Parts for ABU 7000 Swedish model, ie, the reel not back packer

[Dave Bentley]

Hello all, Just had an 'OH Bugga" moment.

Stripped the red terror down to the last screw to clean and lube. Greased the hidden surfaces between the foot and the body and, yes you guessed it, snapped the screw off in the hole because I tightened it too much.

All the schematics I have found show the 4 screws but don't show a part number. Would also be good if I could replace all the screws as some have damaged heads. (and before you say, just like the owner.)

As I have fished this reel for the better part of 20 years it would be good if I can get the bits. All help appreciated.

Bump on this small request, be a shame to scrap it for a stupid mistake on my behalf.

G'day Dave,
Is it part #1116092?
Sample 7000 schematic here: http://www.abugarcia.com/sites/default/files/schematics/7000i%20%201503.pdf
If so, it's likely I can get some for ya...
I thought the Ambassadeurs only had three though?
Cheers, Justin

[Dave Bentley]

G'day Justin, I have tried to upload the schematic and it tells me the upload area is full and contact a medeiator.

I will try and send it attached to a PM

G'day Dave, did you get my last email?
I can sort it out if you're inclined...
Cheers, Justin

[Dave Bentley]

Sorry mate, thought I had replied.

I have got Bluewater Tackle looking into it at the moment.  Around a $100:00 for the frame is hard to justify for the use the reel gets but also don't want to get rid of it.

I will get back to you soonest, and thanks for your effort to date

The screws don't have a part No. (#) because they are part of the "cage" which has its own part no. There are several eBay sellers in the UK who specialise in pulling Ambassadeurs apart and selling the parts separately. I am sure there would be a few 7000 cages listed there now. Run an eBay search for "Ambassadeur 7000".
