support spring assembly (fig. 2-12) for worn or deteriorated insulators.
Inspect spring for damage or cracks. If necessary, components of the support spring assembly
may be replaced by disassembling two nuts, washers, and bolts. When reassembling, tighten nuts
until the top of the insulator deforms to give .25 inch (6.4 mm) gap between the washers and
bracket assembly.
