| What could be attributing to this? Any ideas? I recently cleaned the reel and inspected it for any obvious issues, but I'm no reel guru.
Thanks |

Location: Latitude 41.3016 Longitude 88.6160 | Oil the spool bearings, the worm shaft and the spool braking system, if the reel still has a squeeling noise then it time for a reel Detailing, Tuning and Relubing, send it to me and for $25.00 plus any parts that are worn out, I"ll make it better then new. |

If not, you've probably got some dirt or something in a bearing from inspecting/cleaning or didn't put it back together right.
Rather than just add oil, I would recommend you degrease the bearings first with carb cleaner or something similar, blow them out with compressed air and then add a drop of oil. |

Location: Denmark | The most common source of loud squeeling sounds when casting is, when the coq reel are mounted dry. |

When our season ends (should be soon, this weekend could be my last outing) I have two Revo Toro's I'm going to need to send to you! |

When I do reel bearings I remove them from the reel and also remove a shield from one of the sides of the bearing and give them a Blast in the Bearing Blaster with Brake Cleaner and then run them in the Ultra Sonic Cleaner in Acetone for 30 mins, take them out and dry them with a hair dryer and spin them, if they do not spin free I will run them in the U/Sonic cleaner for another 30 mins, after that if they do not spin free I replace them. |
