Cup/bearing installation
Thoroughly clean the inside surface of the bottom
bracket shell with a clean dry shop towel.
Apply bearing grease** to the BB shell and cup.
Press each cup individually with the headset press
until the cup flange is mated with the BB shell face.
Apply bearing grease to each bearing and press one
at a time into the already installed cups.
removal
To avoid damage to the frame, drive out bearing
out of the installed cup. Then, drive out each bearing
cup. Drive both the bearings and cups out squarely
and evenly. Do not pry components from shell.
maintenance
In general, you should inspect the condition of the
BB bearings annually (at a minimum) or anytime the
crankset assembly is disassembled, serviced, or if a
problem is indicated.
To inspect, when the crankset is removed, rotate the
inner bearing race of both bearings; rotation should
be smooth, and quiet. Execesssive play, roughness
or corrossion indicates a damaged bearing.
Do not reinstall removed bearings or cups. Replace
both cups/bearings as a new set.
NOTICE
Consult with your Cannondale Dealer on the
quality and compatibilty of any proposed
replacement component.
Make sure the PRESSFIT BB30 30 system
is intended for use with a 46 mm I.D. BB
shell. Confirm acutel part dimensions with a
micrometer. Do not use chemical solvents to
clean. Do not remove frame material or use
surfacing tools on bottom bracket shell.
Frame damage, caused by improper
components, component installation or removal
is not covered by your warranty.
** Loctite 609 Loctite 609 can be used instead of
grease to install the BB cups. Bonding improves the
BB shell and cups interface and can also eliminate
any creaking that develops. Please follow the Loctite
instrcutions if you decide to bond the cups.
