Title: Quantum aruba 30w pts
Post by: Biggameaddict on May 26, 2012, 05:35:17 AM
Hey guys i cracked open this reel today and made a final inspection since i wanted to sell it, i should have not touched it. The drag on this reel is kind of weird so if you look at the schematics
http://www.quantumfishing.com/CustomerService/ReplacementParts.aspx?ProductID=2579

You can see that theres a knob on the left side of the frame. That knob spins a gear that tightens the drag. Well that gear that tightens the drag has two springs and these metal peices under it (keys 19,20) and i lost one of each when they popped out. Anyone have a spare of these their willing to part with one? Do i really need that spring and metall peice? I still have one of each that stayed in place but i dont know if i need the other one. I learned something new though, if theres springs involved back off or just do it wisely. Thanks guys.

No metal pieces/spacer/washers????  
But a spring & clicker "bullet" (like the clicker on a Star drag).
 
Nylon piece below that it clicks on..
(18   Preset Idle Gear Click Plate).

""Only 1 spring and 1 Bullet/clicker in this one, but had holes for 2"" ?????
(maybe you didnt lose one??)...  

But you still need this one!!!!  :-)   ;D

Bullet/clicker is 2mm Dia and about 3.5 mm long..
spring is Tiny Almost 2 mm wide & 5 mm long....
Fits over back skinny part of Bullet/clicker, they stay together when taken out...

It is just enough to give you a feel & light noise of clicking when you depress & turn outer ring.

All 3 of  those parts in schematic come to total of $2.96.....
Plus shipping from Tulsa, Ok....

BTW, the parts Numbers on the 30 are the same as 18, 19, 20 on the 20...
KF113-01
JF108-01
KF070-01

Same parts, interchangeable.....
