Remove the spindle shaft
The steps according to the handbook's opening chapter
"Dismantling in basic modules":
– disconnect the motor from the gear housing
– divide the gear housing
Remove the primary and secondary shaft as per Page 8.
1. Remove the spindle shaft's upper bearing using a
standard puller.
Remove the spindle shaft's components as per
items 2-12.
2. A suitable pair of circlip pliers are required for the
retaining rings.
Other components are lifted without any tools.
3. Starting position for removing the spindle shaft.
The two bearings at the bottom of the gear housing will
be exposed to axial forces when the shaft is removed. It
is therefore important not to knock out the shaft as this
is likely to damage the bearings. Removal using a press
is the correct method.
The spindle shaft has a press fit against two rings and
can therefore get really jammed. Heating around the
bearing seat reduces the press force considerably.
4. Create a counterhold for the gear housing that does
not damage it. Hard wood or hard plastic works well.
5. Push out the shaft.
