Anyone have a Cat 700 manual around who can give me the p/n for the gate springs? It's a c shaped spring that tensions the pad roller gate to keep it closed once it's closed..

I had one break today on the lower gate. Runs fine without it but need to order replacements tomorrow.

Thanks!

Jason,

There are two springs and they are not identical...different rotation.

Check out the front page of the forum and about half-way down...you will find the files with exploded views of the Dolby readers.

Use a rubber band to hold the pad rollers together until your new springs arrive.

Steve,

I checked the manuals section before my post. For whatever reason I could not get the .pdf file to open. I have now found the p/n's I need.

Thanks!
