Crankshaft Bearing Preparation

Heat up the bearing(s) using bearing heater

(P/N 529 035 969). This will expand bearings

and ease installation. If required, put a suitable

plate or shim to avoid the direct contact between

integrated seal (if applicable) with the heating

surface.

A32CB7A

CAUTION: Bearing should not be heated to

more than 80°C(176°F). Do not heat bearing

with direct flame or heat gun or heated oil.

Inappropriate heating procedure(s) may cause

inner seal failure.

Turn bearing(s) several times during heating

process for heating it (them) properly.

NOTE: Normally it takes approximately 10 min-

utes to heat up a bearing so in the event of replac-

ing bearing, it’s recommended to start the bearing

heating process prior to removal operation. Two

bearings can be heated at the same time on one

bearing heater.
