Tidemaster Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Is it normal that the line roller doesn't rotate freely as line is being pulled off the spool?tried oiiing the plastic sleeve inside the roller,tried backing off the small nut that attaches the bail wire.any suggestions?

charloots Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 The bushing (sleeve) must be longer than the roller in order for the roller to spin freely. Is it a new roller, or did this just start to happen recently? I had to (carefully) grind a new roller down last year and that solved my problem.

Shadman Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Gary, I have a Daiwa that does the same exact thing...never could get it to rotate, but the bail closes just fine anyway....My reply would be I think that "It's not broke, so fogetaboutit" ,but I would like to hear anyone elses reply , also........Take care my friend and keep in touch Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
