Title: Need schematic, 5000 C 75th
Post by: nelz on September 29, 2016, 02:34:52 PM
I am looking for a reel schematic but cannot find it anywhere else online, not even the Abu site. Let's see if the Tani Team can come through... The reel is:

AMBASSADEUR 5000 C 75th ANNIVERSARY, chrome version

Reel foot says 050005

Thanks!

So far I've only found a partly readable schematic, but I'll keep at it.

I found that the codes on the schematic in question is 05-00, plus number code 34-11882-0.

I'll see what else I can dig up.

I think I've got it. But how do I insert a .pdf here? Photobucket won't let me upload that kind of file.

Jon, many thanks for your effort. Do you have a link to it?

Also, please note, there is also a 75th Anniversary version that has the newer side plates and it's red, that's NOT what I have. Abu/Pure Fishing sent me the wrong schematic and has not answered since I pointed it out.

My reel looks like this one:

I asked my contact at Pure Fishing if he was up for a challenge. He got hold of it straight away :) I was sent the file as a .pdf directly via e-mail, so no link I'm afraid.

I can send it to you via e-mail if you send me your address, and then you can comment wheter this is the correct schematic that you're looking for?

The schematic should be correct, it matches the 05-00 from the reel foot number that you stated and it also seems to match the schematic partly shown in this (ended) eBay auction link:

I think you got it, you-da-man! I've looked all over for that darn diagram. Btw, I'm surprised that reel sold so cheap.

PM sent.

Thanks again.

E-mail sent, fingers crossed for it being the correct schematic. :)

Perfect! :) Glad I could help you out.

This time the credit goes to the Norwegian branch of Pure Fishing, I'll see if I'll let the Swedes have a go next time. ;)

Ooops, my mistake, you wrote "Norwegian" but my brain registered "Sweden", lol.
