the shaft from burrs and foreign materials. Slide the bearing
cover on to the shaft in such a way that the cover hub is facing
the rotor.

similar) and slide the bearings on to the shaft with the wider
sides of the inner rings facing each other. See sketch.
Place upper bearing on the shaft and press all three (3) bearings
into positions, i.e. against the shaft shoulders.
Mount bearing washer and circlip on the shaft below lower
bearing.
If a press is not availabIe, heat bearings to 100-120 °C in an oil
bath prior to assembly.
Note: Do not overfill bearings and bearing covers with grease.
Bearing manufacturers recommend to fill covers and bearings
2/3 full.
