Title: Daiwa RB1300 anti-reverse spring missing.
Post by: Danwin22 on May 17, 2021, 11:12:06 PM
I bought this reel years ago and loaned it out.  It came back missing the hairspring that mounts on the side-cover and keeps the anti-reverse pawl engaged.

I can't find a RB1300 Schematic on line.

Can anyone tell me the correct part number?

B68-0701 Here's the schematic. (https://www.reelschematic.com/wp-content/uploads/schematics/Daiwa/Spinning/DAIWA%20SPINNING%20RB1300-1600%2883-14%29.pdf)

Tommy, Thanks for providing that schematic.

Now I see there is no hair spring to keep tension on the Anti-reverse Claw.

My reel is missing item (41) the Anti-Reverse Claw Plate.

I won't know how the plate keeps tension on the claw to engage the main gear until I see the actual plate.

In the meantime, I made a temporary fix by modifying a safety pin into a hair spring and using the small hole in the top of the Anti-Reverse Claw to keep it engaged when the Anti-Reverse Lever is operated.

Everything functions properly but I worry that the spring may have too much pressure on the claw and prematurely wear a groove in the Zamak Drive Gear.

I'm not using the reel until I can restore it.

what are the B07-3303 "bearings" on main gear -- ball, brass, or b/s ?

thanks

They are bushings.  I'd have to take it apart again to figure out what material.  They are brass or bronze.

thanks,
brass/bronze was what I hoped...  they look nice & big on schematic 
might these bushings be same dimensions as bearings in later/higher models?
no need to re-open -- just guess by memory, pls.
