Title: Pflueger Rocket No. 1355
Post by: Patmos on December 03, 2018, 09:57:07 PM
Anyone have a schematic for this reel?  Have tried all the regular sources without success.  Shakespeare/Pflueger is of no help. 
If no schematic, maybe a takedown picture or two? 
My specific need is the placement and order of all the parts on the 'drive shaft' - drive gear, dragwashers, metal washers, spacers, split washer, etc., all the way out to the handle. 
Thanks for the help.

I found this online; it came from a No. 1355 owner's manual. Had to crop the image and hope the resolution is okay. Cool looking reel.

Is there any law against posting a photo of an old catalog schematic that someone else posted on an online photo site?  If so someone let me know and I'll delete my post or perhaps a moderator can delete it.

No issues with posting...Thanks!

The information is for the general public to order parts and/or service their reels — that is the purpose, and why the company published it.

It is not propriatory, personal, revealing business secrets, or patent interfering — even if that was still in force — whichit isn't.

Best,

Fred

Unless Fred has them, I'd be surprised if you could find parts for a Rocket and will need to buy a parts reel.

Rec'd the schematic from wfjord.  Just what I needed.  Unfortunately this reel is missing quite a few of the parts shown and from other comments sounds like it gets cleaned up and used as a parts reel.  Once again, thanks for the help.
