7) While placing a steel rod or similar tool through the 5mm diameter hole at
the lower part of the spline, loosen the U-nut at the top of the spline with
the wrench, and remove the bearing. (See Fig. 5-12.)
Use a round steel rod with a diameter slightly smaller than 5mm. Avoid
using a square rod because the spline might be damaged by the edge of the
rod.
After removing the bearing, ret the U-nut to the top of the spline shaft to
keep the spline shaft from falling out.
