Handle Spring 012980009

The handle spring (part# 012980009) is a genuine Lindhaus OEM spring that provides the tension behind the machine’s handle mechanism. The handle spring loads the handle release and pivot so the handle moves, holds, and returns the way it should, giving that positive, springy feel when you recline or lock the handle for use.

Springs work every single time the handle is operated, so the handle spring is a natural wear item. Over thousands of cycles a spring can weaken, stretch, or snap, and when it does the handle may fail to hold its position, feel loose and floppy, or refuse to stay upright for storage. A tired handle spring is a common reason a handle will not lock or return crisply.

Replace the handle spring if the handle no longer holds or returns to position, if it feels slack, or if the spring is visibly broken or deformed. This part is shared across the full Lindhaus CH Pro, HCP, RX Eco-Force, RX Hepa, and Valzer range, so one number fits many machines. Twin City Vacuum has sold and serviced Lindhaus equipment since 1956, and we stock this part for prompt shipping from Crystal, MN.
