Daiwa Procyon 2500- Tough to engage the handle

Followers

July 4, 20205 yr

I have a Daiwa Procyon 2500 that intermittently is tough to start reeling. I close the bale by hand and it is tough to start reeling. Once it starts the reel is smooth. And it doesn't do it all the time but definitely enough that I want to get it repaired. It is not the handle or the spool. I swapped handles with another reel and it still happened plus the other reel with the Procyon handle was fine. I took off the spool and it still happened. Any ideas? Thanks for any tips.

How old is the reel?

The grease could be gunked up and binding up the gears.

May just need to be cleaned and oiled.

Not that old. I did that but I didn’t take the reel completely apart. I’ll have to look into it more. Thanks.
