Take your drag assembly apart and look for corrosion on the shaft gear. I just broke down my 6501CS and put it back together a few time to get it to lock on me while in freespool. Nada... I looked at what could cause it and the only thing i can see is...

with the reel apart make sure you can spin 21200(gear) on 22079(shaft) if not then remove and check 22079 for corrosion and make sure that the washer 13169 isn't binding the 2.

other then that.. if that isn't the issue then me thinks you got a dud... I wouldn't settle for an answer like what piemma received.. I would "demand" another reel.
