Fire Magic 23747-04 Echelon E1060 Hood Spring Kit
- Fits Fire Magic Echelon E1060 Gas Grills
Description
What Problem This Part Solves
The Fire Magic E1060 has a particularly large and substantial stainless steel hood. Its spring-assist system helps offset some of that weight during normal opening and closing.
As the spring assembly ages or becomes damaged, you may notice:
- Hood becoming noticeably heavier to lift
- Reduced spring assistance
- Uneven or rough hood movement
- Difficulty opening the lid
- Hood no longer operating as smoothly as it once did
- Damaged or broken spring components
Replacing the worn spring assembly with Fire Magic 23747-04 restores the proper factory spring-assist system for compatible E1060 grills.

- Select E1060 built-in grills
- Select E1060 portable grills
Fire Magic's current parts catalog assigns 23747-04 exclusively to the E1060 size code, while the smaller Echelon E790 and E660 use a different hood spring kit, 23745-11.

Fits most grills within this series—confirm model number before ordering.
Important: 23747-04 vs. 23747-03
These two E1060 spring kits should not be confused:
- 23747-04 – Echelon E1060 Oven Hood Spring Kit
- 23747-03 – Echelon E1060 Lid Spring Kit – Pre-2021
Fire Magic's current replacement-parts catalog lists both separately and specifically identifies 23747-03 for pre-2021 E1060 grills.
If you're servicing an older E1060, verify the grill's production date and original spring part number before ordering.
Installation / Use Instructions
- Turn off the grill's gas supply and allow the grill and hood to cool completely.
- Secure and support the heavy E1060 hood before removing any spring hardware. The spring assembly can be under substantial tension.
- Remove the original spring components and install the 23747-04 kit in the same factory mounting positions, then carefully test hood movement before returning the grill to service.
Caution: Hood springs store mechanical energy and the E1060 lid is heavy. Installation should be performed carefully with the hood properly supported. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with spring-loaded grill lid assemblies.
