Note: Two adjustable supports (1) , reaction plate (2) , and movable plate (3) are part of Tooling (A) .
Adjust the spacing between reaction plate (2) and movable plate (3) so that the spacing is approximately the same length as the recoil spring assembly. Also, make sure that two adjustable supports (1) are positioned between the reaction plate and the movable plate, as shown. Level the two supports.Note: The recoil spring assembly may be installed in Tooling (A) from the end. In this case, reaction plate (2) must be removed. Then reinstall the reaction plate after the recoil spring assembly is in place on two adjustable supports (1) .
Do not remove the hoist from the recoil spring assembly until the unit is leveled, centered and locked in the specified tooling.
The combined weight of the recoil spring assembly is approximately 116 kg (255 lb).
Fasten a suitable lifting device to the recoil spring assembly. Position the recoil spring assembly on two adjustable supports (1) in Tooling (A) .
