HELP

[SpecialK]

OK so I got my new Saragosa 18000. I wanted to get the drag washers out to measure for replacements.

When I took the drag knob off and starte pulling the spool the clip that hold in the washers was not in place well and it popped out letting all of the washers fall out. They all separated and now I do not know what order they go back in. Does it matter all that much? As long as there is a drag washer at the bottom is it ok?
The schematics do not show the washers. They call the whole spool the spool assembly. I am assuming this would be similar to a Spheros drag wash!
HELP!

send a pm to Alantani , sure he can get those drag in the right order.

if its like the spheros, you have the first washer against the spool, then a metal, then a washer, then a metal- etc.

Thats what I think.
It hass the little metal washers with "ears" I think you have to split it up evenly where each drag washer is creating its own friction...
i may have it figured out.
I sent a pm to Bantam on 2cool to see if he could get some real reel schematics for me.
Doesnt really make sense to send shcematics with a reel if it only gives yousome of the parts...

Smoothdrag shows diagrams. I think it is for conventional reels, but you could get some idea.

Thanks Kilsong. That helps a lot. I have it put back together now. IN the right fashion I believe.
