Help with Certate 2500R

Post by fshn4lmt » Thu Apr 01, 2021 3:28 pm

I have a Daiwa Certate 2500R that I purchased in 2010 from Bass Pro Shops on Black Friday. Does anyone know where I can get it serviced? I sent it to Daiwa with 3 other reels for service and they said because it is a JDM reel they will not service it. I love this reel and I went to clean it at the end of the year and could not unwind the handle, and stripped the gears trying to get the handle off. This reel does not have a scratch on it otherwise. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Matt basscaster@columbus.rr.com

Pays to use some form of anti-sneeze between the main gears stainless steel shaft and that handle thread...

When it cold welds or corrodes inside - yep you found out...
