Default Tick Master "Spring" ?

Hey lads

I just happened to notice after reading another post that some haven't re-installed the spring when installing the Tick Adjustable master. After reading this I went and grabbed my instructions and sure enough it doesn't say to re-install it. Is this just a miss in the instructions or is it recommended not to re-install the spring? I installed my spring when I did it but am now wondering if it should really be in there. Left me know your thoughts

I emailed Joey at Tick and he told me to remove it. I didn't read the instruction carefully the first time. i just went at it There was no issue getting the spring in but I do notice the shaft rubs on it.
