| I have a feeling I am going to be told to ask Pikemaster but recently on my revo toro 60 hs, every time I turn the reel handle it makes a squeak sound. You can only imagine how relaxing that sounds turning your reel handle 50 times per cast reeling in bucktails. Squeak, squeak, squeak, repeat lol....any help or tips to make this stop guys? Thanks for the help in advance! |

| Did you just take the side plate off and then pull the spool out? Where was the rust located i the reel. The squeak sounds like its coming from just under the handle on a right handed reel. |

The Anti / Rev bearing is rusted and or dry and needs to be flushed and reoiled.
The reel needs a Detail, Tune and Relube, $25.00 plus $8.00 for return shipping. I will be in Canada Aug 15-Sept 6 so send it to me after I get back, or oil it yourself. The A/R Bearing is under the Handle, so U will have to take the side plate off to relube the bearing. |

I did exactly what pikemaster suggested.
Did it work?
Some of our Revo's squeak a bit, and it seems like it's coming from the grip on the handle. It's almost impossible to get any sort of grease in there. Oil works, but only until it rains, and if you put too much in there it leaks out all over the grip. |
