hey guys. Small time reel repair bloke located in Geelong, Australia. Love the board and have harvested plenty of info from it - thanks. Time to give a little back. This week, I received two older reels onto the bench. One being a real ripper Mitchell 301S in cracking condition with box and papers. The papers included schematics which I was not able to find at all online. These "S' models (well, the 301S I have in my shed) has a red numerical indicator under the drag knob which I have not seen on others. Hope a few of you find this valuable!
Note that I zoomed in on the actual schematics and then a bit wider to include the spool capacities.
Regards, Neil Slater
Also, here are some internal pics - lots going on in here including a toothless gear. Mike's has it apparently - wish me luck!
