5.2. REPLACING INSTRUCTIONS FOR BEARINGS
5.2.1. Dismantling the bearing with eccentric locking collar
1) Unscrew the grub screw of the eccentric collar
2) Rotate the locking collar in the opposite direction to the direction
of shaft rotation
3) Measure and mark the position of the bearing on the shaft
4) Suspend the shaft between the bracket and the impeller
5) Remove the bearing bracket. For AT fans, the bearing can be
dismantled avoiding this operation
6) Remove with a file, the flash on the shaft produced by the grub
screw
7) Remove the bearing from the shaft with an extractor or tapping
the inner ring of the bearing with a hammer
8) Replace the bearing and the rubber damper
5.2.2. Mounting the bearing with eccentric
locking collar
