TO REPLACE THE FRONT TUMBLER BEARING

NOTE: Illustration represents models AD-30 through AD-50. Models AD-15 and AD-25 use a 1

1/4” diameter flange bearing. The same procedure applies to both.

1. Remove tumbler pulley and bearing box (follow “TO REPLACE THE REAR TUMBLER BEARING”

steps 1 through 4).

2. Loosen set screws on rear tumbler bearing.

NOTE: Check tension of belts and alignment of tumbler before operating dryer.

3. Using a whell puller gently push the tumbler shaft torwards the front through the front tumbler bearing.

and strike it with a hevy hammer. To prevent damage to the shaft the wheel puller method is

preferred.
