The base plate of the spring changer has four holes to be used
for mounting to a solid workbench for the best rigidity.
The spring changer can also be held in a vice by the upright in a
manner that is most suits the user most. When using a vice
ensure the jaws do not extend into the work area to avoid
damage to the product.
Set Size of Tool
Remove the R clips from the pins in the stem of tool, remove the
pins and slide the head up and down to the desired position and
reinsert the pins and R clips. Have the tool as short as possible
whilst maintaining enough room for the springs to extend.

Set part on the concentric base, the different levels of the base
will hold the part centred with the compression screw.
Ensure head is placed into the compression screw with the
supplied washer between. Screw the compression screw down
using a 12mm spanner.

spring to your desired configuration and reverse the steps
ensuring the cap is aligned correctly on the product during
compression.

assemble the spring and cap.
