6.2.3: EXTRACTION OF KP BEARINGS
Tools required: Whyte KP5AX or KP6AX bearing press tool.
6mm AF Allen Key
10mm AF Spanner.
To remove the KP Bearings (4) from the Link Body (3). Assemble the
parts as shown in Fig 11a. Using the 6mm Allen Key and 10mm
spanner, tighten the assembly together until the KP bearing(4) is
pressed out of the Link Body (3). Repeat on all other KP bearings.
Important note : the single KP6AX bearing in a “Y” link MUST be
extracted the opposite end to the shoulder in the bore, see Fig. 12.
6.2.4: INSERTION OF KP BEARINGS
Tools required: Whyte KP5AX or KP6AX bearing press tool.
6mm AF Allen Key
10mm AF Spanner
Loctite 638
Before re-assembling both front and rear link assemblies, make sure all the components
are clean from dirt and have been thoroughly de-greased. To press the KP bearings (5)
into the Link Body (4) apply a small amount of Loctite 638 to the outside diameter of the
KP bearing and to the inside Bearing bore of the Link Body (4). Next assembly the compo-
nents as illustrated in Fig. 11b. It is very important to make sure the KP (5) bearing and
Bearing Insertion tool 1 (3) are squarely seated against the Link Body (4). With great care,
slowly tighten the M8 Socket head cap screw (7) with the 6mm Allen key and 10mm Span-
ner until you can see the KP bearing (5) being pressed squarely into the Link Body (4).
Once the KP bearing is fully seated an you can no longer tighten the M8 Socket Head Cap
Screw further, undo the nut and bolt and remove any excess Loctite from around the KP
Bearing, particularly in any internal threads. Repeat for the remaining KP Bearings.
Important note
: the single KP6AX bearing in a “Y” link MUST be inserted into the oppo-
site end to the shoulder in the bore, see Fig. 12.
6.2.5: REASSEMBLY OF QUAD-LINKS
Tools required: Molykote Silicon 111
Apply a good quantity of Molykote 111 Silicon on top of the KP Bearings. The Molykote
Silicon should completely cover each bearing and be applied on both sides of each bearing
when it is in the Link Body.
For the 146S Y-link and pre-2011 E-120 links, assemble the shield washer components (2
see Fig.9 or 3 see fig. 10). If you have applied enough Molykote 111 Silicon, it should
spread from under the shield washer components as they are positioned. Wipe this excess
Silicon away from around the shield washer components.
APPLICATION OF SKF LG/AF ANTI-FRET PASTE
Once the Links has been assembled correctly, SKF LGAF 3 Compound
must be ap-
plied to all outside faces of the shield washer components (2 see Fig.9, or 3 see
fig. 10), that contact the Main Frame and Swinging Arm. It is additionally recom-
mended to apply SKF LGAF 3 compound to the link contact surfaces on the Main
Frame and Swinging Arm.
