Reminder of Fuel filter who could be deadly

I was inspecting a Fouga and the bypass indicator of the main fuel filter on the center top of the housing was out.
First indication of a problem.
When I removed the old fuel filter, the spring on the fuel filter was installed on the top instead to be positioned on the bottom.
Conclusion: after the installation of the main fuel filter check the bypass pop out.
If the bypass is out and does not want to reset in a flush position, the spring of the fuel filter is installed on the top. Remove the fuel filter again and install it with the spring on the bottom, check the pop out and install the safety wire,
