Broken reel handle


Andrew Burgess

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine who is into fishing on and off! but he ask me to see if i can help him out.

 

The problem is that he got a broken reel handle and I have been trying in local tackle shop to help me to find a replacement part for the reel, the problem is that he and I do not have an illustrated diagram of this reel and I am wondering if anyone can send me an diagram of this reel

 

It is a Wychwood FreeSpin 60?

 

I will be appreciated if anyone can help me

most companies nowadays (there are exceptions) dont hold stocks of spares and just replace the whole reel if under warrenty.

if its under warrenty take it back to the supplier ,if not you will have to find the addy of the importer and see if they can help.

 

whilst its rare to get bits i was pleased to find the importer (eventually )of a very mediocre reel and they sent me a lot of bits free by return of post ,good luck.

 

as handles are pretty samey have you tried another reels handle ? if you cant get the real one you may get one for another reel you can use on the old one

Andrew I have a Wychwood Rogue freespin 60, the illustrated view is on the box and not a lot of help.

There are no part numbers, the Handle assembly is item 57 ( it is a single arm handle )

 

Unfortunately my scanner is dead at the moment and it will be monday before I can get into work and photocopy the box, I could then post you a copy if you wish.

Our perception of time as an orderly sequence of regular ticks and tocks has no relevance here in the alternative dimension that is fishing....... C.Yates

Andrew PM me your email, I have taken a pic of the diagram which may help.

 

If not, I can dig out the reel over the weekend and send a pic of the actual handle.
