Older Mag10 slipping?

[MyKey]

Anyone know what needs fixin if the cable reel is slipping? It was not too bad with 10lb balls n calm lakes but the last trip on Lake O was rough and we had to manually roll it up Hopefully it can be fixed as I bought used and only had them out a handful of times

Thx

Tighten the cluch/brake on the side of the unit.

On one of mine the cable spool cracked and when pressure/weight is lifted it causes the crack to spread and jump the splines of the shaft. It is repairable, I just haven't gotten into it yet as I had a spare rigger and it was middle of season when it happened. With the rigger held in place, pull on the cable and have someone look at the center of the spool at the shaft and see if there is a crack. The crack in mine is not really visible until there is weight on it.

Good luck,

Send them back to Johnson outdoors or an authorized Cannon repair center if it's cracked they'll usually replace them. Call them first to see what they'll do for you. They replaced mine.

I believe Screw Louie's in Fair Haven is an authorized repair shop for Cannon's also.

Screwie Louies is a Cannon repair shop and there is also St. Peters Outfitters in Oswego

Believe its the cracked spool problem, thanks for the help. Before it completely broke you could hear a clunking sound and feel some vibrations as it was retrieved. Factory guy said they should cover it and passed me several numbers.
