Replacement of all springs as part of maintenance?
Original Message   Jan 5, 2010 6:00 am
Does anyone replace their 6 or so springs on their unit as part of routine maintenance, say once every two or three years?  Or do you guys wait until a spring goes?

steverons,
I think borat's point is that we've never needed to change the springs and that includes many, many years of operation..  I agree with borat and doubt you would need to change these, but as soon as I say that
Murphy's law could strike.


Ahhhh, yeah, that's pretty much what I meant.

No kidding! We can go years with no discussion about springs then as soon as someone brings up the subject, we start hearing about failures?
