Default Sage model No.108

Hello-
Hope someone can help me. I recieved a sage #108 reel as a freebie.
It is in very good condition. I got it without any information, box,
etc. It is currently set up as a left hand retrieve. Anyone able to
explain how I would change it to a right retrieve?

Thanks!!

If this is the reel I am thinking it is, it is essentially a repackaged
hardy JLH. I tried to google up instructions but could not find them.
If you have proximity to a fly shop or have friends who own old Hardy
or Orvis click and prawl reels, they should be able to help

But if not, take off the spool. On the reel housing there should be two
little triangle looking things. you want to mirror image them, so if
the one on the right points down, change the one on the left to point
down and if the one on the left originally pointed towards the spindle,
change the one on the right to point that way.

This is probably clear as mud ?

Thanks Wayne, I'll give it a try when I get home 2nite. I don't have
reel with me but I believe both are currently pointing toward the
spindle.
