Installation Notes

Extension springs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with the equipment being serviced. Always de-energize or shut down the system before removing or replacing tension springs to prevent injury from sudden release. Use appropriate hand tools and eye protection when stretching or seating the spring hooks. Verify the replacement spring rate and dimensions match the original specification before completing installation.
