    I am sure I have it now. I was just too timid to push hard enough on the wings to get them to snap in place.

    Thanks all.

    A very old topic but can someone post a closeup of theses small studs that I know if my 2 reels are N version. I don't have the retaining panels but can buy if I have the N version.
    Thanks

    The first image shows three studs associated with the end of one "wing." There are four sets of three studs, two on the top flange and two sets on the bottom flange.

    Nearly ten years later, while taking these pictures for you, I realize there's one other difference, at least between the 2509 and 2509n reels I have. The 2509n has one black and one clear flange (see the second image). My 2509 has two clear flanges. I don't know whether that's another indicator of which version one has or if it was just a running change. The 12 studs, however, are definite determinants.

    Thanks Sal for the pictures, same fast answer like 10 years ago!
    No studs on mine but black and clear parts.
    Do you use sometime your 2509? Do you load less sheets on this model?

    You're very welcome.

    Both reels and the tanks have been part of my photography "museum" ever since I bought some 3006 Expert drums. I don't use those reels/tanks at all now. The even results from Expert drums cannot, in my experience, be duplicated any other way, regardless of how few sheets one loads in a 2509. Perhaps nitrogen burst? I haven't tried that.
