Astro 1/4 3/8 combo ratchet take down n lube

[Farleyfan]

Just bought this astro ratchet slightly used today.
It seems to have a little to much back drag on it and I want to tare it down and
lube it but the direction lever pin goes all the way thru and the cover wont come off because it appears to be bradded on.

Any help on taking it apart would be appreciated !

Whoever makes this ratchet also brands them as...

Klutch stubby ratchet.

Remove one of the screws and inject your lube of choice

Hey Platy, One of these would probably work.

screw a tube of super lube on it, would be handy for a lot of applications !

Just let some light oil soak in around the openings and that should help.
