I've rarely come across bad springs in a floyd - unless they rust or bust or something. Is your bridge coming up out of the boday ? Is the screw (inside back) turned all the way into the body ? Normally a few turns of the screw will get the tension back on the bridge. (so it sets flush with the body).

You don't need any special instructions...

Just take off the strings , remove or add springs, then with the tremolo arm raise the bridge back to normal position ...you should put something between the bridge & the body like a 9v battery or a rubber eraser, or else it's gonna be painful to get your guitar strung again.
