Tranx 401 handle help

Hi anglers!
I have a question I recently purchased a Shimano Tranx 401, being the left hand crank model. Love the way it casts, the brake, most everything about it except the handle. I feel it's costing me fish on the retrieve.
It has the dual paddle and I prefer the larger knob handle. I found someone selling the OEM Shimano Tranx 300/400 power handle so I bought it. Can I simply swap them out or will I have a gearing issue?
Thanks for looking, tight Lines 🤙

Gills, as long as the hole in the handle fits snugly on the shaft of the reel, you should be ok. If it's loose on the shaft,don't use it,you'll ruin the shaft.
