Installing Star-Type Centering Guides

1. Position a centering guide and two c-rings over the
spring, with the centering guide between the c-rings
(Figure 21).
C-Rings

Assembly.
2. Position the opening in the centering guide 180 de-
grees opposite the opening in the c-rings ( Fi -
gure 22).
3. Press the c-rings into the grooves on each side of
the centering guide until the c-rings snap into place.
It's easiest if you place the closed portion of the c-
ring into the groove and work toward the open end
(Figure 22).
