a. Bearing installation should take place under
conditions of cleanliness consistent with the
precision of the product involved. All tables
and tools must be clean and free from dirt or
other foreign matter that could end up in the
bearing.
b. When a bearing is installed, the mount-
ing force should be applied against the
race which is being press-fitted. A bearing
should never be forced onto a shaft by pres-
sure or hammer blows applied to outer ring,
nor should the bearing be press-fitted into a
housing by force applied to the inner ring.
