B. Bearing/Seal Inspection and Replacement
When inspecting bearings or seals:
1.
Inspect the grease seal for damage, tears, or
cracks. If there is no damage or leakage is not
occurring, the seal is in good condition.
If the seal is torn or cracked, then it should be
replaced. The seal can be pried out of the hub
with a screw driver. Be sure to replace the seal
using the recommended replacement parts. Parts
can be obtained from your Four Winns dealer.

3.
When inspecting the bearing, check for corrosion
and wear. If any rust or wear exists on the bear-
ing, then remove and replace with the recom-
mended parts listed in the table above.

the grease should be done at this time. Hand pack
each bearing individually using a premium water
resistant wheel bearing grease.
