From my '12... I've never had it off so I assume it's correct.

Next time for easy spring on/off do this. With spring in fully stretched position insert multiple washers between the coils. Then fold the stand and spring will either fall off or can be removed by hand. To reinstall position spring and pull out washers one by one until reattached.

Nice idea,my girlfriend was watching me struggle and said "Try putting the smaller spring on first to take some of the tension away." Fair play, Result.
