1 SLEEVELOC Installation InstructionsSERIES 2000 / 3000 Spherical Roller Bearing These instructions cover the installation and re-lubri-cation of sealmaster Sleevloc type Spherical rollerbearings. It is important that they be read in their en-tirety before attempting installation or removal. Theprocedures indicated should be carefully to do so can result in mis-installation whichcould cause Bearing performance problems as wellas serious personal AND EXPANSIONBEARING TYPESIn most applications where two or more bearings areused on the same shaft, one Bearing should be of thenon-expansion type to fix the shaft, while the otherbearing should be of the expansion type to allow formounting variables and normal expansion (heat growth)of the shaft.

2 Ideally, the expansion Bearing should belocated on the shaft end furthest from a belt or chaindrive. Two non-expansion bearings may be used onshort shaft applications if the shaft growth (shaft tem-perature change) is minimal. For long shafts and ex-tensive temperature changes, consult sealmaster en-gineers*.Note: The Bearing part number indicates whether theunit is an expansion or non-expansion : SPB2207-C2non-expansionESPB2207-C2E - expansionINSTALLATIONThis is a unit assembly. No attemptshould be made to disassemblethe unit prior to installation. The mounting set screwsmust under no condition be tightened unless theunit is mounted on a shaft since this may damagethe unit. Read through all instructions carefully beforemounting or : The mounting side of the unit is marked MOUNTING.

3 AREA - Clean and organize Bearing instal-lation area, keep well lit. Be sure mountingsurfaces are clean and SHAFT - Shaft should be within tolerancerange shown in Table #1, clean and free of nicksand burrs. Mount bearings on unused section ofshafting or repair/replace shafting as required. Lu-bricate the shaft with light SUPPORT SURFACE - Make sure the baseof the housing and the support surface are cleanand free from burrs. If the housing elevation is ad-justed with shims these must cover the entire con-tact area between the housing and the sup-port UNIT - Slide the unit on the shaftwith the mounting side (marked MOUNTING ) fac-ing outward. If it is difficult to mount Bearing on shaft,do not hammer on any component of the bear-ing.

4 Use a piece of emery cloth to reduce any highspots on shaft. Fit the housing attachment bolts inthe feet but do not tighten. Leave 1 1/2 minimumspacing behind pillow blocks if the dis-mounting screws are to be TIGHTEN SCREWS -Do not use auxiliaryequipment such as a hammeror a pipe when tightening Using the hex key provided, snug all Tighten all set screws, following the patternshown in Table 2, until the long end of the hexkey deflects about 2 1/2 Repeat step 2 to ensure the set screws aretightened INSERT - The expansion unit must becentered in the housing to allow axial shaft expan-sion. Move the Bearing as far as it will go in bothdirections in the housing and determine the cen-tered position. It may be necessary to unload thebearing while moving the HOUSING ALIGNMENT - The maximumpermissible misalignment of the shaft is.

5 Tocheck for alignment, observe the clearance betweenthe sealing shield and the housing or clearance should be evenly distributed aroundthe BOLTS - Tighten the housing attachmentbolts to final tightening careful not to strike any of thecomponents other than the shaftend. Doing so may result in internal Bearing damageor fracture of one or more of the Bearing BLOCKS1. Make sure the exposed shaft extension is freefrom rust and Loosen the housing attachment bolts on one of thetwo Bearing units on the Switch location to the other Bearing on the the small installation hex screws on the sidemarked MOUNTING , 3-4 Strike the end of the shaft (where the loosened hexscrew Bearing is) with a sharp blow. This should freethe Bearing Remove the housing attachment bolts andslide the unit off the Switch location.

Make sure the shaft extension is free from rustand Loosen the housing attachment bolts on one Switch location to the other Bearing on the the housing attachment bolts and smallhex installation set Pull the Bearing housing away from the mountingsurface until the Bearing Switch location.
