LEVEL WIND SERIES FEATURES
• Sturdy Penn Handle. Counterbalanced with comfortable soft grip knob on all Level
Wind models, except for the 109, which features a double-knob handle. The 109
handle turns while casting or letting out line.
• Smooth Powerful Penn Star Drag. Turn oversize star wheel down (clockwise) for
more drag, up (counter-clockwise) for less drag.
• Eccentric Lever, Puts reel in and out of gear. Push eccentric lever forward to
engage years, pull backward to put in free spool. (The 309 eccentric lever works
the opposite way.) When the 109 lever is pulled back, the angler can cast or let
out line, yet the gears are still engaged. Many fishermen find this 109 feature
particularly suitable to their style of fishing.
• Level Wind. Penn's positive drive level wind device evenly spools line on reel for
repeated carefree fishing.
• Click Warning Device. Push forward (down) to engage clicker, pull backward (up) to
disengage clicker. Invaluable under certain conditions, the clicker alerts angler when line
is going out. It is intended for use only as a signal and the clicker should be pushed off
whenever possible. Reeling in line with the clicker on will wear out the device in a
relatively short time.
• Left Side Bearing. Adjustable so that excessive end play of the spool can be taken up
by turning the bearing cap clockwise. Adjust so that side-to-side motion of the spool can
barely be felt (.003" to .005"). Do not use as an anti-backlash device. An overly tight
bearing cap can damage both the right and left side bearings.
• Strong gears. Precision machined stainless steel pinion gear and bronze alloy main
gear in every model.
• Strong Spools. Models feature one piece black anodized aluminum spool for easy
casting.
• All Penn Level Wind models come with precision bushings.
The Mag Tunedrv 10 features stainless steel ball bearings.
• The Mag TunedTN 10 features a custom-installed magnetic control on the bridge to
help prevent backlash. A direct drive lever on the lower right side plate allows
anglers to directly reel line in or out while fishing or fighting fish.
• Graphite Rod Clamp System. One piece graphite rod clamp on 309M, 209MLH,
209LC and 209M models.
• Durable components. External and internal components are designed and
manufactured for extreme strength, durability and resistance to corrosion.
For Line Counter Model
The Mechanical Line Counter feature is great for trolling and bottom fishing. When trolling,
the line counter lets you know how far behind the boat your lure is running. When bottom
fishing, the line counter allows you to drop your bait to the same depth after you have reeled
in the line and you want to reach that same spot with your bait.
• Line Counter. Accurately measures line to a depth of 999 feet.
• Reset Button. Press the Reset Button before dropping line. As line comes off spool, the
line counter will indicate the amount of line being used.
