Features & Operations Instructions
Adjustable Dual Braking System
TM
Your reel is equipped with a Dual Braking System. It uses both a centrifugal brake system and an externally adjustable magnetic brake
system. The braking systems are used to help prevent backlashes while casting. You can adjust the centrifugal brake mechanism by
removing the palming sideplate. Once open, you’ll see a flat disk attached to the spool assembly. A dial with 2 indicators is located near
the center around the tip of the spool shaft. This dial controls the 4 brake shoes built into the disk. The dial can be adjusted from 0 to 4 to
engage the desired number of brake shoes. When engaged the brake shoes exert outward pressure against the spool housing creating
friction and preventing spool overruns. The greater the number of brakes engaged, the more dramatic the impact on spool speed. The
magnetic braking system provides additional stopping power when a lure or bait hits the water during a cast. The external dial can be
adjusted to a wide range of settings from 0 to 10. As the setting number is increased, a magnet-lined pad within the sideplate is extended
toward the spool. The higher the setting, the greater the resistance provided by the magnets. This dial should be adjusted whenever a lure
or bait is changed to maintain the desired stopping effect.
Cast Control Knob
The Cast Control Knob is located near the center of the palming sidecover. Its purpose is to apply continuous friction to the end of the
spool shaft, assisting the braking system in maintaining the correct spool speed. This helps to prevent backlashes. To set the cast control,
tie on your lure and reel it to the tip of the rod. Tighten the knob until it feels snug. Push the thumb bar. Your lure should not move. Hold the
rod at a 2 o’clock position and slowly turn the knob counterclockwise until the lure starts to fall. Let the lure hit the ground and watch the
spool. The spool should not spin more than one revolution after the lure hits the ground. If it spins more than one revolution, tighten the
Cast Control Knob and repeat the procedure. If the spool does not spin after the lure hits the ground, the cast control is set too tight.
Loosen the knob and repeat the procedure.
Powerlock™ Instant Anti-Reverse
Your reel is equipped with our Powerlock instant anti-reverse system. This is a special type of bearing that allows the handle to only turn
forward. There is no play in the handle, so you have complete control during the retrieve and no “loose” feeling, which is important during
stop-and-go retrieves.
Star Drag with Carbon Washers
The powerful Star Drag gives you the power needed to fight the biggest of fish. The lightweight carbon washer system will not slip, even
when wet. The large drag discs provide a smooth flow of line at any setting. The Star Drag is located just under the reel handle. To adjust,
simply turn forward to tighten.

Reel Care and Lubrication
Your new reel is designed to provide years of dependable service. But like any other precision machine, periodic cleaning and
maintenance is required for continued peak performance.
Reels made today require both a lightweight oil and grease. Oil and grease should be used sparingly; too much can have a negative
impact on reel performance. There are lightweight oils and greases made specifically for fishing reels that can be found at basspro.com
As a rule of thumb, oils should be used to lubricate any moving part on the reel, e.g. ball bearings, bushings, handle joints, bail springs,
etc. Grease should be used to lubricate the main drive gear and pinion gear.
We do not recommend using any multipurpose oils. Many of these oils have properties that will attract dirt and dust to the internal parts.
This may cause excessive wear and reduce the life of the reel.
After each trip, the reel should be checked for dirt or sand. If it has been exposed to saltwater, the spool should be removed and the entire
reel rinsed in freshwater. Dry with a soft cloth and lubricate the reel as described above.
