Trying to fit replacement handle to HNL 3146 but problems with spring

Can't get spring to fit back in. Not sure which way it goes and should have taken photo as we took the old one out. Indesit spring is smaller and fits in neatly but the Hoover HNL 3146 spring is longer. Any help appreciated please wit diagram if possible. Many thanks

    Unfortunately the best information we can offer you is in: How to fit a washing machine door handle This video is very similar, however I think that the spring is not fully tensioned until the door surround is in place (hence the loops on the end to prevent the spring 'digging in' as you try to tension it with the cover).
