Any more pictures?
Bruce, you can see in the picture the spring it adjustable. In the last photo is the easiest to see it, the vertical pole running almost parallel to the spring has a locking screw and slides up and down. You would raise the bren holding bar vertical to release the spring pressure , loosen the locking screw, pull up on the vertical bar extending it and the spring, lock the bar in place and as you rotate the bren carrying bar down , the spring would expand more giving you more tension.
