How is the drag adjusted on an ABU 520? the 504 and 505 have a star drag. This 'un has no drag adjustment I can find and it does not appear to have been removed.
Most curious .

Arley,
It is the slotted nut: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-ABU-MATIC-120 ... 1c383b111c inside the hex nut on the end of the crank arm.
The 7th pic on the listing below shows it and a manual page that indicates where it's at.

Thanks mr midway
Seems awkward . Have to carry your own screwdriver. Nice reel however and after playing with it the drag is really smooth.
fun fun fun.

Re: Abu 520 drag adjustment.
Probably a dime or penny in the pocket will handle a basic change, but sort of cumbersome while playing a fish. Set it and don't look back I guess.
