ABSTRACT:
An improvement in an anti-reverse assembly of the type having a pivotable, planar pawl with a tooth engaging a ratchet associated with a rotatable crankshaft to prevent reverse rotation of the crankshaft. A pocket is provided by spaced walls integrally carried by a portion of the reel housing, within which pocket the pawl is pivotally located. A manually operable control member is extended through an opening in, and snap-fit with, the reel housing. The control member has a leg which overlaps the plane of the pawl to prohibit the escape of the pawl from the pocket. The leg has an operative surface which is selectively positionable by rotation of the control member either into or out of direct engagement with an edge on the pawl. When the control member is in engagement with an edge of the pawl, the pawl is locked in the disengaged position.
