I have looked at the tutorials several times, but it does not show the other
half of the reel. Is there a tutorial to show how to service the other bearings and gears ?
One more thing. Is Avet red grease good for packing the other bearings?
Thanks.....
this was a quickie. i never did the crank side. i'm not sure i would ever have time. :-\
This guy did it? http://kayak-angling-ireland.org/rigging/reel-servicing/avet-mxjmxl-sx-reel-service-tutorial/
What's your 2cents on his tutorial?
Nice tutorial from Ireland with some very good advice re reel care and preventative maintenance.
AlanT gets a mention too. ;)
very cool. stuff like that is really great to see! when i first started this, no one else was taking the time to post tutorials with this level of detail. it is truely nothing special. it just takes a good camera, a few tools and a rainy afternoon with the wife out of the house so that you won't get detoured. anybody, and i seriously mean anybody, can do this! it is not that hard. ;D
Very good. Scratch that reel off the list now. :)

Not forgetting handling camera with oily fingers... I've to buy my wife her own personnel camera, before posting any procedure to strip my reel ...>_<...
