If damage is evident to spring (45, fig. 3-4) or spring retainers (44 and 46), use an
arbor press to remove rataining ring (47).
Extreme care must be exercised in removing spring
(45) since it is under considerable compression.
Using a plug 1-3/4" in diameter, compress spring (45) until all tension is removed from retaining-ring
(47). Using snap ring pliers, remove rataining ring (47) and gradually release arbor press until spring (45)
is fully extended. Remove spring retainer (46), spring (45), and inner spring retainer (44) from block
assembly (30).
