ONCE THE RETAINERS ARE SLID TO THE SIDE OR REMOVED, WE THEN REMOVE THE MAIN GEAR ASSEMBLY. TO DO THIS I GRABBED A NAIL AND PRESSED IN ON THE PLUNGER (171) . SIMULTANEOUSLY PUSH DOWN ON THE GEAR STUD (134) AND IT WILL COME RIGHT OUT.

FOR THIS I SET THE ADJUSTING SCREW ALL THE WAY TO LESS (THE PRESET KNOB SAYS MORE OR LESS AND IT WAS SET TO LESS TO INSTALL THE ECCENTRIC LEVER)
(http://alantani.com/gallery/21/medium_14016_22_08_17_5_54_31.jpeg) (http://alantani.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=21145)

DO THE REVERSE OF WHEN YOU REMOVED
(http://alantani.com/gallery/21/medium_14016_23_08_17_10_42_23.jpeg) (http://alantani.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=21151)

BEFORE INSTALLING THE HANDLE SCREW I DISASSEMBLE BY REMOVING THE C-CLIP AND GREASING WITH CORROSION X
(http://alantani.com/gallery/21/medium_14016_23_08_17_10_43_11.jpeg) (http://alantani.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=21153)

THE LOCATING PINS ON THIS REEL WERE STUCK AND SO I REMOVED THEM, CLEANED AND GREASED WITH CORROSION X. ONE OF THEM WAS STILL STUCK DESPITE THE GREASING SO I REMOVED IT AGAIN AND FINELY SANDED IT DOWN AND ALL WORKS WELL!!

ON TO THE SPOOL.
I LEFT THE SPOOL FOR LAST BECAUSE THIS REEL CAME WITH STOCK DRAG WASHERS WHICH WERE NOT EITHER HT-100 OR DURA DRAG. I ORDERED A SMOOTH DRAG KIT AND UNFORTUNATELY ITS THE SAME MATERIAL AND QUITE DISAPPOINTED I WENT AHEAD AND COMPLETED THE SPOOL AND SHAFT TO STOCK CONFIGURATIONS UNTIL I GET SOME EXTRA CASH OR RESELL THIS ONE.

THIS WAS PRETTY LENGTHY JOB BUT IT WAS FUN. THANKS ALAN FOR WHAT YOU DO AND THIS IS WHY I LEARNED WHAT I DID. FROM YOU AND THE REST OF THE REAL GUYS HERE.
HOPE THIS HELPS OTHERS.
"Edited as per Moderators to correct Scott's Bait & Tackle over to their new store name Mystic Reel Parts / www.mysticparts.com"
Ive read this tutorial about 5x...many thanks! This should be a sticky, understandably its basically the same as the 30SW but nice to read it for a specific reel.
I hope you got a wrench for this one! The photos and documentation all while wearing latex gloves certainly isn't easy!
Great job. I'm sure Alan will send you a wrench when he reads the thread. I stickied it as it is clear and concise with great photos. Keep up the good work. Dominick
Nice work!
Excellent job!

Excellent fully detailed tutorial.
To remove the spool bearings just use the spool shaft or nutdriver to push them out.
To remove the left side plate bearing whack the side plate on a cloth covered table. If it still doesn't want to come out heat the outer side with a heat gun and whack it again. It will fall out.
Don't be so neat and clean :D

Keith is right, neat and clean is a sign of a sick mind. ;) ::) Dominick
Great tutorial with very understandable language.
Cal makes a threaded tool to hold the plunger down. The pins have to go in in the correct position with the pointy ends facing outboard.
I think on my 50SW there is a plastic gasket under the reel base. Would have to consult the exploded parts view to see if that was an upgrade.
Neat and clean makes for nice tutorial pics, though!
Well done and concise.

I have done this post this tutorial. Doing and learning.
And I thought i had a mess. I promise I'm not sick minded! ;D
Really good, thanks for sharing, deserved to be stickied alright, cheers Don.
Thank you very much for posting this. Between Alan's AWSOME 30sw Post and this Detailed! 50sw power point from thereelshop. I was easily able to completely service my penn international 30sw!! Thank you again for sharing!
Can't wait to give it a go.

Thanks for posting! I have culled my trolling reels to have only II 50 wides, one being a 2 speed. I bought a used V 50 VSW then looked at the tutorial then swapped it for a II. Too old to learn new tricks...
The notched screws on the main gear are to keep them from backing out. They appear to just be dimpled with a punch. I had one back out while fishing off shore on a Penn I and the screw jammed the reel. Not a bad mod to make maybe.
Again thanks for the post!

I use loctite on those screws, because they can and do occasionally back out.

I cant believe how clean, this reel frame was where the foot screwed to the reel frame, is that a stainless steel foot, against alloy frame, also has anyone tried a grease called anti seize in this area, if so, what was the result after a couple of years, I know it works well on exsternal tractor part, such as where you adjust the side sway on three point linkages, but that is steel against cast steel, not SS against alloy, great post thanks, cheers Don.
Thank you guys for the positive feedback I appreciate it!! That reel overall was in good condition. I purchased it from eBay too!. I ended up selling the reel so I cannot give feedback as too how the reel foot is now, but I feel greasing the surface and then installing the reel foot should help big time! I will see if I get another model international and see if I can do a tutorial on it.
Great job, thanks for taking the time to document and photograph it. ill be using this when i take apart my 50sw's!
Donny, I am under the impression the the "anti Cease" products out there will eat away at the anodizing. I trust that someone will chime in with an answer. Dominick
