A broken spring plate should be repaired or replaced at once by a skilled spring maker. not by any chance a blacksmith. If the interme- diate plates should break at the cen tre bolt, the spring clips should be frightened down untiY It IS possible to have the break repaired. Very often rebound clips are loose or broken. Missing rebound clips may result in broken main plates.
