    • Continue to tap down the bearing carrier until the bearing and spacer are fully secured around the roll pin.

    • Use a roll pin punch to finish seating the roll pin into place.

    • Place a piece of cloth or mat on top of the vise below the bearing carrier to prevent marring the outer surface of the bearing carrier.

    • Before moving to the next step, ensure the roll pin is fully seated and completely within the bearing carrier. A slightly exposed roll pin may damage the inside of your feeder body when the bearing carrier assembly is being installed.
