Hey Guys;

How do I get the bottom bearing out of my PC 75182 that came with my Shopbot. I see Shopbot includes the instructions but I have had the rebuild kit for about 2 yrs and the instructions if they came with it are long gone!

Thanks
Mike Purcell

You need an air wrench and a 1 1/8" socket and Newtonian physics:

1. Remove the 3 screws from the router's bottm bearing retainer.
2. Secure router inside of a vice type tool or hold router so it doesn't move.
3. Set air wrench for counter clockwise or in the direction that unscrews.
4. Remove the 1 1/8" nut with air wrench.

The speed and torque of the air wrench removes the nut before the rest of the router knows what happened.
