Lubricating Islander Reels

[pescador]

I want to pull apart my Islanders and lube them properly. Any tips. I've got the lubricating kit they recommend with the oil and grease. Never done it before.

I just bought two reels this year but haven't done them yet. I did pull a step by step off their website that looks easy to follow for the first timers.....lol It's under the DOWNLOADS header on the Islander Site......

Ok, I'll do the same then. I just noticed as I was reeling in a couple of fish this weekend that the ratchet sound seemed a bit muffled. Not sure what the cause was but thought I'd pull them apart and look. Thanks....

Hey Guys,

There is this tutorial on their website; no diagrams but a description. I actually used this basic idea for when I did my Trophy's.
