There are three contents: mechanical brake setting, drag setting, and brake setting.
[How to adjust the mechanical brake]
・ Mechanical brake suppresses the rotation of the spool
・ Basically, it is adjusted by the manufacturer.
・ Adjustment that makes the best use of reel performance
・ For beginners who use bait reel for the first time, it is recommended to tighten it to the extent that it does not rattle to prevent backlash.
・ The mechanical brake may rotate while you are using it, so check it regularly.
[Drag adjustment method]
・ Drag is to prevent the line from breaking
・ Basically, adjust to 1/3 of the strength of the line.
・ 16lb is about 7.2kg, so it feels like adjusting to 2.4kg.
・ The best adjustment method is if you have a drag checker, but if you don't have one, it's like 500g per PET bottle, put it in a plastic bag, and if it's 16lb, set it with 5 bottles. Some errors are okay.
[Brake adjustment (centrifugal force brake this time)]
・ Brake is a brake that suppresses the rotation of the spool, and the purpose is to suppress the rotation and prevent backlash.
・ You don't need to make any adjustments right after you buy it, but it's a good idea to read the instruction manual for the brake settings.
・ Because the adjustment of the brake changes depending on the lure to be thrown, adjust it to a place where you think it is strong until you get used to it at first, and if you try to throw it and it does not backlash, you use it as if you loosen it little by little. Please.
・ Because it is easy to backlash even when the wind is strong, please apply the brakes strongly. This also depends on the air volume, so it's best to adjust it at the fishing spot.
