Only one error. Maybe because of the translation: in the technical data section it says 2.25 " of line retrieved per turn of the handle.
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Thank You, Steve & Wayne —-

That is a great owners manual and a lot of good info on an exceptional Microlite sized spinner!

Manual probably weighs more than the reel.

Steve,

We all OWE YOU a big THANK YOU - YOU did the heavy lifting, all I did was download your scanned .jpg's, and used the software power of Adobe Acrobate Pro, it did it all, including reducing the size of the file from 12mg (too large to post) to 2.9mg.

Winner... Winner Chicken Dinner!!!!

If you have more manuals scanned, page by page, I'll assemble and send them to you to post.

DONE.

Thank you, Wayne.
I had my truck in the shop today and had some time to look into my Adobe issue. I'm still running Windows 7 and Adobe kicked me to the curb.
I guess it's time to pony up for a more updated computer.
I have recently posted a CARGEM manual and an Airex Eldorado manual under the SCHEMATICS section of the AT site.
If you have the time to create PDF files for those it would possibly be appreciated by the members.
I never know who is downloading the files that I post, but I see that it is happening and I am happy to share what I can with the OHANA family.
Your help and encouragement is greatly appreciated.
-Steve

Is the line roller on the bail arm supposed to roll?(part #59).

Mr Gfish,
I don't think they are supposed to roll. They are made out of Tungsten Carbine that won't ever get worn by fishing line because of TC's extreme hardness. It's probably called a roller because of its shape but it's really a line guide.
Mr Oakes, of course, would be the man with an accurate answer.
