Out of curiosity, why is it adviced to keep the dog free of grease? Also, is there a particular reason why you use very little grease on the main gear?

I pack light grease into mine to keep out salt but if the grease is too stiff it can cause the AR dog to not engage.

I have found out that grease under the dog and around the dog lever can make you lose anti reverse.  This is not a defect, just a place not to put grease - use oil instead.

I have opened up many reels serviced by anglers and tackle shops to find a ton of grease everywhere. Usually the excess grease has caused the reel to fail, especially the drag. I suggest lightly greasing stuff and doing more quick services. If your idea of an ideal reel is one that is serviced once a year, you might find a benefit from such over greasing, not me.
