Quick, simple, and to the point. Thanks for the instructions and information...
I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
Thank you so very much for this simple and easy to follow tutorial! My Caenan now runs noticeably smoother! 😃
Thanks for sharing the tips
thank you for the tutorial on using oil BC🙏🏻👍👍
Great info, thanks for posting.
Excellent video.

Thanks... This video give me everything about Shimano..
Thanx for the sharing 👍👍👍
Man, such a simple and easy video to learn from. Straight to the point!! Thanks
Nice tips
Thank you!
Good job thanks
I dont oil my reel often so this should help 👍
Thank you 🙏
Nice one, and they said you could not make a video under 20 minutes long. 😉
very useful
Nice, I just got this exact reel 2 days ago
I jus got one and their so sexyyy🤑
This reel looks nice, but I hate the feel when reeling/retrieving. I returned mine after trying it out a couple times. The retrieve is not very smooth. Ended up buying a used 13 Metanium for $180…which is one of my favorite all time reels due to smoothness, casting, lightweight, and more! I wouldn’t recommend any of the SLX reels due to their overall lower quality and performance. I’ve heard the SLX DC is good, but I’d rather spend money on a Japan made Shimano, even if it’s older and pre-owned.

Casual alert 📢
Speaking alot of BS hope nobody listened
@@iceicebabybass5711 I've had mine around six months and have had no issues with the retrieve...
I have over 20 Shimano reels, ( I would have twice as many, but, I was robbed, and I have given several away). Thanks for such simple instructions
@Nemesis 🇺🇸 I searched for months and I know it was not a fisherman but a ScumBag who was just a thief and I looked through pawn shops and put out a reward and notified the police. Their were things I received from my father before and after he passed away. It still hurts
@@pjsavagejr like it’s my fault someone broke into my garage🤷🏻♂️
@@pjsavagejr thanks captain obvious
I use Scorpion BFS, there are 2 oils in green and blue. so which part should I use for usage. thanks
Can you do for overhead reel like torium and Ocea Jigger please thanks
I would also oil the spool tension knob on my baitcaster, but I don't. Because, unfortunately, my baitcaster do not have a spool tension knob anymore...
Sangat membantu
i use slx dc 151, is it safe to use in the sea?
how am i supposed to do this with an atares 21 the tension knob cant be taken off
มาชมครับผม+1...ok
Like it
can make a video on oiling a bfs reel
Is it ok to do this to a shimano tranx 400??
I saw a video where a guy put lubricant on the brakes and the round drum where the little plastic brake parts ride. Is this right? Doesn’t seen right to oil a brake. Thanks
What oil should i use ?
What could I use instead of reel oil?
what mainline are you use bro?
I have a bit of an issue with this when I took the cap for the tension set I put it back on but my tension isn't setting now my buddy even tried it with his and it did the same thing
If it's a Shimano reel, there are two spacers, one found copper, one squareish fiber, copper goes against the spool tension cap, fiber over the top of the copper, use a small amount of reel grease to stick them where they belong, always make sure they are where they belong before placing it back on the reel
How would you do a dc
@ShimanoFish SEA: why so much bantam oil? I usually just add bantam oil to bearings, but I heard it’s better to used Shimano grease for the worm gear, thumb bar sides, etc. I feel like you would be mixing grease and oil by adding bantam oil to all the parts mentioned on the video.
It is better to use grease spray for certain parts. However it is perfectly fine to use the bantam oil instead because of the low viscosity
How would the spray get past the shield or seal of the bearing? I think TackleJunky81 has the correct idea. Remove the shield or seal, flush thoroughly to get all grease out and then run with oil only OR go with dry ceramic bearings.@@TrungLe-lw4zm
How about the gear
thank u.can u do for spinning reels?
when to do this after 3 or4 ,5 fishing sessions?
Take off handle by turning the opposite direction of how you’ll 🧵 when you reel. ( or some spin reels you have to take off the knob on the opposite side of you reel handle counter clockwise and by pulling the loose handle outwards it should slide out easy. Get some reel grease mostly it does come with a flat plastic looking flag or little brush and some do come with oil along with the grease. Then turn your drag the opposite way of how you tighten the drag so it’s loose it should come when it’s fully loose(the spool should be free now and pull up to get the spool out. Get the Grease (Bottle with brush or plastic dip flag) and put some grease on the metal spindle it should have a gear on there( Don’t take or mess with the little gear on top) just put grease on the parts of the little rod and your done with that part. After that get your oil so that you put one drops or two round cap the you took off to
@@yangntau thank u.
