As rolling bearing is precise component, it shall be operated carefully according to relevant steps and specifications during mounting and dismounting, preferably with proper tools. Neither strong impact or direct hit upon the bearing nor pass pressure via rolling element is allowed. The mounting environment has to be clean and no materials like cloth and fibre are allowed to clean the bearing because these will influence the service life of bearings and performance characteristic. Improper mounting may result in premature failure of bearings.

1. Maintain bearings and surrounding environment clean

Even small dust that is invisible could bring harmful effect on bearings. Therefore, the surrounding environment must be kept clean to ensure that no dust penetrate into bearings.

2. Proper mounting

Strong impact could cause dents on bearing. On severe occasions, bearing may have cracks or fractures, which are often the reason for accidents. Therefore, proper mounting tools must be used to avoid damage to bearing.

3. To avoid corrosion of bearing

During mounting perspiration from hands could result in rust. Thus it is advisable that workers put on gloves in operation.
