Wow! Thanks for doing this video. I can't believe you pulled both bearings when they didn't need to be changed just to give us an education. You're a scholar and a gentleman for sure!!
I really appreciate that you took the time to make and share this video. It was very helpful after a catastrophic failure of one my main bearings on a 78H. I ended up replacing both housings, too, but luckily they aren't that expensive.
My problem was a piece of field fence caught up by the blades and jammed into the small space next to the bearing. This video was perfect for me. Would not have looked for the "built in" pulley puller. Nice!. Only thing I would add, is that the belts come off really easy if you remove the pulley first. In my case, I couldn't turn the pulley to help get the belts off. With the pulley removed, just slipped right out! I only got the rotor back in place today and quit for the evening. All told I have spent about seven hours on this, but part was removing the wrapped fence wire, I am working outside, and only have hand tools.
Thank you ... Really appreciate the help, mine got a wire beetwen the main roller and the bearings need to disassembly since is stuck and not able to run :( but thanks for this help ...
First of all, great work.. Just curious, after changing the bearings, did rotor balanced? Or there is another issue was causing balance ? My question is ; is there way , trick etc. to find the cause and balance it on your own without taking to a machine shop ? Thank you.
Excellent video, presentation(s) of multiple techniques, and audio Was Your 4 element oven home made? Looks Store bought I was wondering if reheating the bearing assemblies slightly ( NOT Very Much ) after greasing so the grease flows into all the voids better, maybe warm the assembly before applying grease so it flows like melting butter since it sounded like each bearing has double rows of ball bearings in each bearing assembly. Your video excellent Ken in Florida
yes, the oven is homemade 4' x 3' x 3 I built this for a power paint oven..... and use it for multiple purposes......is constructed of all aluminum with rock wool insulation inside..... 4 independent heating elements........
David Home, did you even watch the video? There's nothing wrong with the bearings. He even says so about 4 times. The video is instructional on how to change bearings...the machine didn't need them replaced. You must be another low information Democrat. They draw conclusions without regard to facts all the time.

Wow! What a great video. Thank you for going to all this trouble.
This guy is Great!!!! I don't even own one of these but really enjoyed the video!!!!
Thanks very much. Very helpful.
I know I’m 6 years late but when putting the bearings back on the flail shaft, do you use grub screws on the shaft through the bearing?
Excellent job well done. 🇦🇺😉🙂👍
How’s your flail mower doing after all these years?

Excelente, muito bom, obrigado.
How many hours are on this mower?
Thanks for vid !
It's a dial indicator, not a gauge or meter. Just FYI, for the future.
Are you referring to the DTI Dial Test Indicator, we might as well have it completely correct.
Looks too new to be changing bearings. Thought about buying one, not so sure now!

Starter fluid is also very cold
