Quantum E760PT sideplate removal

Recommended Posts

Anyone know how to take the right (handle side) sideplate offs this reel? Can't seem to be able to remove the handle, there are no screws like most other Quantum reels. I've removed two screws on the inside right of the reel frame, and removed the stabilizer bar that connects the left and right side. I'm stumped right now. Does it "twist" off like the easy access left side?

This is the reel in question:

Hey there! New to this forum, but been lurking for a while. Regarding your E760PT, this is fairly easy to do, you just must know the secret. Lets look at 3 components only. #1-Handle, #2-Drag Star, #3-Funky looking washer that lies between #1 & #2.

Step 1, tighten drag star down all the way it will go. Step 2, with fingernails, try to push #3 (funky looking washer) toward drag star. This part is spring loaded, and must be depressed toward drag star to "unlock" the handle. You must keep #3 pushed in all the way, and simply unscrew the handle from the crankshaft. The handle will come off without much force, if done properly. Any other questions, please email me.

Good luck!........................Dave
