SEALED BEARING INSTALLATION

1. Clean shaft and coat with rust preventative.

2. Install flangette, bearing, second flangette and

lock collar.
NOTE: The locking cam is only on one side of
the bearing.


3. Install (but do not tighten) the flangette bolts.

4. When the shaft is correctly located, lock the

lock collar with a punch. The collar should be
locked in the same direction the shaft rotates.
Tighten the set screw in the collar.
