Precautions for Wheel Hub

Observe the following precautions when assembling wheel hub.
- Perform work in a location that is free from dust, dirt and debris.
- Use paper shop towels while performing repairs. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of the danger of lint adhering to parts.
- Do not drop any of the components such as the brake drum, wheel bearing, spindle, or wheel hub lock nut. If any of these parts have been dropped, they must be replaced.
- Always check that the tools used to press-fit the wheel bearing to the brake drum have no wear and deformation. Damaged tools will not guarantee that pressure can be applied vertically and damage parts.
