Bearing-frame inspection

Checklist

Check the bearing frame for these conditions:

• Visually inspect the bearing frame and frame foot for cracks.

• Check the inside surfaces of the frame for rust, scale, or debris. Remove all loose and

foreign material.

• Make sure that all lubrication passages are clear.

• If the frame has been exposed to pumped fluid, inspect the frame for corrosion or pitting.

• Inspect the inboard-bearing bores.

If any bores are outside the measurements in the Bearing fits and tolerances table, replace
the bearing frame.
