Bail Arm Closing on Stella 10K
Peter Olesen:
Hi Sami
Nice to bring your own private reel tech! :)
That is exactly the part that Antonio mentions :)
The black ring leaning towards the reel body is the friction that can be replaced.
Peter Childs:
Thanks Sami, yeah I found a youtube video and another short cut from Alan Hawke which made it as easy as pie, I didn't even have to open the reel right up, in the end either.
Now works like a treat (it takes less than 5 minutes per reel), has solved the problem entirely, I'll never go back to an automatic closer on the bigger reels again. It worked fine on 2 x 8000 twinpowers and a 10000 Stella!
Happy as now! :)
Mark Harris:
I am in the process of doing this as well on all my Stellas 10000 and smaller and all Twinpowers. I freaking hate automatic bail arms!
Thanks Sami, Antonio and others for pointing out how easy this is to do.

X2... I would also like to solve this on my own 10K.
