Use two 5/16-18NC bolts and a flat plate (not provided) to
bridge across the end of the bearing frame to pull out the seal
holder.
Drill two holes, 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) diameter, through the flat
plate, spacing the holes 3.25 inch (82 mm) apart.
Insert two 5/16-18NC bolts through the plate and turn them
into the seal holder's two coupling nuts provided. (Select bolt
length as needed to engage coupling nuts). Tighten the two
bolts uniformly to pull the seal holder out straight.
