1. Install a new bearing in the drum if replacement is nec-
essary. Apply a nonhardening sealant on the outside di-
ameter of the new seal. Install the spring side of the seal
next to the bearing, then press into the drum, using a flat
plate to avoid distortion. Be sure drain plug is installed
securely.
2. Assemble the base to the support side plate. Tighten side
plate and capscrews to the recommended torque using
hardened steel washers.
3. Insert the bearing support into the side plate.
Hoists with a three-piece fabricated base use special shoul-
der capscrews to fasten side plates to the base plate. DO
NOT use standard capscrews in their place.

Be sure the vent plug is located above the horizontal cen-
terline for the intended application. Oil leakage may occur
if vent is positioned incorrectly.
4. Tighten the bearing-support capscrews to the recom-
mended torque.
5. Stand hoist on bearing-support end. Lubricate the bearing
support with petroleum jelly or gear oil.
6. Carefully lower the drum onto the bearing support. Make
sure to not cut the oil seal on the bearing support.
