Features and Operations Instructions
Rugged CNC-machined-aluminum frame
The frame of this reel was CNC-machined from solid aluminum bar
stock. It is extremely strong and will not ex under load. It has been treated
to prevent corrosion.
4 double-sealed stainless steel ball bearings
We used double-sealed stainless steel ball bearings in key locations
throughout the Seare reel. These bearings are designed to withstand
corrosion and keep debris out so your reel functions smoothly.
Low-profile audible bait clicker
The bait clicker is located on the palming sidecover. It can be turned on
by sliding the button downward.
Powerful star drag system
The Seare reel is equipped with a star drag system. It is located under
the handle on the right side of the reel. Drag power is increased as the star
is rotated forward.
Offset power handle
The Seare reel includes an adjustable offset power handle with a
comfortable egg-shaped knob. The handle has been anodized to protect
against corrosion.

Reel Care And Lubrication
Your new reel is designed to provide years of dependable service. But like any
other precision machine, periodic cleaning and maintenance is required for
continued peak performance.
Reels made today require both a lightweight oil and grease. Oil and grease should
be used sparingly; too much can have a negative impact on reel performance.
There are lightweight oils and greases made specically for shing reels that can
be found at basspro.com
As a rule of thumb, oils should be used to lubricate any moving part on the reel,
e.g. ball bearings, bushings, handle joints, bail springs, etc. Grease should be used
to lubricate the main drive gear and pinion gear.
We do not recommend using any multipurpose oils. Many of these oils have
properties that will attract dirt and dust to the internal parts. This may cause
excessive wear and reduce the life of the reel.
After each trip, the reel should be checked for dirt or sand. If it has been exposed
to saltwater, the spool should be removed and the entire reel rinsed in freshwater.
Dry with a soft cloth and lubricate the reel as described above.
Wash reel thoroughly after each use with warm, fresh water.
Loosen the star drag when not in use to extend the drag washer's life.
