Return Spring Adjustment
The

Items
A–G in that order. A 19mm
wrench is required to loosen the
hex nut
(B).
3. Loosen the two
jam nuts
(H, J). Do not
remove.
4. Pull out slightly the
coil spring cover
(M)
while firmly holding it. DO NOT allow the coil
spring cover to turn freely in your hand, or
the spring will unwind.

5. Rotate the coil spring cover (M) until the
notch on the cover engages with the tab (L)

alignment pin
(B).
2. Loosen
