Front wheel
Tap with a hammer until knocking out the bearing. Apply pressure at different positions to keep the bearing square
during removal.
Caution
Do not refit bearings once they have been removed. Before you fit new bearings, check that the seat is clean and free
from scoring and damage.
Grease the bearing seat and then push the bearing into the seat.
Warning
Do not smear the friction rotor of the brake disc with grease, as this will reduce braking efficiency. Using a tubular
drift (B) which only exerts pressure on the bearing outer ring, drive the bearing fully into its seat. Ensure that the
spacer (6) is in place between the two wheel hub bearings.
Note
Wheels must be rebalanced after repair, maintenance and overhaul operations.
Overhauling the front wheel shaft
Check distortion of the wheel shaft.
Roll the shaft on a surface plate and measure maximum distortion using a feeler gauge (Sect. C 1.1,
).
