Troubleshooting

Roller feels stiff or doesn't spin freely

Clean the main rollers and check for any debris in the bearings. Ensure the tension bars are not overtightened.

Roller is unstable on uneven ground

Adjust the legs individually to find a stable base. Utilize the folding ground spikes for better grip on softer or raised banks. Use the stability clip with a water bucket for added weight.

Cam locks are difficult to secure

Ensure the leg or tension bar is fully extended or retracted to its intended position before engaging the cam lock. Check for any obstructions within the cam lock mechanism.

Roller does not fold flat for transport

Ensure all legs and uprights are fully retracted and locked into their transport positions. Check that no accessories or attachments are preventing it from folding.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides smooth and stable pole support, crucial for accurate casting.
  • Highly adjustable legs and ground spikes cater to various bank conditions.
  • Durable construction with sealed bearings ensures longevity and smooth operation.
  • Compact and foldable design makes it easy to transport and store.
  • Additional stability features like the bucket clip are practical for windy days.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for pole fishing; may be less versatile for other methods.
  • Maximum height of 670mm might be insufficient for very high banks without additional support.
  • Requires assembly and adjustment, which could take a few minutes on the bank.
  • The weight of 2.6kg, while reasonable, is a factor for anglers prioritizing ultralight gear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unfold the main body of the roller.
  2. Extend the legs to the desired height, ensuring the cam locks are fully secured.
  3. If fishing on a raised bank, deploy the folding ground spikes by gently pushing them into the ground.
  4. Attach a water bucket to the stability clip if extra anchoring is required.

Compatibility:

This roller is designed for use with fishing poles. Its width of 740mm accommodates most standard pole sections. The adjustable legs and ground spikes offer compatibility with a wide range of bankside terrains, from smooth, level ground to uneven or elevated surfaces.

Care:

  • After each use, wipe down the rollers and legs with a damp cloth to remove mud and debris.
  • Periodically check that the cam locks on the legs and tension bars are functioning correctly and securely.
  • Ensure the sealed bearings in the main rollers remain free of grit. If necessary, gently rinse with clean water and allow to air dry.
  • Store the roller in its provided carry bag when not in use to protect it from the elements and prevent damage.
