It says in the leaflet with my reel that you have to change to roller bearing direction:

1. Remove spool.

2. Roller bearing is located in the centre of the spool, under the release cap. To remove the bearing, unscrew the two screws on the spool release cover.

3. Turn the spool over and take the bearing out of the spool. You can push the bearing out of the spool seat by inserting the main shaft of this reel or a small screw driver or flat tool under the metal bearing cover. Take care not to damage the bearing or pull the plastic sleeve out of the metal bearing retainer.

4. Flip the direction of the bearing and reinsert it into the spool. Replace the spool release cap and secure with the two screws.
