Rear Seal Removal
Remove seals using Puller Bridge, P/N 432127,
and Small Puller Jaws, P/N 432131. Position the
plate on top of the housing to support the bridge,
and tighten jaws securely behind the inner seal.
Bearing Removal
Rear seals must be removed if bearing replace-
ment is needed. See Rear Seal Removal on
p. 326.
IMPORTANT: Inspect bearings in place. If a
bearing is removed for any reason, it must be dis-
carded.
Remove either bearing using Puller Bridge,
P/N 432127, and Large Puller Jaws, P/N 432129.
Rest the puller plate on top of the housing to sup-
port the bridge, and tighten the jaws securely
behind the bearing.
Inspect the bearing housing anode. Replace
anode if it is reduced to two-thirds of original size.
Discard the bearing housing O-ring. Clean the
housing and bearings in solvent and dry thor-
oughly. If bearings were not replaced, rotate the
needles to check for freedom of movement.
Inspect O-ring groove, and sand off any sharp
edges that would cut O-ring and prevent its seal-
ing. Check for and remove any nicks or burrs on
front of bearing housing.
