2. Insert a punch through the end of the roller housing
and drive the opposite bearing out by alternating taps
to the opposite side of inner bearing race. There should
be a 1.5 mm (0.060 inch) lip of inner race exposed.

5. Verify that there is no more than a 1.5 mm (0.060 inch)
gap between roller assembly and the roller-mount
brackets of the deck frame.
6. If there is a gap over 1.5 mm (0.060 inch), install
enough 5/8 inch diameter washers to take up the slop.

Important: Securing the roller assembly with a
gap larger than 1.5 mm (0.060 inch) creates a side
load on the bearing and can lead to premature
bearing failure.
