I did this about 45 years ago....before youtube, & I haven't a clue how I learned how to do it. Just planning to start reusing this reel for this season & use my fixed spool for lure fishing or feeder fishing only. I bet I won't be as successful as I was back in the 70's!
Great little video! Had it all done and back together in about half an hour! Been meaning to look into doing this for some time now and really pleased I found your video. Thank you so much! 🙂👍🏼
Thanks for a great video. Just picked up a 506 and this is a real help to understand the workings. Would love to see how you would do a full service on one of these if you get the chance.
I have 2 of these. On the housing on the same side as the reel handle is a black button that pushed forward allows for both back wind and.forward wind, the modification in this video is separate to that function??
Take it apart: 1: Is everything done up tight inside? 2: Examine the brass bush in the handle, I've seen them wear. Cheap to buy off eBay, or size up and match with one from a bearing supplier. 3: Look at the gears. If worn, possible to buy new old stock, but might be cheaper to buy another and make one out of 2. I've not come across one where the gears were badly worn personally.
Its a chenille pipe cleaner that I experimented with as an alternative to the standard stuff. Originally used to prevent the line from being caught behind the bell housing. I chose the brightest colour possible so that it would stand out if dropped in the grass while fishing.
Thanks for this .. I've just stripped , cleaned and re assembled my first 506 .. minus the Pawl 😎🎣🎣

Very informative, I have been looking for a video showing how to do this. Thank you for up loading it.
Yeah good clear guide. Thank you for the reminder (I last did this about thirty or forty years ago 😮) 😊
Very useful video, many thanks!
Awesome video. I got one of those reels. I think its over 40 years old... still using it. It will probably never die.

Yes, it sounds like you may have a different model (maybe a 1044?). In this case, the mod is not needed.
Good job
Сколько,в этой катушке, подшипников?
Got bit of play on the handle . How can that be sorted ?

merci pour ce tuto
what is that red lip on the spool?
