Features and Operations Instructions
Rugged Graphite Frame
The Gold Cup reel is made with an extremely durable and lightweight
composite material. This material will not corrode.
4 Sealed Stainless Steel Ball Bearings
We used double-sealed stainless steel ball bearings in key locations
throughout the Gold Cup reel. These bearings are designed to withstand
corrosion and keep debris out so your reel functions smoothly.
Audible Bait Clicker
The bait clicker is located on the palming sidecover. It can be turned on by
sliding the button downward.
Powerful Star Drag System
The Gold Cup reel is equipped with a star drag system. It is located under
the handle on the right side of the reel. Drag power is increased as the star
is rotated forward.
Stainless Steel Line Guide
A non-disengaging stainless steel line guide has been included on the Gold
Cup reel to help manage the line lay on the spool. The line guide moves
from side to side as the handle is turned.

Care and Lubrication
Your new reel is designed to provide years of dependable service. But like any other
precision machine, periodic cleaning and maintenance is required for continued
peak performance.
Reels made today require both a lightweight oil and grease. Oil and grease should
be used sparingly; too much can have a negative impact on reel performance.
There are lightweight oils and grease made speci cally for shing reels that can be
found at basspro.com and cabelas.com
As a rule of thumb, oils should be used to lubricate any moving part on the reel, e.g.
ball bearings, bushings, handle joints, bail springs, etc. Grease should be used to
lubricate the main drive gear and pinion gear.
We do not recommend using any multipurpose oils. Many of these oils have
properties that will attract dirt and dust to the internal parts. This may cause
excessive wear and reduce the life of the reel.

After each trip, the reel should be checked for dirt or sand. If it has been exposed to
saltwater, the spool should be removed and the entire reel rinsed in freshwater. Dry
with a soft cloth and lubricate the reel as described above.
