Default Help with a Koma Kassette

Hi All

Trying to change the wind direction on a Koma Kassette.

I have flipped over the bearing and re-seated the c-clip but it still feels as though the drag is on even though it is completely released - i.e. it feels very sticky.

any thoughts, anyone?


many thanks



Ben

I think there may be a problem with the C-clip or drag as this only happens on the one reel, the others are fine.

It is only when I re-insert the C-clip that it sticks badly in reverse, reeling in is fine.

Confused person I think Vision need to have a look at it

On the vanilla Koma they make a point of totally releasing the drag before swapping direction- not sure this might be the case for the cassette version, I dont suppose theres much difference. Only thing I can suggest..

Hi Roger, yes, I did try that but no go

Think it may have to be a Vision 'Sick Bay' job
