Protection measures during
fitting
If fitting the bearings in complex fitting processes is very time-
consuming or fitting is interrupted, take appropriate measures to
protect bearings against contamination and damage.
The machine area can be completely covered using VCI paper or
plastic sheeting.
If this is not possible, cover the exposed bearing and shaft with
a clean, lint-free cloth.
Preparation of
the adjacent construction
The locating surfaces for the bearing rings must be clean and free
from burrs for fitting.
Cleaning
the adjacent construction
Suitable cleaning agents include petroleum, diesel oil and commer-
cially available grease solvents such as acetone or isopropanol.
Legal regulations on environmental protection and on health and
safety at work in the respective country of use must be observed,
in addition to application information provided by the manufacturer
of the product used.
Smooth the locating surfaces and burrs using an oil stone.
Apply cleaning agents to the locating and bearing seating
surfaces using a brush or suitable cloth.
Clean and dry the surfaces.
Ensure that all adjacent components and lubrication holes are free
from cleaning agents, solvents, washing emulsions and detaching
particles. If the adjacent construction and lubrication holes are not
completely clean, the raceway system may become contaminated or
the fit surfaces may rust.
