Microlite

How do you reverse the handle on a Microlite?  Thanks,  Joe.

Just unscrew the crank axle by rotating the handle backwards -- pop off the cover cap on the opposite side -- swap -- screw the crank axle onto the other side -- replace the cover cap on the opposite side -- done.

Best, Fred

I thought that was how it was done but I couldn't get it budge!    Guess I need to soak in more in PB Blaster.  Thanks again Fred.

Joe --

If you keep spraying that poor little reel with PB Blaster -- it may disintegrate before the sun comes up tomorrow!

😄😄😄 

Hold the rotor -- then reverse the crank with some force -- it will come loose.

Best, Fred

   I got it Fred ... didn't have to spray it too much more.
