Replacing an Arm Rotation Bearing

1) Place a block or some type of spacer underneath the bottom of the hub at the wheel.

Note: The easiest way to do this would be measure the height with a tape measure and cut something
to the right size to fit snug underneath the hub or use a jack.

 Also you should have somebody stabilize the arm as you perform the repair.
2) Once these steps have been met:
 Loosen the bearing bolts and set screws, and slide the old bearing off the machine. See
the image below.

3) Slide the new bearing back onto the shaft; tighten the bolts back into the bearing mount
attachment. See the image above in Step 2.
 Then tighten the set screws,
 If it is an upper bearing put the aluminum shaft collar back onto the top of the shaft and
tighten it.
