Hello

 

I'm waiting for a spool bearing set to come in. I noticed there is a seal. a very thin "O" ring.

Any advice as to the best way to remove them? Worried about breaking it.

 

thx

I use the soft sharp end of a plastic toothpick, "Doctor's BrushPicks"

You can push it behind the o-ring, it will curl and lift it. 

I also carry one in my spare reel box in case I need it for picking a braid backlash (never needed, knock on wood)

Old thread…. I know…. LoL

 

Do you know the size of o-ring needed in case it needs to be replaced??
