It minimizes the tendency for the spring to take a side shock load . My second one is not as bent .

 

Haha, I like it "not AS bent" lol, I think unless they replace it I'll either buy a few spare or learn not to drop it at all.. might slow things down a touch but such a nice saw its worth any change I have to make. :thumbup:

To be honest my first one in the pic did not seem to affect ther saw at all

Why would it.. it's a spring mounted to expand and contract as the two saw parts move.. even in that state it can accomplish that.. if it lead to rubbing parts it'd be different but as pictured it'll still work.. that said when I first saw that spring I thought they'd make it a bit thicker.. I guess it'll get upgraded at some point.

I think what would help would be limiter stops like on the big Husky ground saws . They have a peg on one half and a and a circular raised ring centered about the peg on the other half . This would stop the two halves moving too far apart when the saw is dropped on its strop . .
