Setup the shaft and bearing (1) assembly in the mounting flange and cradle. Always check to see that there are no burrs or sharp edges on shaft seal surface of the shaft.
For a stiff shaft application use the shim (2) that results in the smallest amount clearance around the shaft bearing. It is very important not to use a shim with a floating shaft.
Fit the snap ring (3) in the mounting flange to keep the Shaft Assembly. Always line up the ring so that it is fully seated in the groove. The ring with the tightest fit is going to give the best results.
