Default Excello Mill Quill Return Spring

The excello mill at our shop has a quill return springs that must be
repaired. The instructions in the manual were cryptic and not very
useful. Has anyone ever done this? If so, any help would be greatly
appreciated. Also, have people ordered them from Excello parts or
other sources? I don't know if Excello still stocks them. Thanks
again,

Default Excello Mill Quill Return Spring

I've ordered parts for my machine from he
http://www.ex-cell-o.com/
Seem to be a good company.

My Excello is CNC so no quill spring. I bet its just like a Bridgeport. That
one is a pain to replace. I did it a long time ago but don't remember much
other than I had to do it several times to get the quill to just return with
the right amount of tension.
