Bought this speargun, just mounted a reel on it and am not sure how to rig it, particularly how to wrap the line. Checked the Riffe website, but not much help there. Any advice?

Just rig it up like a regular speargun - two full wraps of line - and then instead of attaching it to your muzzle you go another half wrap down to your reel. I think you would keep the friction on the reel closed at all times until you've shot a fish and need the extra line.
 
Use 2mm cable from your spear to the reel line, I do two wraps of it like irtrogdor.
