how do i put the magnets into my 525 mag?

i took my 525mag slidey apart to give it a quick clean and the 4 magnets popped out. im having a little trouble getting them back in as they keep popping out and sticking together . is there any trick to it without glueing them in?
also, how do i know which way to put them in as in + or -?
cheers
denis.

use a drop of glue mate...although candle wax is an even better idea as once you glue them they are stuck there permantely and you wont be able to remove them further down the line if you want to speed the reel up.

you should insert them poles alternating ie +-+-

let another magnet stick to the end of your screwdriver and when the mags are in correctly run the one attached to the screwdriver past them...they should pull/push the magnet attached to your screwdriver in an alternating fashion.

hope that makes sense!

obviously im not much of one roger

hey red,

a smear of vaseline also keeps them fom popping out

cheers, i ended up using a tiny dab of hot melt but i think i might have used a little too much. the spool doesnt spin properly when the mags are on full so i think the mags are too close to the spool, its perfect with the mags half off.
might have a few casts with it as is, and if its not right ill try the vaseline.

So thats what i did wrong..... thanks!
I also stuck them back with superglue, but a bit of debonder will get them free again. I hope.
