How to reduce tension on the Easy-Lift Spring Hinge
- There are two normal tension adjustments for the Easy-Lift Spring Hinge.
- The torsion spring has extensions on the top and the bottom that impinge on parts of the assembly to create tension and reduce the weight of the lid.
- The bottom extensions impinge on a stainless steel rod.
- This rod can be moved into one of two holes that are provided in the Spring Body Part.
- The set of holes that is closer to the kiln body will give you more tension and less lid weight.
- The set of holes that is further form the kiln body will give you less tension and more lid weight.
- In addition, you can remove that stainless rod altogether and get even less tension and more lid weight.
- See all three photographs for an explaination.
