B. Using a 1-3/8 inch socket wrench, slowly
tighten the reel-bearing adjustment nut until

The reel bearings do not require
preload. Overtightening the reel-bearing
adjuster nut will damage the reel bearings.
4. Tighten the setscrew securing the bearing
adjuster nut to the bearing housing.
Note:
Torque the nut to 1.4 to 1.7 N∙m (12 to
