So I know that my revo has the brake with the pins inside of it, the little knob next to the drag star, and a brake on the opposite side of the reel that has a dial that you move counter clockwise.

I think the brake with the six pins is called a centrifugal brake, The one on the opposite side is a magnetic brake I think.

In my manual it said something like that this magnetical brake could only be used if the centrifugal brake was on zero?

Can someone either explain this or verify this? I really don't know how these things work. I can cast it really far though so you know its gotta be all the reel lol.

Thanks in advance,

Carlos

The centrifugal brake will help manage the spool's speed so you don't get backlash on the initial cast. The magnetic brake will come into play as the spool slows to minimize over run once the bait hits the water. Both brakes and the spool tension knob on the crank side should all be used in conjunction with one another for maximum control and casting. Start with 3 pins on and 3 off on the cent. brake. Set the magnetic brake dial to -0- and adjust the spool tension so that when the thumb bar is released, the bait you want to cast falls slowly and the spool stops when the bait hits the ground. You can then set the mag brake 3-5, test cast and fine tune as conditions call for. With practice, your thumb will become "educated" and you'll find yourself relying less on the brakes.
