Maintenance
In general, you should inspect the condition of the
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.
Removal
To avoid serious damage to the frame, it is important to
remove bearing systems very carefully using proper tools
indicated by the manufacture’s service instructions. Make
sure the bearings(cup or adpter parts) are driven out
squarely and evenly from inside the shell!!! Do not pry
components from shell.
Replacement
PressFit BB30 bearings are not removable from the
adapters or cup systems that are pressed into the frame
bottom bracket shell. Therefore, damaged bearings
must be removed and replaced as new entire sets. Before
installing any new bearing units into the shell, thoroughly
clean the inside surface of the bottom bracket shell with a
clean dry shop towel. Also, make sure both bearing units
and the BB shell surfaces are clean and dry. Do not apply
grease to either.
Follow the manufacture’s instruction for assembly and
installation of the bearing system. Use a headset press
such as Park Tool HHP-2. See http://www.parktool.com/
product/bearing-cup-press-HHP-2 Select appropriate press
and adapters to ensure that force is only applied to the
cup and not the bearing inside. Press until the both cup
flanges are mated to the BB shell edge.
NOTICE
Consult with your Cannondale Dealer on the quality and
compatibilty of any proposed replacement component.
Make sure the PRESSFIT BB30 system is intended for use
with with a 46 mm I.D. BB shell. Confirm acutal 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.
