Shipping Retainer

My egg came assembled and I am not sure if I have the shipping retainers for the spring band. I have two plastic pieces that have no apparent use, I have not figured out if they are somehow the retainers. Does anyone have a picture of the retainers and how they look installed?

Thanks,
John

  • TulsaMurph,
    Do the plastic pieces have holes in both ends? If so, they snap over the bolts on the hinge in a diagonal fashion. The outer bottom bolt to the upper inside bolt... does that make sense? Try to put them on in this way and I think you'll see how they work to keep the hinge together. Sorry I don't have a pic but if you have instructions for the band, I believe the diagram shows where they go on the hinge.
    HTH,

    Thanks, that was it. For some reason, I just couldn't see it that way the first time I tried to figure out if that is what those plastic pieces were. Spring bands are adjusted now, thanks for the help.
