PICKING UP AND GOING HOME

When you finish coursing for the day, you will want to pick up the equipment. The string should be removed from the continuous wheel. With the string still out on the course, go around the course and retrieve all of the pulleys. If you follow the string around the course, you will not leave any pulleys behind when you depart the area.

Leave one corner or hold down pulley in front of the machine where it is located until after you retrieve the string. This pulley will act as a guide and help prevent a mess when winding the string onto the take up wheel.

Remove the continuous wheel from the machine and install the take up wheel by using the 1/4” bolt and nylock nut in the same manner as the S/S continuous loop wheel described earlier. Cut the string about where you tied the knot to make the continuous loop. Leave at least one lure tied to the string so you can keep track of the string out on the course as you wind it onto the take up wheel. Tie the end of the string, which is still around the pulley mentioned above, to the take up wheel or to the end of the string on the take up wheel. Turning the take up wheel by hand, bring in enough string to take up any slack between the wheel and the pulley in front of the machine.

Take the switch in one hand and a spike in the other. Using the spike to guide the string back and forth on the take up wheel, start jogging the switch and begin bringing in the string. Take it SLOW AND EASY, especially in the beginning, because letting the motor take up the line at full RPM will create the biggest mess and tangle you have ever seen. Better to bring it in slowly than to rush and end up throwing the string away due to creating a gigantic bird nest. When you have completed retrieving the string, just leave the take up wheel on the lure machine and all will be ready to setup the next time out.
