Default Long Shot..Help required J wilson Baitcaster reel

I took the reel apart to lubricate and laid all the bits in order on the chopping board...I left it for 2 minutes and "she" decided to peel spuds and chucked all the bits into a tupperware box so "Nothing would get lost" after calming down and pulling myself off the ceiling I tried in vain to get a copy of the scematic from masterline....Unfortunately they cant help
Could someone scan and mail me one please if the have this model...Model no wss600
Thanks in advance

If it were me, CSI would be scraping her off the ceiling.

Good luck!

Wilson 6 Shooter
Evening All
Just bought a John Wilson Six Shooter
I now know why it’s so named. You have to make 6 attempts to cast more than 5 metres with out a birds nest!
This is the first experience with a multiplier and I was rather disappointed with there being no instructions with the reel apart from a diagram what would be fine if I wanted to take the reel apart (to unravel birds nests?), that at least help me to name the parts.
Can someone tell me how to set this reel please?
On the left is the Star Drag. Which I know controls the drag
Again on the left is a small brass button with dots around it from small getting larger
Also on the left is lever mysteriously called the “Flipper Lever”! Nothing to do with the famous Dolphin I guess
On the right is a dial called a control dial. Controls what? This also has dots from small to large.
Regards, David

I Googled Six Shooter manual ...... seems they do not come with the reel

Good Luck

Sorry PR, beyond me I'm afraid, go back to plan B, and shoot the wife.

What about buying another and seeing if you can figure out how they go together



Those might give you some idea how these things go together

Thanks for the help guys the pdf shows me how to get the washer sequence right the rest is fairly straight forward as I did not do a full dismantle. A forum member has also offered to sell me one which I am taking him up on.
These reels got some bad reviews but once set correctly work well with the big pike lures I use. I kinda like it and for the limited use it gets, does me fine
Thanks again forumites for all your replies.

ps I was in such a strop that "She" has offered to buy me a new one so I bought a new cassette fly reel I had a hankering for and said it would do the same job but slightly better.....Result
