seven 202 #1 Posted September 24, 2015 Not sure what the purpose of that heavy duty spring is .does it help hold it in the air or does it put more pressure in to the ground when its tilling, mine has been missing for a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,744 #2 Posted September 24, 2015 I think it is a "lift assist" spring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,978 #3 Posted September 24, 2015 Correct, it's a lift assist spring used on blowers and tillers. I never used them for either but if you'd like one that=y are available from Glen Pettit in the vendor section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doc724 925 #4 Posted September 24, 2015 When you are young and strong, you may not need it. When you are no longer young and strong, it comes in handy. You use it only with a manual lift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
