Help with Pana M5 Electric Reel

Submitted by bobakers on Fri, 2015-02-20 13:19

Hi all

I have a Panasonic Pana M5 electric reel which I cant find a manual for.

I have worked out most of the button however am stuck on items 4, 5 & 6 on the image below. Anyone know or can translate Japanese??

Thanks in advance
Bob

I don't speak or read Japanese, but I found a higher res image on the internet and used the google translate app on it. It could be way off though...

4 = Low / Issue number

5 = High / Thread Winding Amount

6 = Shelf

 

I would guess that "Shelf" lets you set a bottom depth, so you can see how far you are from the bottom (instead of how far from the top) for jigging or whatever.

Hi DTrain

 

Thanks for that, shelf makes sense but Ill have to keep playing as 4 & 5 sound like they may adjust the winding speed

Thanks
