TxHawgs Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 When you take the spool off what sz is the set screw that takes the black gear off the spindle? Is it a hex or torx? Its really small and my eyes are shot lol. Thanks Quote
mrpao Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 I believe it's a hex. I dont have a hex that small but was able to use a tiny flat head screw driver to unscrew and screw it back. Mine wasn't under a lot of tension. Quote
TxHawgs Posted April 15, 2019 Author Posted April 15, 2019 Nobody? I'm sure guys in here take these apart. I have to order a wrench so I need the exact sz. Thanks Quote
cadman Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 I have a CI4+ so I'm sure it is the same. It is a hex. It is a .9mm Here is the hex driver I use for my reel. It is made by Wiha. See pic below 1 Quote

The set screw is about 3/16" long, so no need to tighten it down. Just snug will do, otherwise you will strip out the hex in the set screw. 1 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 16, 2019 Super User Posted April 16, 2019 Thanks @cadman. I was about to post the same Quote
The Bassman Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Also, don't forget that the rotor nut is reverse threaded. Quote
