Inline Splice 

There are two inline splices between the red and white lines. On most systems, the first 200 meters of line 

is red. The next 1500 meters of line is white. The remaining 100 meters of line is red. Inspect and if 

needed, follow the hollow core braid splice instructions as shown below.

Replacing the Spool  

This procedure shows how to replace a spool in the rapidCAST.  

Removing the Spool 

1.  Position rapidCAST such that the rear of the unit can be accessed (Davit arm is extending away). 
2.  Using appropriate tools remove the four screws and washers holding the top cover of rapidCAST.  
3.  Set the cover aside being careful to not lose the hardware (screws and washers). 
4.  Remove the right side cover as viewed from the rear. Set aside.
