I've had my revo stx for over three seasons now and it has treated me very well. That being said, I haven't touched it as for cleaning or lubing it. It was having some levelwind issues this summer so I started messing with it, but could not get either of the sideplates off. I have taken lots of abu round reels apart and have never had any problems like this. Anyways I messed with it a little and it got me through the season.
Tonight I decided to try to rip into it again. I am having the same problem, I have taken off all the screws on the sideplates, the reel handle, star drag, and the spool tension knob. I've looked at the schematics but can't seem to find anything that I have missed. I have been trying to pry the sideplates off with small screwdrivers but they just wont budge. Fortunately there is already tons of scratches on the reel and I couldn't care less how it looks on the outside, so me scratching it up isn't an issue, but I would like to take the thing apart an degrease it and lube it back up again.
This is driving me crazy....anyone???
