Issue:
Wheel bearings are difficult to install on the Axle.
Cause:
The Bearing and Axle dimensions are near the edge of their
tolerance. This may cause a slight interference fit (.0004” max).
This bearing fit is acceptable and will not have any adverse effect
on the product performance or warranty.
Solution:
If Bearings are difficult to install, follow the assembly instructions
below.
Tools Needed :
1” Pipe x 8” long (with Coupling if bigger hitting area is desired)
Hammer (about 28 oz)
NOTE:
If a Bearing is damaged during this installation process, it
will be replaced at no cost. Replacement Bearings are
available from the Champion Power Equipment office in
Santa Fe Springs, CA, 877-338-0999.
