Gaterotor Thrust Bearing Installation
For installation of thrust bearings on VSS units
22. Install thrust bearings (126) in the housing so the
bearings are face to face. The larger sides of the in-
ner races are placed together. A light application
of clean compressor lubricating oil should be used
to ease the installation of the bearings into the
housing.
23. Center the bearing retainer ring on housing, use
Loctite® 242-thread locker and evenly tighten
the bolts to the recommended torque value, see
Figure 5-34.
