TUTORIAL: Okuma Magnetix MG-30CS

Anyone ever figure out the "deformed spring"?  Looks like the spring out of a Shimano Baitrunner.

Old thread I know The deformed spring is for the auto trip mechanism just leave it out and follow the recomendation posted earlier. I have the Okuma MS 30-CS it is similar but built like a tank. Fitted a power handle and every cast the auto trip clicked in - snap off. The solution was to follow the earler post and make it manual trip only. And there should be an antireverse dog and spring see the attached schematic (for the Mag Sysytem CS30 but basically the same) parts 201, 211 and 216 are the required bits.

First things first, many thanks to Dan for the superb pictures and the details.

I own a very similar 20CS and since I bougth it 10 years ago, i have an issure with the main Brake.
First time I noticed the fault i was reeling in a smoothhound in a Habour at summerset. I was fishing at the Peer and tried to get the fish up from 20 Feet below, didn't work because the Break had no power even when pulling it as hard as i could. Further on I took my Abus- no prob at all. Forgot the Issure almost and used the reel seldom.
By checking Your Report and the schematic i found no difference in my setup. Still breaking force is under 10 newton ( 1 kg).
I even took all the parts of the brakeing system out of he reel to check breaking resistance. Outside the reel i was nearly not able to move the Maingear. Every thing all rigth? Maybe but the resistance divides by 6 through the transmission and isn't there second a lever by the spindle diameter? Never the less, implanted back the braking system to the reel and didn't solve any Problem!
I Think i need Help.

Ok by writing these lines I solved one part of the Prob- i've got braid on the reel and the line moves but the spool still blokades. Brid is slippery.
