Shimano Scorpion MG 1001 Brake system help

Featured Replies

Ok so I just got the Scorpion new last week- I have not used it yet but I am not sure how to set up the brake system.  I am very familiar with the traditional shimano baitcasters- push in or out the brakes.  On the scorpion there is an external max to min dial with 4 clicks on it and it also has the same side case open to get to 3 brakes like the other traditional shimano's. So if you know please help guide me in some direction on how to set this thing up- I don't even want to try without a little guidence- the instructions are all Japanesse.  So far I think the brakes are a major adjustment and the dial is to fine tune the brake adjustment... so yeah a little help please- :D

svs is simple...

it works just like the standard brake system. There are 3 brakes that you can move out by opening the side cover (0-3 brakes engaged = the "4")

then the dial simply moves in and out the remaining 3 brakes (the underneath ones)... min setting is 0 engaged, max setting is the 3 engaged

there you have it... 4x4
