I need some help identifying a reel. I have had a Shimano Low Profile Baitcaster for some time (15 to 20 years or so). It has some distinguishing features – it has a switch that changes the Thumb Button to a Flipping Button. That is if you push the button, the reel is free but as soon as you let it go it stops. It also has a switch that lets the reel free spool on top of the reel. I am hoping to find some data on how to take it apart and clean it and how to best adjust it for casting (I have been using it to troll).
Thanks

Old enough to know better and way too old to care!
I think it is a Shamino Coriolis, I have one that is about 20 years old, I use it for flipping. It is one of my favorite reels, last year I had to have a local guy go through it and repair it, now it is as good as new.
