The bearings should have about a 20% fill. Don't fill the bearings full.

Oil will fall out. These bearings are mounted in the faces of an
open-fronted box, and there are no seals as such eith

Whats chances you could drill into it at 180 degree opposing locations,
switching
A puller like that would be nice to have but I am afraid that there is
no gap or any protrusion of the bearing race to grip on.

It's a counsel of perfection, I guess, at this stage, but I would use a puller
fitted with very thin lips at right angles to the legs. These are desi

I will do the weld bead tomorrow and hopefully it will come out without

Mine was also taper roller bearings. The front one was very badly worn.
You should have earned me before but once this is sorted out it should
be OK I hope.

To take out a bearing cup I use an arc welder and run a bead of weld
around the inside o
Also when I have a really bad stuck bearing race I usually run a tig weld
around the OD of it and that usually frees it up and often cracks it enough
to just hit it with a chisel and mallet and it falls off. I am sure you
probably don't have a tig welder but if you cannot get it off you might

Where there is no provision for pressing out I use a dremel and grind
a slot to weaken inner or outer, needs care and a steady hand but has
got me out of trouble a few times.
Sharp tap with a chisel/punch to break it once weakened.

So a little bigger tap with a little bigger mallet did the job. The
front bearing fell apart and is badly worn.
Now the seat is stuck inside the headstock and the bearing piece is
stuck to the shaft and I have no idea how to get it out.
Anyone know how to get a stuck bearing seat out please?

Hi All
I finely got my lathe working and by the third part the spindle bearings
start to seize. Its a brand new BVC25A belt driven lathe. I managed to
pack some grease in the back bearing when I first started with the build
but there is no way to get to the front bearing.
Does anyone know how to
