The installation method of forklift gantry roller bearings requires following certain steps and precautions to ensure that the bearings can be installed correctly and safely in place. The following are the specific installation methods:

1、 Preliminary preparation

Check bearings and installation positions: Before installation, it is necessary to ensure the cleanliness of the gantry bearings and installation positions, and remove dirt, oil, and other debris. At the same time, check whether the bearings are damaged or deformed, and confirm that the dimensions of the bearings match the installation position.

Preparation tools: Use appropriate installation tools and avoid using hammers or other striking tools to directly hit the bearings, in order to avoid damaging the bearing structure.

2、 Installation steps

Dismantling old bearings:

For load-bearing wheels, use a hard striker to drive out the hollow pin (such as a 5mm pin) between the wheel plate and the axle.

Then knock out the small wheel shaft to replace the connecting wheel and bearing together.

If the load-bearing wheel rusts severely, it may be necessary to use a grinder to break it.

Install new bearings:

For large wheels, it is common to use snap ring pliers to remove the snap ring and then install the new bearing in place.

Ensure that the inner ring of the bearing is fixed and the outer ring can rotate at low speed.

Reinstall the wheels:

After the installation of the bearings is completed, reinstall the wheels in reverse order.

Ensure that the wheels are securely installed and can rotate smoothly.

Check the installation effect:

After installation, check the installation effect of the bearings and wheels to ensure they can work properly.

If necessary, a trial run can be conducted to check the performance and stability of the bearings and wheels.

3、 Precautions

Keep clean: Throughout the installation process, ensure the cleanliness of the forklift bearings and their surrounding environment to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the interior of the bearings.

Proper use of tools: Use the correct tools for installation to avoid using unsuitable tools that may cause bearing damage or inadequate installation.

Avoid striking: Do not use hammers or other striking tools to directly strike the bearings or wheels to avoid damaging the bearing structure or causing deformation of the wheels.

Check dimensions: Before installation, check whether the dimensions of the bearing and installation position match to ensure that the bearing can be correctly installed in place.

By following the above installation methods and precautions, it can be ensured that the forklift gantry roller bearings can be installed correctly and safely, and maintain good working performance.
