Default Swivel base

Any ideas where I could find a new spring that's inside swivel base clamp? It doesn't effect stringing, but would be nice to have.

It's a very durable machine but all depends on the condition the machine is in, how much rackets it has strung, maintenance etc...
So if the price is worth it you could go for it...


note that it is the mono so with one base clamp!

I met a guy who recently got a working Babolat Exclusive. He's looking for a copy of the Manual, specifically how to change it from Kgs to Lbs.

Apart from multiplying the kilograms by 2.2, what else would he need to know? E.g., 25Kg = 55Lbs (within 0.2%).

That's what he's doing now, but just in case there was a feature built in to do it.
