4. Take apart the front wheel hub oil seal, the inner race and
roller assembly of bearing 32007.
(a) Pry out the oil seal.
(b) Take out the bearing inner race and roller assembly.
Front Wheel Hub
Disassembly of Front Wheel Hub
1. Take apart the brake caliper.
2. Take apart the front wheel hub cap.
3. Take apart the front wheel hub and front brake disc:
(a) Take apart the split pin to take down the lock cover.
(b) Screw off the lock nuts of the hub bearing with spanner
and take down the stop washer.
(c) Take apart the front wheel hub and front brake disc with
the bearing 30205 together.
Disassembly the wheel hub and suspend it with tightwire.
Remark: Donít dismantle the brake hose and brake metal pipe
Takeapart the front wheel hub cap from the gap between the
front wheel hub cap and the front wheel hub.
5. Bearing outer race inspection and tear-down
(a) Inspect the bearings
Clean each bearing and check them to see whether there is wear
or damage.
(b) Take apart the bearing outer race
Tap out the bearing outer race with copper bar and hammer.
Notice: bind the disassembled inner and outer bearing
race together to avoid of mixing.

6. Inspection and replacement for front brake disc
(a) Check the wear situation of the front brake disc. (see Dr
the brake caliper).
(b) Use the spanner to tear down the bolts that connect the
front wheel hub and the front brake disc.
(c) Connect the front wheel hub and the front brake disc with
bolt and spring washer, and screw up the bolts with a
moment spanner to the specified torque in the diagonal
order.
Fastening torque
(60-79)N
m
(d) Conduct the equilibrium test on the dynamic balancer,
the amplitude value displayed should not be larger than
13.5g under the condition that the measuring rotating
velocity is 796 r/m and the locking rotating velocity is
786 r/m, when the amplitude value is larger than 13.5 g,
encase the counter balanced clip, which is 4 g each, at the
corresponding phase, the number of the clip encased
should not be more than four.
7. Bearing outer race change
Press in the new bearing outer space with the special service
tools.
Notice: the bearing inner and outer races should be changed at
one time.
Assembly of Front Wheel Hub
1. Mount on the Bearing 32007 inner race and roller assem-
bly as well as the front wheel hub oil seal.
Coat the lithium base grease of (4-5)mm on the inner surfaces
of bearing outer race and the front wheel hub, encase the
Bearing 32007 inner race and roller assembly, plaster the
lubricant again. Coat a little lubricant on the lips of front wheel
hub oil seal and then tap it in place.
Notice: do not make the lubricant contact the front brake
disc face.
2. Mount on the Bearing 32007 inner race.
After coating the bearing outer race with the lithium base
grease of 4-5 mm, encase the inner race and roller assembly of
Bearing 30205, and plaster the lubricant again.

3. Mount the front wheel hub on the steering knuckle.
Coat a little lubricant at the position of the steering knuckle
where the oil seal locates, mount the front wheel hub and front
brake disc on the steering knuckle, and then mount on the stop
washer.
4. Preload adjustment
(a) Mount on the lock nut and screw up according to the
specified torque.
Fastening torque
(130-150)N

(b) Run the front wheel hub about 1/4-1/3 of circle, and
combine it with the bearing seat.
(c) Loosen the locking nut to ensure the front brake disc run
freely, and then screw up the nuts to the specified torque.
Fastening torque
(25-35)N
m
(d) Hook the front wheel hub with the spring-tension meter
and pull the spring-tension meter slowly in the tangential
direction of this spot.
The reasonable range of tension force: (16-33)N.
Remark: if the tension force is larger or smaller of the reason-
able range, screw up the nuts again until the tension force falls
within the reasonable range.
(e) Measure the bouncing value of the front brake disc,
which should not be larger than 0.11mm.
5. Mount on the lock cover and the split pin
