The recoil spring retainer must never be more then 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) from the recoil spring while the spring is being removed. Be sure the pressure reading on the pressure gauge of the tool gradually decreases during all the steps of the procedure.
Extend Tooling (E) to 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) less then maximum travel. Use Tooling (K) to adjust Tooling (H) to the back of the cylinder. Keep Tooling (H) parallel to roller frame (1).
Pressurize Tooling (E). Remove the spring tension on retainer (3). Back off retainer (3) to a dimension of 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) with the use of Tooling (L).

Release the pressure on Tooling (E). The spring will rest on the retainer. Tooling (H) should be parallel with roller frame (1). Apply pressure to Tooling (E). Remove the spring tension on retainer (3). Back off retainer (3) 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) with the use of Tooling (L).
Illustration 12 g00871432
Release the tension of Tooling (E). The spring will rest on retainer (3). If any spring tension is remaining repeat this procedure until there is no spring tension. If no spring tension is available remove all Tooling from roller frame (1). Note: If any spring tension is remaining, remove the nuts and washers. Remove spacers (G) and install the nuts and the washers against the plate. Repeat the previous steps.
