Sealed Stainless Steel Ball Bearings.

  All-Weather Beauty to match its performance. Deep polished black (in this picture) and gleaming chrome.

  Power Handle gives you plenty to hold on to and plenty of leverage to power the slick, fast gearing.

  Super Star Drag has a big no-fumbling star. Clock-wise "On". Slow 'em up or stop 'em dead. Any size.

  Casting Clutch (Pushbutton Auto Spool or Anti-Reverse Lever) for free spool or engaged anti-reverse. Thumb it in, spool runs free. Start your retrieve, engagement is instantly automatic and your pre-set drag is at work.

  Calibrated Bearing Brake adjusts spool tension to any lure weight. Quick, accurate re-set. Adds anti-backlash insurance. You dial in your touch.

  Centrifugal Anti-Backlash Control prevents free spool over-spinning by increasing brake drag as the spool speed increases. Smooth. And it's automatic.

  Built Like a Watch with precision-machined gears in constant mesh; spindles riding in precisely-aligned bearings; silky-smooth action with instant response.

  Automatic Level Wind guides the line smoothly off the reel for the longest possible casts; automatically re-distributes it on the spool - evenly - on the retrieve.

  Free Spool Push Button. When casting, push in button to give you the advantage of free spooling. Crank handle and automatically it re-engages the gear mechanism and anti-reverse system.

  Quick Manual Spool Change Feature. Loosen three outside thumb screws on handle side of reel. Take drum out and change spool if desired.

  Adjustable Spool Differential for long, backlash free casts. (Center spool in frame by tightening or loosening knurled knob on both sides of plates).

  Unique Calibrated Spool Braking System. After centering spool, set numbered dial at zero. It is now tight. Back off nut (counter-clockwise) to loosen spool according to the weight of lure used. Note setting number. Then when you use that weight lure again, you can just set the reminder feature at the correct number indicator for long casts without overruns or backlash.

  Accessories include a reel pouch, spare parts, Daiwa reel oil, and tools. Everything you need for easy care and years of perfect service.
