If it's new send it back, if you bought it used buy a spare sideplate or two and keep that sucker clean.I've been told a very light film of oil on the sleeve and nothing on the bearing itself.I think it's common for abu's to eat the AR bearings.They are a plastic clutch type and need to stay clean and dry to work.I bought a sideplate for my Record 60 last year I think it was between 20 and 30 bucks.Stright from ABU.I think the bearing is too small and cheap.I still fish them but I always have a backup.
