The deck spindles usually run at approximately 2000 to 2500 RPM. They feature tapered roller bearing for impact resistance and durability. The spindles can be disassembled and repaired, or a complete assembly may be installed.

The spindle assemblies should be greased as part of a regularly scheduled maintenance program. If done properly this will ensure long life while also purging contaminates from the assembly.

The Spindle Housing.

This component is usually reused when a spindle is rebuilt unless it was damaged when the spindle failed.

The Shaft

Running up through the center of the housing is the shaft. This is the component that runs in the bearings and the blade is fastened to it. This component can usually be reused also unless it was damaged during the failure or is possibly bent by the blade contacting something. Before reassembling the spindle assembly, the shaft should be checked to see if it is bent, the areas on the shaft where the bearing run needs to be examined, as well as any areas where seals contact the shaft.

Matched Bearing Set

The matched bearing set includes the bearing races, bearing cones (Roller bearings) and a set of spacers. This must be replaced in a set.

Seals

The spindle assembly also includes two seals. The orientation of these seals is also important to the overall performance and longevity of the spindle assembly.

Greasing a bearing after every use and after any washing not only lubricates, but purges water which is responsible for the majority of bearing failures on this type of equipment.
