Replacement Cord-Spring for Mil Whip 2.0
Replacement Instructions:
- To start, remove the tip and base cap and remove the broken spring and cord assy. Â If the spring is corroded clean out the interior of the base section.
- Start threading the new cord through the base section and through each successive whip section until the cord exits the top section with the whip fully erected. Â Replace the base cap.
- Exercise the spring to confirm proper function.
- With all sections fully seated pull out 6-8 inches of cord and clamp right at the tip using the clamping pliers of choice.
- Tie a simple overhand knot in the cord and secure at the tip.  Remove the clamping pliers and cut off the excess cord leaving about 1/8” extra.  Melt this extra cord to prevent fraying.
- Replace the tip cap to complete the procedure.
Tools Needed:
- New cord and spring assembly
- Small vise grip or other locking pliers
- Knife or cutter to trim excess cord
- Heat source to melt the tag end of the cord
- A vise or someone to assist in holding the whip
