Reel Repair by Alan Tani

Ordered some new drag washers for my Stella and it came with 4 washers. I opened the top of the spool and cleaned it all out, greased the 3 that go in there,,, but "Smooth Drag" sent me 4 drag washers and the 4th doesn't look like any of the three I replaced... where in the heck does this one go,,, and how do I get to it's location? Detailed instructions would be great since I have no idea where this lil bugger goes???



Thanks In Advance,,

Under the spool?

Look at part# 12391(x2) and part#12394 and #12397

the 4th washer gotta be #12397, my 2 cents...

YAAAAYYYYYYY figured it out.... it was that darn lil clip that was holding everything on.... I have a 10000 SW and a 8000SW/PG... these spools are interchangeable correct?

good for you! don't know about the spools but there's only one way to find out...

Yep,,, been looking and asking,,, I think I can............ Also, These Stella's come with a case,,, I can't seem to figure how to use the darn thing.. I want to cover my reels up so dust and what ever else don't settle on them in the storage area... any ideas?
