To Remove TAPER-LOCK
Type Bushings
1. Loosen and remove all mounting bolts.
2. Insert bolts into all jack screw holes indicated by dark removal holes in Figure 1 on page 1.
3. Loosen the bushing by alternately tightening the bolts in small but equal increments until the
tapered sprocket/sheave and bushing surfaces disengage.

Bushing Installation and Removal
Figure 2 – Conventional and Reverse Mounting
Conventional mounting is accomplished by placing the bolts through the sprocket/sheave first
and then threading into the bushing. The assembly is then placed onto the shaft with the bushing
flange facing inward and the bolt heads facing outward. See Figure 2.
Reverse mounting is accomplished by placing the bolts through the bushing first and then
threading into the sprocket/sheave.
The assembly is then placed onto the shaft with the
sprocket/sheave facing inward and the bolt heads facing outward. See Figure 2. Conventional
mounting is generally the preferred method.
To Install QD Type Bushings
1. Clean the shaft, bushing bore, outside of bushing and the sprocket/sheave hub bore of all oil,
paint and dirt. File away any burrs.
Note: Do not lubricate the bushing taper, hub taper, bushing bore or the shaft. Doing so may
result in sprocket/sheave hub fracture. DO NOT USE LUBRICANTS.
2. For a conventional mount, assemble the sprocket/sheave and bushing combination by sliding
the sprocket/sheave taper bore into position over the mating tapered bushing surface. Align the
unthreaded holes in the sprocket/sheave hub with the threaded holes in the flange of the bushing.
Hand-tighten the cap screws with lock washers installed.
The sprocket/sheave and bushing
assembly will mount onto the shaft, with the bushing flange facing inward.
Some sprocket/sheave assemblies will allow a reverse mount procedure. This results in the
bushing flange facing outward, but still allows the cap screw installation from the outside of the
assembly. The cap screws fit through the unthreaded holes of the bushing flange and into the
threaded holes of the sprocket/sheave hub.
3. With the key resting in the shaft keyway, position the assembly onto the shaft allowing for
small axial movement of the sprocket/sheave, which will occur during the tightening process.
