  • Page 3 C. THE REVO® MGX & MGXtreme: The combination of an enhanced compact design with our ground-breaking X-Mag alloy frame and C6 carbon sidelplates produce the evolution of ultra-lightweight, low profile reel technology. Revo® MGX & MGXtreme low profile reels feature the adjustable IVCB-IV brake system provides precision brake adjustments, allowing anglers to cast a wide variety of baits including lightweight finesse lures.
  • Page 4 adjustment star by rotating it clockwise. When the line reaches its breaking point, loosen the adjustment star ¼ turn. F. SPOOL TENSION KNOB The spool tension knob controls how fast the spool spins when casting. It is located on the sideplate of the reel next to the handle.
  • Page 5 The IVCB-IV™ brake system (Infinitely Variable Centrifugal Brake) delivers superior casting control using a unique four brake block configuration that works vertically instead of horizontally. This system allows anglers to use a wide range of lures and excels in the ability to throw lightweight finesse style baits - something that traditional horizontal braking systems struggle to accomplish.
