    The hairspring should be free from both sides of the pins/boot. What ever position the regulator is in the H/S should be free. This applies to most but there are the exceptions.

    Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum. You are starting with what I always recommend P/W. The reason I suggest this is many P/W's movements are just like watch movements only a lot bigger, so you get to know the layout of the movement and handling the parts. Don't touch fusee P/W's as the movements on those are totally different.
