spring
The door spring compensates for the weight of the furniture front.
The door springs are situated on the right and left under the base pan.
The tensile force is transferred to the door hinge with a tension cord
(C) via a deflection roller (B). The clamping force of the spring can
be increased with the enclosed adjusting screw (A) (built-in appliances
only) via the deflection roller (B).
If the furniture doors are very heavy (e.g.: marble), the tensile force
of the standard installed springs and maximum pretension of the
spring tensioner is no longer adequate.
In this case stronger door springs (see table) may be used.
If furniture doors are very light, the door springs can also be replaced
by lighter ones.
