5.  Place shaft with bearing into lower half while carefully 
guiding the seal rings into the housing grooves. 
6.  Bolt lower half of the non-expansion bearing to the 
base. Move shaft endwise so that spacer ring can be 
inserted as shown on sketch A. 
Center all other bearings 
on same shaft in their housing seats. (NOTE: Only one 
bearing per shaft is non-expansion, other bearings 
should be expansion.) 
7.  When closed end is required and the block is not a 
cast closed, the end plug supplied should be fit into the 
center seal ring groove of the housing. Shaft should not 
extend beyond adapter end to ensure no rubbing with end 
plug. 
8.  Grease the bearing seal grooves in the housing cap 
and place over the bearing after wiping the mating 
surfaces. The two dowel pins will align the cap with the 
lower housing half. 
NOTE: Each cap must be matched 
with its mating lower half, as these parts are not 
interchangeable. Cap and base have serial numbers 
stamped at joint. The serial numbers should line up 
for proper match.
 
 9.  Tighten cap bolts to the recommended torque in 
Table 2. 
10.  Assure that there is running clearance at seal ring as 
shown on Sketch A.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
 
To ensure that drive is not unexpectedly started, turn off 
and lock out or tag power source before proceeding. 
Failure to observe these precautions could result in bodily 
injury. 
Remove the housing cap in order to inspect 
bearing and grease. Before reassembly it is important 
that the V-ring seals be removed if TRIPLE TECT seal 
installation tools are not available. If available, do not 
remove seals and follow cap installation outlined in 
the seals instruction manual. 
GREASE LUBRICATION 
USAF bearings are specifically designed for dirty, 
dusty or wet environments. In order to properly protect 
bearings during installation, pack the bearing 
insert 
100% 
full of grease immediately after having properly mounted 
bearing on the shaft. 
If the RPM of the application falls between 20% and 
80% of maximum RPM (Table 6), pack the lower half of 
the housing one half full. If the RPM of the application is 
less than 20% of maximum RPM, pack bearing housing 
cavity 100% full. If the RPM exceeds 80% of maximum 
RPM, pack the lower half of the housing 1/3 full. 
WARNING 
Regreasing requires rotating parts to be exposed. 
Exercise extreme care during such operations. Failure to 
observe these precautions could result in bodily injury. 
At each regreasing cycle, for applications up to 80% of 
maximum RPM, slowly add grease until fresh grease is 
seen purging at the seals. Regreasing should be done 
while running. Remote regreasing lines should be added 
to avoid endangering personnel. 
If the RPM is greater than 80% of maximum RPM, add 
4 strokes of a handgun at each regreasing cycle for bores 
up to 55 mm. For bores greater than 55 mm up to 140 
mm, add 8 strokes of handgun at each regreasing cycle. 
For bores greater than 140 mm up to 220 mm, add 16 
strokes of a handgun at each regreasing cycle. For units 
running above 80% of maximum RPM, running 
temperature should be monitored. If a drastic change in 
running temperature is noted, it is recommended to 
remove the used grease completely and recharge with 
fresh grease per the above instructions. 
Select a grease with a viscosity at operating 
temperature which will provide full film lubrication (See 
Table 4). Use a 50°F - 100°F increase in bearing 
temperature above ambient, depending on RPM and load.
