tsgreelservice@gmail.com. I'm not sure if I have any.
TSG. ANother excellent video. I tell everyone about your channel. I have a Penn 4600 Live Liner. Its in new condition. I've never fished it as I have heard they are a nightmare to fix. What's your opinion on the 4600LL
Thanks for watching! Good to hear, but you'll still need to periodically service/get them serviced to help prevent potentially costly repairs down the road. That being said, many reels can last many years with good after-use cleaning habits and minimally invasive general servicing. More vids to come.
On my 8000D, where the knob meets the handle is bound up and does not rotate very freely. I tried removing the plastic “Shimano” cover on the end of the knob, assuming I could access a bolt to remove the handle, only to realize that whole assembly seems riveted together. Any suggestions on how to get the knob turning freely again?
Thanks for checking out the video! Yes, I believe that handle is a one piece without screws. You can try oiling the top and bottom of the knob shaft and just working the oil down by rotating the knob SEVERAL times. Hopefully, that does the trick.
Thanks for watching. If you're talking about the screws at the pivot points, there's possible built up corrosion in and around the holes. See the part of this video where I work on the bail assembly. Hope that helps.
@@TSGReelService i don’t mean the corrosion ...sorry I meant that the bail holder where you put those screws left and right can’t be tightened they keep spinning cause the holes are made of plastic i think ...what do you think about bigger size screws?? it will be ok ?
@@Silentkiler19 I'm referring to those screws on the left and right of the bail wire. If it's not corrosion then try adding a shim or a little washer between the bail wire arm pivot points and the head of the screw on each side. If the screws that are in there came with the reel, I wouldn't recommend trying a different size. Hope that helps.
Thanks for checking out the video. Hopefully, you were able to get it back together. Tonight's scheduled video is actually on the 12000D, so keep an eye out for it. Spread the word about the channel.
My spool isn’t going up and down when reeling and can’t figure out if it’s suppose to or not. Everything seems smooth on reel and in good condition. Do these not go up and down when reeling
Thanks for checking out the video. Yes, the spool is supposed to go up and down. Check out my video library for videos on how to fix a reel that does not oscillate (go up and down) Hope that helps.
@@TSGReelService thanks. I’ll have to check it. I took everything apart and found a free floating round gear and free floating bent spring so I think that’s my problem but too far in and screws and parts everywhere fml
You're welcome. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Take it to your local repair shop to see if they can right the ship for you. Better to eat the repair cost than lose the reel.
I imagine the following conversation happened: Shimano baitrunner reel product manger “what are we going to do with all these extra parts?” Shimano architect “hey, I have an idea…”

You very good at serving reels good job man
Great video. With your guidance, I was able to service my own 8000D. Thank you!
You're welcome and thanks for watching! Glad to hear it helped. More vids to come. Spread the word about the channel.
Will do! BTW...who do you recommend as a parts supplier for these reels?
Since I use them from my Sea-Doo, my reels take a saltwater beating. 🎣😎

Thanks for your continued support, Scott! The 4600LL.... they can be tricky to work on. Hopefully, you never have to open it up.
Hey Scott. Got a Slammer 760L in and thought of you. Keep an eye out for the video.
@@TSGReelService Will do. I'm a bit apprehensive about popping mine open. Can't wait to see the insides
@@porkchop955 no worries, I understand.
After watching this video, I promise to take good care of my baitrunners to never have to take them apart. Seems like so many parts...

@@TSGReelService How does one service a fishing reel? I never done that before.
@@MrSea123456 if that is truly your question, you should probably take it to your local repair shop instead.

Do you do this for a service , if so how do I contact you
I do local reels. You can reach me at tsgreelservice@gmail.com
