Bearing Swaging Portable

The document describes the bearing swaging process using a portable tri-roller tool. It involves mounting a locating ring and draw rod through the bearing bore, then placing the swaging head assembly and adding pressure by turning the tensioner to push the rollers against the bearing. The process is repeated, increasing pressure each time until the bearing lip shows a minimal gap. The quality is then checked before removing the tool and finished.
