I do not see a way to open this thing up so I doubt you can adjust the springs. It is self centering, and you can make fine adjustments to the joystick axisis by using the two adjustment wheels on the unit. The unit works great, you can call CH if you need tech help, but you probably will not need to.

The instructions in the manual should make it clear. I remember I had to use a little force with the springs.

So what is the correct answer? The description specifically says front opening and I wonder if they have it straightened out.

You simply push down on the little metal "fin" in back, or up on the one in front -- After putting a little effort to move it, a spring assist will switch it open for you. Very simple and user friendly!

It does come with spring and if you watch youtube instructions it is very easy to change it out.

You are correct, but the spring is shown in the wrong position. You need to open the handles all the way up, then rotate the spring so that it fits in close the cutting head. That way the spring back action works!

No, however there is a metal "knob" on the Hilt located at the top of the handle. Pulling back on this "knob" with your index finger and a flick opens the blade very quickly. No need for a spring assist.

No it is spring loaded and closes as so as you let go on the opening mechanism.

In the previous model there were two separate attachments and you used one. In the latest model there is only a single attachment but with two head possibilities. The spring now

I see that someone answered that it is a round spring. Since I bought this as a gift I do not know.

That's how I'm using it. But the spring has to be on the outside... the hinge side.

I'm not sure what your problem is ... these units basically open themselves. I comes as a couple of round loops that you separate and the unit will spring open. You then just have to spread the unit out and it will stand up. If the unit does not act this way there may be a problem with the unit itself. If you need any more help check out a video on Rukket's website or Youtube which will show you how it sets up and take down.

It is definitely the spring. I tied the middle of the spring together to give the spring more strength and had no problem. One other of the design problems is the cover plate. Look to see that the inside of the plate is not making contact with the big belt wheel. The way to correct this design problem is to use washers to lift the cover plate away from the middle nut of the big wheel that holds the large belt.

Did you install the spring correctly? My faucet head is pretty tight and clips right into place when I don't need the hose

No its spring operated, by pulling slide back. This is one of many airsoft pistols we've bought and for the price it's an excellent choice for durability and fun. Good luck

No, its assisted opening, which means the tang of the blade is tapered so that once it is opened past a certain point the back strap spring will push it the rest of the way. It opens very smooth and fairly quick without the shock that a side opening switch blade has, frankly I like it better and there is no chance that it can come open accidentally.
