These items are not part of the bearing exchange tool kit B8G200845 and will need to be acquired separately.
B8G2-00-840A - Pre-service In order to become familiar with how to recognise bearing preload after a service, it is recommended that the instructions in Bearing preload familiarisation on page 10 are followed. Bearing preload familiarisation CAUTION: Ensure all tools are clean and free of dirt and grease to avoid contamination of the rotor.
B8G2-00-840A - Service Service It is highly recommended that the bearing module service should be performed in a clean environment, free from contamination (metallic debris, dust, human skin and hair). To ensure this: • Clean the immediate working area and wipe clean the base of the pump with a lint- free cloth before starting work.

B8G2-00-840A - Service Note: If replacing the oil cartridge only, go straight to Service counter reset on page 18 after following this instruction. Figure 12 Oil cartridge assembly 1. 4 x M4 button head screws Tools A. Torque driver B. 4 mm hex bit Bearing preload check The bearing preload tool checks that the bearing preload force is correctly set.
B8G2-00-840A - Service falls within the pass limit. When confident that the preload force has been correctly set, proceed to Service counter reset on page 18. 4. If no preload is detected, slowly turn the preload tool body clockwise until preload is established in accordance with Preload check on page 9.
B8G2-00-840A - Service WARNING: Following a service counter reset the pump may enter a short setup / test routine. During this period some movement of the rotor may occur. To ensure safety of the user, in line with the product instruction manual, install the pump in the vacuum system before connecting the motor controller to the power supply.
USB service port. It can be used to control, monitor, configure and data log the nEXT85 pump and also to view service status, reset service intervals and upgrade the software embedded in the motor controller.

To proceed, ensure the drive is powered. Using a suitable implement such as the end of a ballpoint pen, press both the increase and decrease standby speed buttons simultaneously for more than 5 seconds.
Vacuum leak check For a helium leak detector, leak checking the pump on the system against the specified system leak rate is highly recommended. Operational checks Refer to the Operation section of the nEXT85 pump instructional manual B8G0-00-880. Page 22...
