In
kerosene (paraffin) and allow them

BIG-END &
CENTER
MAIN
BEARINGS
The
extent
of
wear
to
che bearing Journals can
be determined
by
Inspecting
the
bearing
surfaces for scoring, and
by
measuring
the
diameter
of
the
journals with a micrometer.
Light score marks can be reduced
with
smooth
emery cloth, but
ensure
that all parts are
carefully washed
after
this
operation.
Where
a Journal has been only lightly scored,
the
shell bearings should be
renewed.
If
the
scoring
and
wear
Is
extensive,
the
Journals
should be reground
to
a suitable size,
as
given
below.
NOTE:
The
replaceable
white
metal
shell
bearings
are
pre-finished
to
give
the
correct
diametral
clearance.
Under
no
circumstances
should
the
bearings
be
scraped
or
the
