Re: [felder-woodworking] Install gas spring assistance for the tilt-away bracket for KF700
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI used the 250lb strut, did you try to compress it with a Bessey parallel face clamp, the one that look similar to this:Mine are older K-body clamps, but same idea. Stretch the clamp over the ends, slide it tight with the screw all the way out, then tighten as much as you can get with the travel of the screw. As for where to mount the bottom bracket, tilt the upper portion to figure out where it¡¯s the highest, bolt on the strut, mark the bottom bracket holes and then move up a 1/2¡± to 3/4¡± with the holes and you are good.
