2.4 Align anti-rotation tabs of wiper

seals vertically and space axially

approximate distance to match ID

of bearing. Position such that the

lower wiper seal is 25 to 50 mm

(1 to 2 inches) above the mounting

plate.

2.5 Place one half of carrier assembly

onto shaft, ensuring that anti-

rotation tabs are fully engaged to

the ID of the bearing. The spheri-

cal section of the carrier assembly

should point down and the straight

section of the carrier should point

up.

2.6 Join the mating half in the same

orientation and secure bearing

assembly by installing the four (4)

cap screws. Tighten cap screws to

a torque value of 2.3 N-m

(20 in-lbs).

2.7 Apply a light coating of high

temperature grease in the O-ring

groove on the outside of the carrier

assembly. Place O-ring cord in the

groove so the two ends meet on

either side of the anti-rotation pin.

The grease should hold the O-ring

in place.
