INTRODUCTION

The Battenkill BBS fly reels features include:

• Fully machined from bar-stock aerospace-grade aluminum with

an anodised finish for durability.

• Extremely lightweight design.

• Easily interchangeable spool.

• Left- to right-hand changeover in seconds with absolutely no

tools required.

• Smooth and dependable Battenkill drag system.

• Generous backing capabilities.

DRAG OPERATION

Battenkill BBS reels feature the familiar Battenkill multi-stage disc drag

system to ensure smooth stopping force.

To adjust the drag, turn the knob clockwise to increase resistance, and

counter-clockwise to decrease it. The minimum drag setting

should never be less than the pressure required to prevent

over-running of the line on fast runs. Additional drag may be

applied by palming the spool rim with your fingers or palm.

The easy drag adjustment is infinitely variable, providing

wide-ranging and controllable settings. The drag assembly

has been factory-adjusted, but may require some

fine tuning after continued use and wear of the drag

components. If drag pressure is insufficient, the range may

be adjusted by using the following procedure:

1. Turn the drag adjustment knob fully counter-clockwise.

2. Remove screw A from the outside of the drag knob B.

3. Remove the drag knob, taking care not to lose the ball

and spring.

4. Turn the drag adjustment nut clockwise to increase drag,

counterclockwise to decrease it.

5. Replace the drag knob in the same position it was in

when you removed it and replace the screw.

6. Test the drag. If the pressure is still incorrect, the above

procedure may be repeated until the desired range

is achieved.

SPOOL REMOVAL

The spool release is located in the middle of the reel spool (figure 1). To

remove, depress the spool release latch, while simultaneously lifting the spool out

of the reel frame.

LEADER-LOC

The Battenkill BBS features Orvis’ Leader-Loc system, which can be used to

prevent the leader from binding under your line during storage. Simply wrap the

leader around the counterweight and it is firmly held until required.

All Battenkill Bar Stock reels are designed for use in

saltwater conditions. See routine maintenance for saltwater care.

RETRIEVAL CONVERSION

All Battenkill BBS reels have the drag factory installed for

left-hand wind. To change your reel to right-hand wind, simply

slide the ratchet gear off the centre spindle, turn it over so the

“R” faces you, and slide the gear back over the centre spindle.

The reel is now set for right-hand wind.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Your new Battenkill BBS reel has been properly lubricated prior to shipping.

However, it should be cleaned and lubricated after extensive use or after contact

with dirt, sand, or saltwater. Your reel should receive routine cleaning and

maintenance at least twice each year. Lightly lubricate all moving components—

handle, centre spindle, and gear shaft with Penn Reel Lube, available in tackle

shops. After lubrication, check screws for proper tightness. Do not put the reel

away wet, or into a wet reel case or tackle box.

Following use in saltwater, the reel should be rinsed in fresh water and all parts,

except drag surfaces, lightly oiled. The body and spool should be wiped with a

lightly oiled cloth.

For extended storage, remove both line and backing and loosen the drag.

SERVICING

Your reel should be routinely serviced, cleaned, and lubricated twice each

year, or more frequently if the reel is used for extended periods in salt water. The

service procedure is as follows:

1. Thoroughly clean the reel as described above in the ‘Routine Cleaning’ section.

For thorough cleaning, the front drag cover (#20) can be moved. Before

removing the drag cover, the drag must be set to minimum.

If adjustment of the drag system is required, refer to ‘Drag Adjustment’ section.

2. Lightly lubricate all moving parts–handle, quick release, bearings, and

centre spindle–with all-purpose grease, available from tackle shops. Do

not allow lube into the drag system, as this will diminish the drag

performance of the reel.

3. Wipe the body and spool with a lightly oiled cloth.

4. Check all screws for tightness.

defects in materials and workmanship.
