Arrow pointing at the spring..






You use add the small one in the same orientation as the original

From big spring to small it will look like this: big <><><< small..

I think what the guy is saying is that there are 3 different disc/belleville spring types shown in the pic.. 2 big, 2 medium and one small.. So technically you are really seeing 5 disks including the small one..
