- description
Every gearbox runs a handful of small springs behind the parts that have to return: the tappet plate, the anti-reversal latch, the cut-off lever, the trigger. This is that set for the Version 7.
They are the parts most likely to end up under a workbench, and the parts that quietly sag with age. A tired return spring produces faults that look like something far more expensive.
Version 7 is uncommon enough that its small parts turn up rarely, so a spare set is worth having before you need one rather than afterwards.

Good to know before you buy
Our supplier does not itemise which springs are in the set. If you need one specific spring rather than the set, ask us first and we will look at what is in the packet.
Frequently asked questions
What is in the set?
Our supplier lists it as a gearbox spring set without a component list, so we are not going to state one. Ask and we will check the part itself.
Will Version 2 springs work instead?
Some might, by luck rather than design. Rates and lengths differ, and a spring that is close but not right causes intermittent faults that are miserable to chase.
Should I replace all of them?
If the shell is open and the set is in your hand, yes. They cost very little and refitting old ones means doing the job twice.
