Title: OMOTO Advan Z Series Q30
Post by: Rodman on October 31, 2011, 05:22:54 AM
Hi  guys

I have the schematics for this reel and I have reassembled it as per the schematic but the drag will not give enough pressure when the drag lever is pushed to strike or to full drag.

The drag pressure is approximately 2 to 3 kilos only and as it is an overhead game reel the drag needs to be heavier
I am gettiong the feeling the drag plate is not exerting enough pressure on the drag washer which is carbontex

Any suggestions on how to rectify this issue would be appreciated

any chance that the spectra is slipping on the spool?
