A bushing was added to the tool balancer t unloading the spring. This bushing makes it impossible to unload the spring using a wrench. The only way to unload it is through an appropriate lever foreseen by the instruction manual. To allow the tool balancer to operate heavier loads within the load capacity accepted, use spanner wrench to turn knob anticlockwise, identi desired load position is reached. heavier loads within the load capacity accepted, use anticlockwise, identified by the “+” symbol.
