Reel Removal and Bearing Replacement

Removal
1. Remove the front roller assembly by removing lock
nuts and cap screws securing the brackets to each side
plate. Remove counterbalance end cap (Fig. 30)
2. Remove large bearing adjustment nut from the coun-
terbalance end of the reel shaft and the special spline
nut at the opposite end of the reel shaft (Fig. 30).
3. Remove mounting bolts from the bearing housing on
both ends of cutting unit.
IMPORTANT: Remove grease fittings from bearing
housing at each end of cutting unit. Note that 45_ fit-
ting is on right end and 90_ fitting is at left end (when
viewed in the direction of travel).
4. Using a plastic headed hammer, rotate bearing
housing slightly, install bearing housing bolts from out-
side housing, turn bolts alternately against side plate.
Use this method to remove bearing housing (Fig. 31).
5. The bearing housing will slip out of the side plates
and the reel assembly can be removed as soon as the
bearing housings are removed from the side plates.
6. If necessary, install new bearings and seals:
A. Remove outer seal (in counterbalance weight),
bearing cup, bearing cone and inner seal.
B. Bearing housing must be completely free of paint
and foreign material before installing bearing cup. If
necessary, remove any "flash" from bearing housing
that may interfere with accurate seating of bearing.
Install new inner seal. Install bearing cup.
C. Install bearing housing to frame. Pack bearing
cone with grease and install over reel shaft into bear-
ing cup. Install outer seal (in counterbalance weight).
Installation
1. Position reel assembly into the cutting unit.
2. Tighten spline nut to 40 to 60 ft-lb (54 to 81 N-m), then
adjust bearings (See Reel Bearing Service and Adjust-
ment.)
3. Install bearing housing to reel shaft ends and side
plate. Secure bearing housing to side plate with mount-
ing bolts.
