I can't find a schematic or a listing for these. I was at the local tackle shop looking at his used reels, he had two of these for 40 bucks each, "unused". I was looking for a couple affordable reels for Kokanee fishing and figured how could I go wrong with made is sweden. I didn't notice til later that they don't have clickers but I think I can live with that. I tried entering the foot numbers on the Abu website but nothing came up...

It's a nice reel. Wow... Super price !!!!!  and : Unless it's a special run, there is no 5 sized present day reel with a clicker. Easily added after the fact, with minimal effort and parts.     http://www.catfish1.com/forums/showthread.php?7954-Abu-s-converting-non-clicker-to-clicker

http://postimg.org/image/mocm0ub2x/              oops on their ads....freeware is most time not overly free. Compared to a regular 5, about the only diffs are the sideplates (dull black), and maybe the handle and star. The guts and feathers are all the same as the rest of the uc pack. A 5 is not a 5C/C3...the o-n-e uses bushings in the spool, and an IAR in the crank boss.
