I often have to place a metal rod on the spool shaft, hold the sideplate and give the metal rod a good whack, and the spool shaft pops out of the side plate.  Note that I'm hitting the spool shaft from the outside in the center of the cam bearing.  Make sure that the metal rod is centered and in contact with the spool shaft.

This may be a good indication that the pressure plate bearing is rusted to the spool shaft.

I hope this helps.

I've tried hit the shaft harder, but still not working, my question is, is that save to hit the shaft as hard as i can to make the spool pops out? Or there is another way? Thx

It is likely a rust issue between the shaft and plate bearing.

However, be careful getting too aggressive with the force and hitting -- or your day may be spoiled.

And although you may yet need to order parts from Accurate -- with patience, all may be saved, cleaned up, and work as good as new.  The materials these reels are made of are of high quality -- and if not tweaked, will clean up well.

Good luck & let us know how it turns out,

Fred

I do not hit the shaft.  I use a solid SS rod, similar to the punches that Alan identified.  I place SS rod on the spool shaft, and impact the SS rod.  That way the rod gets the impact and the rod transfers the force to the spool shaft almost as if it's one piece.

The Eclip may have pushed a ridge on the shaft (happens a lot when very high drags are used). If so you will want to clean up the shaft where the Eclip slot is - Use a small file . this will make it a lot easier to reassemble the cam bearing on the shaft.
