I see you're in S.A and thats where these come from (not made).    As far as I know they are in some cases 100% copies of well known branded reels, many are near 100% Shimano 20/40 star drags and I've also heard that some parts are even interchangeable.
They are pretty durable and well made  but I suspect it's possible that no schematic is available.

If you just want to service it, it's a simple basic reel and quite easy to do, or look at the schematic of the original.

Thanks for the reply - I've already service it myself. And it is a very simple reel to service
However I did take some photos as I dissembled the reel. Was just wondering about the schematic diagram as I could not find anything on the web.

I have opened one it is  knock of of the 20/40 and a pretty decent reel. The office is apparently in Cape Town, I see their website is a bit faulty and the contact section doesn't work, but if you can get hold of them they will probably be able to sort you out? They have a pro range as well, very nice looking reel at a decent price.

The business was started and belonged to a mature Simonstown guy named Richard ?? who subsequently sold it.   I don't think they have updated their website for ages and are probably on their way out if you ask me.

O dear that's a pity, was he one of the railway line spinners? I was considering getting the small Xmaster pro for Kayak use, may have to reconsider if they are going to close shop.

Thanks for the break down Henry.
