-
Place the pointed tip of the pliers onto the brake shoe lining surface directly across from the spring (if the shoes are to be reused, place the
tip into a rivet hole or place a thin sheet of wood between the linings and pointed tip).
-
Squeeze the pliers and lift the return spring from the hole.
-
Release the pliers slowly and remove the other end of the spring.
Installation
-
Use the same technique for installing the spring as was used for removing it.
-
If a rivet hole is not available, place a thin sheet of wood between the lining and pointed end of the tool.
-
A pair of needle nosed pliers may be helpful for guiding the end of the return spring into the hole.
WARNING: Do not attempt to help the spring into the hole with your fingers. Should the return spring slip off the tool it could
seriously lacerate your hand.
