1. Mounting the first ring

1.1. Place one of the rings (first ring) on the support (mounting surface).

1.2. Position the bearing so that the red marking of the first ring is at a 90° angle to the axis of the loaded area when such an axis can be determined or estimated.

1.3. Adjust the bearing position so that the holes of the first ring are aligned with the holes of the support. Check that the bearing is aligned on its support.

1.4. Install the bolts and washers and hand tighten the bolts to the specified torque of 40% to 50% following the instructions given in section 5.

1.5. Finally, tighten the bolts of the first ring to the pre-set preload, following the instructions given in section 5.

1.6. Check for proper installation by turning the second ring. The tightening torque (which becomes high due to preloading, lubrication, and seal friction) should not show excessive deflection or "bottlenecks" during rotation.

2 Mounting the second ring

2.1. Mount the support or second ring so that the red marking is at a 180° angle to the red marking on the first ring or in the minimum load zone during operation.

2.2. Adjust the position of the support so that the holes are aligned with the holes of the second ring.

2.3. Insert and tighten the bolts (in the same way as for the first ring).

2.4. Check that the installation is correct by turning the support.
