upper and lower arbor housings.
6. Remove the arbor shaft assembly from the lower

soft face hammer, drive the shaft from the bearing.
Repeat with other bearing.
NOTE: If the bearing is seized onto the shaft, more force
can be applied by inserting a punch down the bolt
hole of the shaft and driving with a hammer.
8. Remove the foam gasket.
9. Inspect the arbor shaft for damaged splines and dam-
age to the bearing race area. Replace if damaged. If
the bearings are not a press fit on the shaft, replace
the shaft.
