- Sealed Centrifugal Brake System - (Toro™, Toro Winch™, Toro NaCl™)
The Sealed Centrifugal Brake System uses six adjustable spring loaded brake blocks to control
casting. As the spool spins, centrifugal force causes the spring loaded brake blocks to engage.
This force prevents the spool from over running at the start of the cast. The blocks retract during
the second stage of the cast to allow for maximum distance. Additionally, the brake blocks are
sealed inside the plate which prevents them from popping off and getting lost.
Access the adjustment pins by removing the palm sideplate (see Removing the Sideplate
instructions in section G. for details). Disengage (i.e. turn off) the centrifugal brake by sliding all
pins towards the center of the spool until they click into position. The brake blocks are now
locked in the off position and will not move out away from the center of the spool. To engage
this feature (i.e. turn on the brake blocks) slide any combination of pins towards the outside of
the spool until they click into place. Any combination of brake blocks can be engaged or
disengaged to apply more or less brake pressure. For example, turn on all six blocks for the most
pressure and turn on just one or two for less pressure and more distance. When a brake block is
engaged (i.e. turned on) it should be able to move towards the outer edge of the spool.
- MagTrax™ Brake (SX) -
The MagTrax™ magnetic brake delivers consistent braking pressure throughout the entire cast
resulting in smooth, controlled casts. A turn of the dial towards the “MAX” setting moves the
magnetic braking system closer to the spool. As the magnets get closer to the spool, they apply
more braking force and slow the rotation of the spool.
Turn the exterior MagTrax™ brake dial to fine tune spool tension. Rotate the dial towards the
“MAX” label to increase braking force or in the opposite direction to reduce braking force.
