Latch Spring
Installation
The latch on the crossbar must have the external coil-type latch
spring mounted on the latch pin. If a latch spring is weak or bro-
ken,
it must be replaced with a new spring, part number 33480.
To avoid severe burns and injuries make sure the lid is
secure during a cook cycle. The latch spring must be in
good working order and properly installed. (Refer to il-
lustrations at left.) If the latch spring is weak, broken, or
mounted backwards, it will provide little force against the
latch.
1. Replace the crossbar from the lid. (Refer to previous steps
on Lid Cover Removal.)
2. With the crossbar in the upright position, remove one of
the two Tru-Arc rings from latch pin.
3. Tap out pin from latch while grasping latch, and remove
latch and latch spring.
4. Install new latch spring with the coils of spring extending
forward. (Refer to illustrations at left.)
5. Secure spring in place with Tru-Arc ring.
