I think Alexander used this setup for about three weeks some time in the
eighties. The springs are designed to compensate for any mis-alignment
of the lever hinge rods so as to keep the levers in proper alignment and
at the proper distance from the stop arms. (I've got some spares, if you
ever need any.)
Thanks for the pics.

My Alex 103 has strange springs on the valve levers, something I have not
