NOTICE
Do not spin a spindle bearing while blow- ing it off with compressed air or it could fly apart.
14.Place a thick layer of grease on the bottom of your palm, and in a sweeping motion, use the large side of the bearing cage to scrape the grease off your palm and into the spaces between the rollers. Continue doing this while rotating the bearing 360º until the grease emerges from the other side of the bearing cage, as shown in Figures
Figure 64. Packing outboard roller bearing with
grease.
Figure 65. Packing inboard roller bearing with
grease.
15.Place the belt around one of the pulley grooves. (Avoid getting grease on the belt or pulleys.)
16.Insert the spindle through the outboard end of the headstock, then slide the bearing you removed in Step 11 onto the outboard spin- dle.
17.Thread the spanner nut (see Figure 66) onto the outboard spindle until it contacts the out- board bearing.

reinstalled.
18.Insert a 5mm diameter metal rod through the faceplate into one of the indexing holes on the headstock to keep the spindle from mov- ing during the next step.
NOTICE
For the next step you will use the span- ner nut to press the bearing back onto the shaft. Do not keep tightening the spanner nut once the end place is removed from the spindle or you will destroy the bearings!
