Got 'er done, thanks RM!

yeah, I've been lurking here for some time now and realize that ReelMechanic is second to none at his craft as well as the first to help others with their own repairs. I love to do my own maintenance and I do some cleaning and lubing for friends as well. I'm looking at getting better which is why I came out of the shadows and finally joined this site. On the topic of the sideplate, I still can't see how it comes off... the schematic I found online is better than the one that came from Quantum in the box. Any ideas folks? Thanks in advance fj

Thanks for the removal procedure ReelMech... any idea on getting that gear side sideplate off? In my rookie attempts to get the sideplate off, I removed an E clip on the inside of the reel frame (release slider guide pin) and the pin retreated and now it's floating loose in the gearing so that side has to come off. I learn thru making grave mistakes, can you tell? LOL Thanks fj

I'm looking to remove the right side sideplate on an RH Quantum Energy E760PT. The left side is a twist off, but I've remove 2 screws on the inside of the reel frame and a stabilzer bar that stretches side to side and still can't figure how to get the right side apart to get at the gears. Also, how do ya get the handle off this reel? Most have a cap held on by a screw to remove the handle, this one doesn't. Thanks in advance fj
