The separate springs are locked between a wing nut at one end of the shaft and between the bushing next to the handle which is located at the other end.Located between the segments of the springs are a plurality of separators and a floating bushing for locking the springs into their predetermined positions.An inside handle is mounted on the shaft. An outside handle is mounted on the shaft surrounding the inside handle. The inside handle is mounted on the shaft at the end thereof opposite from the wing bolt. The outside handle has an inclined portion for the purpose of maintaining leverage when gripped by the user.The inside handle is gripped by the fingers of the user and pulled by the thumb and the remaining part of the hand towards the outside handle against the tensions of the plurality of springs.
