gromitlad Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Hello, I have Shimano XTEA 10000 Baitrunner with slight drag judder, it hasn't been used for a while. I'm told its a simple fix, re-crease the drag disc or at worst I need new discs. As the reel is like new and hardly been used, I'm hoping its just needs re-creasing. But I can't work out how to get to the drag discs, they are at the rear of the reel inside/under the rear drag setting kno b, I cant work out how to remove the kno b to get to the disc, Shimano call it the drag programming kno b. Can anyone please advise me on dismantling the rear of the reel? Most of the rest of the reel in in pieces, just cant work it out the drag disc area at the rear. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gromitlad Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Thanks, but I tried that and nothing comes up on dismantling a rear drag system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozer Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Might help. I think there's what looks like a retaining ring which probably has to be depressed to allow the rear (censored) to pop off. Close up with the retainer arrowed.

gromitlad Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Hi Snoozzer Yes, I think your right, the c clip 8882 is the answer, but can't see a way of getting to it. There is no gap between the main and baitrunner drag knobs ( K- nob if censored take out the -) The rear plastic k-nob 10786 must pull off? I have tried it, but it doesn't seem to want to come off. The answer must be simple, but it just knowing the trick of removal. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozer Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Ummm there's probably a special little tool they use very thin and just the right shape to puch the clip down. I've got a spare AR 8010 GT in my hut with the same setup, I might have a look see if i can entice the k n o b off the back end..

gromitlad Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 The AR 8010 GT is slight different on the baitrunner control k-nob, but its must be roughly the same idea for removal. That would be great if you could have a look at it for me. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozer Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Your right i just had a look, Nothing like yours just a big screw then unwind the k n o b ! Sorry i couldn't help more.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gromitlad Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Hello, to anyone that needs to take this end of their reel apart. I have just worked it out. Item 10786 has two 2.5mm shallow holes, at 180 degrees apart. Get two 2.5mm drill bits and place the shanks into the recessed hole, hold in tight and get someone to turn item 10786 the end cap, turn it anti clockwise, its a lefthand thread. Remove the 3 clips 8881, then everything comes out easily, clean and re-grease the friction washers and reassemble. I have just do this and its transformed the d-rag on my reel. spr1985 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gromitlad Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hi The above posting is now correct, the one I posted Sunday night was slightly incorrect ( I had a couple of wines) Also you may find a C spanner to fit item 10785, I didn't have anything that fitted, the 2 drill worked a treat for me. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janabz Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) I know its been here for a few years, but This post was very helpful as i have a very juddery drag on an xt 10000 ra, i cleaned and sorted the main drag, but the jerking is actually coming from the bait-runner part of the drag system, does anyone know how you get to it, it doesn't seem to fall out of the back like the main system so i assume you have to open the reel body up and pull the shaft? has anyone done this, and is it hard, i prefer to fix things myself and have been dismantling and servicing reels for many years but never done one of these. Thanks for any help Edited May 23, 2020 by janabz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
