This tool's universal feature consists in being able to adapt to the
irregular geometric shapes of hubs/king pins on which the operator
must often intervene.
The tool set comes with several components, the most important
being the following:
- 1 supporting plate (ref.
1
- 3 spacer units consisting of a high column and a slotted base
(ref.
,
)
2
3
- 1 low column (ref.
)
4
- 3 threaded screws (ref.
5
- 1 centering disc (ref.
)
7
- 4 safety screws (ref.

PROCEDURE
•
Place the spacer units onto the supporting plate and adjust
the units' position (fig. 3/a).
•
Tighten the threaded screws in the columns (fig. 3/b),
adjusting the screws' height to find three stable supporting
points on which to place the hub from which to remove/into
which to insert the bearing.
•
At this point, lock the position of the spacer units (fig. 4).
Make sure that the support in the aforesaid three
points is adequate; the hub should be in the
correct position (fig. 5).
The hub's axis must strictly match the force's
direction.
Make sure the assembled tool is in the correct
position on the press.
The supporting plate's safety screws must be
on the outside of the press' cross members or
supporting bars (fig. 6).
The foregoing steps ensure the necessary safety
to prevent slipping or accidental dropping of the
plate. Always work with due precaution.
•
Then activate the press and remove (fig. 7) or insert (fig. 8)
the hub.
