To install the drive-side crankarm
When handling the seals, avoid bending them. A bent seal will rub on the bearing,
creating drag.
1. Apply a light coat of grease to the bearings on the face and the axle contact surface.
2. Apply a light coat of grease to the metal inside of one bearing seal (Figure 32).
3. With the grease facing up, slide the bearing seal onto the axle (Figure 33).
4. Apply a light coat of grease to the bearing contact area of the axle (Figure 34).
+ The grease areas should be about 1 inch (25 mm) wide. On the drive side, start at the bearing
seal. On the non-drive side, start at the splines and apply toward the drive side of the axle.
5. Insert the axle through the drive-side bearing in the bottom bracket (Figure 35).
