Professional Series PS77401 Lever Spring Replacement

简介

A damaged spring can lead to issues with the toaster lever being fully locked in and released. When the lever is released it should be able to move freely in an upward direction. When the lever is being pushed down, it should move smoothly with slight resistance from the spring.
