2.9.1 Torque spring set, single spring type
Reassemble the torque spring set of the single spring type as
described in the following:
(1) To lightly tighten adjusting screw, turn the adjusting
screw with a screwdriver until you feel resistance. At
the position where you feel resistance, secure the
adjusting screw lightly using lock nut.
(2) Set the scale to zero. Turn the torque spring case until
the scale reading reaches the load value “A” g in the
table below. At this position, secure the adjusting screw
using the speical nut.
(3) Temporarily loose the adjusting screw until "A" g load
decreases by approx. 200 g [7.05 oz.] and then tighten
the adjusting screw again until the load reaches “B” g in
the table below. At this position, tighten the lock nut to
the specified torque to secure the adjusting screw.
(4) To check that the torque spring set is adjusted to the
appropriate load, place the torque spring set as shown
in the illustration. Slowly push the scale to the torque
spring set until the spring stopper moves or the pointer
of the dial gauge swings. Check the load against the
torque spring at that moment is equal to "C" g of the
table below.
Note: Load values (A, B and C) vary based on models.
