Getting a new spring is easier than finding a spring barrel. If there are no repairers out there in the wilds of NZ or maybe OZ (there must be someone!), you should just take the spring barrel out and send it to someone like APSCO, George Vollema or Wyatt's Musical Americana in NY, MI or CA respectively. They will install a new properly lubed spring and send it back to you, ready for installation.
The knurled screw holds the reproducer or recorder into the carriage if it is the one I am thinking of.

Greetings from NZ! I am in need of your help. Now I have a Victor one . Mine has a slotted crank, not a threaded one, with the bullet type brake. Now I need a spring or barrel with spring, or a part motor,plus I need the knurled screw, its' function, I have know idea? that sits opposite the reproducer on the right hand side of the carriage,on a Bann er Suitcase Home. Suppose these are often missing? May need some motor bits to, so am putting out there! Cheers from Mark in little old NZ. Spring has sprung and the Rugby World Cup is putting our little country on the map!
