SHIMANO NEXAVE 2500HGFI - Take Apart & Reel Maintenance TUTORIAL

[@Szuubs]

After dropping my reel while wading through a muddy river, my reel was running really rough. Now after following this video, everything is running nice and smooth - feels brand new. Appreciate the in-depth instructions, thank you!

@@Szuubs Sweet! Happy the video helped ya out! 👊🏽😃🎣🤙🏽

[@johnshepherd5673]

Your reel maintenance vids are the best I have seen. So helpful. Ty. 👌

[@WhereWeWild]

Thanks man! 👊🏽😃 That’s really nice of you to say and awesome to hear! I’m glad they are helpful to you! Haha never really know if people are enjoying them. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 But they are honestly some of my favorite videos to make because I can kind of just relax and just enjoy working on the reels. 🎣😎🤙🏽 Thanks again for the nice comment and thanks for watching 👊🏽☺️

[@geoffreymundy6960]

Great video guys!

[@WhereWeWild]

Thanks glad you enjoyed it! 👊🏽😊

[@twofouryul]

on minute 22:15 you remove the main shaft, got any tips for keeping the screw from becomming loose? I've had my reel for 5 months and had to take it apart 3 times already to tighten this screw.... great tear down btw

[@WhereWeWild]

The one at 26:25? Put some medium strength loctite on the screw, works well. 🤙🏽

[@twofouryul]

@@WhereWeWild very same one, thanks for the tip and heck of a fast response 🙂

[@WhereWeWild]

No problem man anytime. Appreciate you watching and hope you enjoy the rest of the channel 🎣👊🏽😊🤙🏽

I just bought some spider wire do you think I need to put a leader because I don’t know if the fish see it it’s like the green one it’s like what you have in the video

[@WhereWeWild]

Absolutely. Around here always use a clear leader! 😁🤙🏽

[@omargonzalez624]

I took my bell apart and trying to put it back together but caint manage to figure it out

[@WhereWeWild]

Just take it slow follow this step by step. You’ll get it! Also here is the schematic it tells you where every part goes. 😊🤙🏽 fishshop.shimano.com/collections/nex2500hgfi

[@AdrianMtz222]

So I did this and my reel spins both ways now… what did I do wrong

[@WhereWeWild]

Well I can’t know for sure what’s wrong, haha but that pretty much means your anti reverse isn’t working. There is a link in the video description for the schematic. I would take it all apart again and put it back together following the schematic and making sure every part is in the correct place and not damaged. Pain in the butt I know, but that’s the only way to figure it out. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@AdrianMtz222]

@@WhereWeWildthanks it’s weird be cause there is no switch on the reel either lol

[@WhereWeWild]

@@AdrianMtz222 Yeah I know hahaha I actually went over to look at the reel when I first saw your comment lol couldn’t remember if it had the switch 🤔😂 Was hoping that was the easy fix for ya but yeah they’ve kind of stopped making them that way. Something just has to be slightly out of place man. Those little metal pieces inside the black cap maybe if you messed with that little 4th screw, or something not seated or lined up with the gears. You’ll find it. 👊🏽😎

[@unclepauly3205]

@@WhereWeWildI put mine back together and have the same issue. I believe you missed a step in the video.

[@AdrianMtz222]

@@unclepauly3205 man i threw that shit away ngl i had enough of it haha good reel tho

[@adt83live]

Awesome, I appreciate you making this video 👍

[@WhereWeWild]

No prob man thanks for watching, hope it helped ya out 👊🏽😊

[@jacobbrisson7371]

I can reel my reel clockwise and counterclockwise what should I do? I also don’t have the switch on my reel that makes it possible to reel both ways. Any tips would be greatly appreciate

[@WhereWeWild]

Sounds like the anti reverse. It’s the part in this video we start taking off at 16:32. We didn’t really show the inner workings of it in this video sorry about that, but you just want to make sure everything in there is sitting correctly and in good shape. Here is a good video I found of what they look like and how they should be put together. Hope it helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3WupqtpgN6VeKcsi=rRSRWI4WHfdxaUwk

@@WhereWeWild it worked thank you

[@WhereWeWild]

@@jacobbrisson7371 Nice! No problem. 👊🏽😊

[@revincortez5886]

i did the same thing but my reel feels rough when cranking, like the main gear is touching something

[@WhereWeWild]

I would just take it back apart and make sure everything is in the right place. Main gear is pushed all the way in, the piñon gear is all the way seated and meets the main gear correctly, check the bearings, make sure oscillating gear is seated in the slide, everything man. As well as check the teeth on the piñon and main gear to make sure they aren’t damaged.

Can i buy pinion gear and oscillating gear for reel shimano nexave C3000HG?

[@WhereWeWild]

Definitely here’s the link to the parts from Shimano or can try eBay… 🤙🏽 fishshop.shimano.com/collections/nexc3000hgfi

[@abrahammazat9554]

How often should I do this? (Obviously depends on usage) but what would you recommend for mid usage? Super helpful video btw. Thanks!

[@WhereWeWild]

Thanks man 👊🏽😊 Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely depends on usage ya know, and also on how you like your gear to be lol I know guys who never do it at all 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 But normal usage, not dropping it in the sand or noticing it getting super dirty or feeling rough, I’d say once or twice a year. 😊🤙🏽

cool cool cool

[@micheletronci9571]

Shimano Ax, FX FC ,catana nexave, Sienna sono tutti meccanicamente identici. Pagate di più solo per il lato estetico. Poi cambiate le boccole con dei cuscinetti e diventano subito top di gamma 🤣

[@WhereWeWild]

🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@tamvan2840]

Video is too long

[@WhereWeWild]

Lol ya think? 😃😂 Take one of these completely apart, clean every little thing on it, then put it all back together and see how long that takes you bro. 😁 And even worse teaching your wife how to do it while you’re at it! 🤦🏻‍♂️😂 That’s what fast forward buttons are for. 😁🤙🏽
