Title: 710 different from any other Johnson Reel I've had apart
Post by: Huckster37 on October 18, 2016, 07:59:24 PM

I picked up a Johnson 710 the other day. I began taking it apart to clean (very greasy). I've had 710 A&B's apart and didn't expect anything different. Without paying enough attention I had the anti-reverse disc (D61-51) off when I noticed a part I've never seen before. Then I looked at the schematic and found out there is a part called anti-reverse spring (D61-10). 710 A&B's have an anti-reverse pawl (412-2) attached to the main body with an anti-reverse rivet (416). The anti-reverse disc (705-2) is also different. The anti-reverse spring wraps around the anti-reverse disc and the end of the spring is screwed to the main body, when you crank the handle backwards the spring tightens on the disc and stops it.
