Original top plate no modifications
Top plate fitted
Included in the kit is a short length of coil wire with a centre core for all springs, this must be removed it
is difficult to remove in one go and has to be removed in small pieces. Cut a small length just a bit
larger than the upright spring length required and with enough core to grip with pliers and it will be able
to be drawn out of the coil. Trim coil to length and fix in place with a small piece of wire through the core
and holes in the top plate and spring holding plate.
The front and rear plates are identical (3) fold at the half etch lines, the half etch folds back on its self,
the round spring boss being on the inside. Again make the centre spring, small washers have been
included for either ends of the springs but in practice they were not that noticeable and were not used in
the test model. Fix the spring in place locating with again a small piece of wire. Fix in place the spring
unit, the elongated holes in the top plate and centre plate front/rear are aligned. Fit and fix in place the
packing piece (4) which is aligned with the top edge of the front/rear plate. Fit both front and rear plates.