How often should I oil my reels? I m using the shimano spray oil and grease on my ocea. Thanks
I normally oil mine every 2-3 months, (you could probably get away with 5 months before feeling a big difference)
also, normally I use a cue tip around the spool rod, (the parts on the side of the spool) the worm gear (the peice that levels your line) and the whole that the spool rod goes into, (this removes dirt and makes the reel smoother!) After this, I'll just do what the video says
Hope this helps out and answers your question!👍
@@stellerate do you have to oil a brand new one
@@cheiffknife1518 I prefer to oil mine every 2-5 months, so unless you have used a freshwater reel in saltwater, you should be okay.
(Hope this helped out)👍
@@stellerate thanks man
@@cheiffknife1518 I don't believe they come pre oiled. Wether or not they do I always oil them when they come out of the box
I have a Shimano SLX-150XG and when I unwinded the side-cap, there was a piece of plastic (round on one side and square on the other side) inside the side-cap. Is it supposed to be there or was I supposed to remove it when I bought it? It's loose, and it's not attached to anything. Also, I can't remove the spool from the reel all the way. Is there a trick to it? Thank you for your help in advance!
Its suppose tp be there
@@f2pwhale890 thank you for letting me know
@@jamesnaruke8647 np
Your spool tension will absolutely run like crap or not at all without both of those pieces where they're supposed to be.
Is it ok to use greese?
Grease doesn't penetrate like oil plus it will attract more dirt when out "in the open". Grease is more suited for enclosed areas like the gears on a reel. For the same reasons you grease the inside of the hubs on a bicycle but put oil rather than grease on the chain..
But shouldn't I grease the worm-gear not oil it? Just some conflicting information out there.
Grease it.
As I’ve answered this question before. Ideally you should use grease spray or grease, however the bantam oil can still be used. Please note due to its low viscosity
Wait! I thought you were suppose to put grease on the worm gear and oil on all bearings? I’m totally confused now.
Bantam oil is low viscosity and perfectly fine to be used for worm shaft. However if you have recommend grease, use that instead.
how to grease main gear & pinion gear
That’s a more advanced topic as it would require the disassembly process which varies from reel to reel. Plus it is not considered “basic maintenance”. You can find plenty of good resources from good service houses for example MTCW, iOS, etc
Bape harge sbotol minyak tu?
rm30
I just purchased an SLX DC. Should I oil it right now or should I wait a month or two
Its been my 4th trip and i hear a grinding noice. So i oiled it now it works without grinding. You may want to oil it.
@@thereelingredhead6276 Ok thank you
😳😳😳😋😋😋
Can i use singer oil?
No bro , tak digalakan , sy ada pengalaman guna singer oil ni , aku pakai lexima camion & komodo , dua2 jadi tak smooth sebab minyak singer
@@lexxyfitnesssabahans5242
thank you bro. but i want answer from shimano.
@@rudyabdulmajid7991 try to refer the previous video , aku rasa cikgu shafie ada dah bahas pasal ni
@@rudyabdulmajid7991 FISHING BUDDY ACADEMY
What reel is this?
Is a shimano slx xt!
Shimano USA has maintenance videos, and they are ADAMANT about NOT oiling or greasing the spool shaft ends, saying tolerances are so tight, oiling or greasing actually hinders the spool spin, they recommend cleaning them, cleaning the inside of pinion gear and b-plate side and reassembly dry....so which is it????
It depends on the type of oil. Bantam has low viscosity so after a month or two, it is perfectly fine to apply a drop on each side of the shaft without impacting the performance of it.
can i use wd40？
Wd4 could be used to loosen reels up, however if I were you, I would spend $5 to get some abu Garcia reel oil, it's easy to use, and it's made for reels, however I do know of some people who have used wd40 to clean their reels! (If you do, just use it sparingly!)
Wd-40 should be against the purpose of oiling, it should be for cleaning old grease only
Nah dude get some real reel oil or a thin bearing oil
should i oil every time after catch ?
definitely no, do a deep clean on your reel once a year, and small cleanings greesing 3-4 times a year
@@JdwagDoesStuff what's wrong with oil every time after catch?
На бесконечник лёгкое масло?
Вы серьёзно??!
У вас везде одно масло. Это неправильно.
Не повторять. Опасно!
Shimano...good oil...but pls change that oil recipient....it's so bad...
Are you OCD? Lol
