Prevention of poor-quality operation of a spinning reel begins with respect for it: storage and transportation should be carried out only in a special case. This will protect against external mechanical damage. In addition, exposure to ultraviolet radiation has a detrimental effect on the fishing line.

At the close of the season, it is also imperative to service the coil.

To carry out preventive measures, you will need assembly instructions, which are included in the set of a proprietary spinning reel. In addition to her, you will need some tools: screwdrivers, a set of tweezers, brushes, cotton swabs, gasoline for lighters (you can replace with white spirit, alcohol or ether), lubricants: liquid oil for external elements, and thick, which will be needed to process parts with full disassembling the coil.
