    Hi Lads

    Was out on saturday fishing half way through the session and the handle on 6500 wouldnt turn to bring my line in had to hand ball the line in and call it a day ...took it apart when i got home cleaned and greased it, its running a bit better but i cannot get the drive shaft removed from spindle it seems to be seized on....it is not running freely....any ideas how to get it off or does it need removing?

    Bit of a novice so any advice would be helpful....
