Gday, had a look at a buddys 6/0 special the other day, it is a newer model one than mine and to get to the drag stack the reel must be dissasebled. Anyway it had a round washer in it that was bent like this ( at the top of the stack. I would like to know if this is normal or should it be completly flat. It is as if the star has been tightend so much it bent the washer , but im not sure , maybe you guys know .
Heres a few photos of what im talkin bout.
Cheers Harry
Flip that thing over so the cone is pointing up, like your last photo. It acts as a spring and provides a more even pressure on your drag stack. That is a common configuration on many reels. ;)
