Edit: First thing I should have asked is: Have you RTFM?
Thanks. I will check it later for a spring but I don’t remember one. Also the part in question sits on the belt high up, above the ‘male’ connector that plugs into the floor housing so it is hard to see how it could take up slack which is usually on the floor when you hang it up.
RTFM is not an acronym with which I am familiar!
