I, generally, use a ratcheting, interchangeable regular-sized screwdriver for the initial loosening of screws. Here's a link to the brand I use:

Get some additional, varying sizes Flathead and Phillips bits while you're at it.
The adjustable wrenches I use (instead of hex nut wrenches) are Husky, but these (with the red insert) work very well... 6-inch will be used the most:

If you prefer to use hex nut wrenches, I'd recommend angled/offset ones, like these:

or a pass-through socket wrench set, like this:

On the screw in the reel handle, soak the crap out of it for a couple of weeks. Use Aerokroil. And spray it weekly and be patient.

Awesome video! Can’t wait to take mine apart now. Any chance you know where’s the best place to buy the drag washers at? Also, any chance you know the bearing type or sizes. I lost the drag washers when I attempted this years ago. Now that I still have some time with this Quarantine I can do this peacefully. Thanks in advance!!

Hey, great video! I have a two 750ss that need a lot of love so I am wanting to service them myself. Can you tell me what type of oil and greases you recommend? I have seen you use two greases and an oil on this video. Also, where do you recommend sourcing the new drag washers and what do you use to degrease and clean all the components before assembly?

@TSGReelService 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I have my personal preferences for grease/oil. You can use any that is designated for use in reels. You can find Penn parts/drags at mysticparts.com. Regarding cleaning methods, I use a myriad of things... you can view my other videos to see some of them. I'll also be doing a documented cleaning and rebuild of a 9/0 at some point in the future.... after work slows down. Good luck and spread the word!

I have a slight problem after my reassembly. Now for some reason the bail hits the handle. Any idea how to fix this?

@TSGReelService 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! If everything's installed correctly, it sounds like you have a bent bail. You can try reshaping it until it doesn't hit anymore (usually bending the bail the bail wire upwards slightly will do the trick on these reels, but be careful not damage the bail arm or line roller assembly in the process), or you could purchase a new bail wire. Hope that helps.

The handle on my 7500 SS won’t fold, and the screw is super tight any suggestions to free up the handle so it folds?

@TSGReelService 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for reaching out. First, you have to remove the from the reel. Then you can soak the elbow in oil. Didn't work? Heat up THE ELBOW to about 150F, then put it in the freezer for a couple of hours..... repeat a few times while oiling after each freezer extraction and heat treatment.... should work. Keep trying to flex the handle after each round.... you can screw it into the reel to help facilitate this, but be careful.

@TSGReelService 3 ай бұрын

@@mikekarpiak5286 Yes, it can be a tough one to break.... lots of salt and subsequent corrosion happens inside there if you don't regularly play with the handle bend or service them.... even washing them down after every trip doesn't always help. You can try directly heating the collar and pivot and spraying it down with oil to help it penetrate and break up the corrosion, but it's tricky if you've never done it before. I'm hesitant to show how it's done on video, as there's lots to be left in interpretation, as every situation is different, but here's a video from an OG that shows something similar if you want to try (focus on the heating part and be sure to oil the pivot from both sides.... several attempt may be needed): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n8Vmf7qByJvXlKs.html
