Spring Concentricity Test
Place tube cap SS (H) (for 1500-CH models) or tube cap (I) (all other
CH models) and the control spring (J) onto the adjusting screw
(E). Check concentricity of the spring (J) by spinning the assembly.
Make sure that the spring (J) touches no part of the screw (E) when
spinning. If the spring (J) does touch any part of the screw (E),
then replace the spring (J) and repeat the test. If the spring (J) is
satisfactory then move to tube cap assembly.

Tube Cap Assembly (All Models)
Insert the control spring assembly into the spring chamber (L).
Fasten the tube cap (H or I) to the inner tube (M) with four (4) 8-32 x
1/2-inch SHCS (N).
