Things to note when disassembling skf

When disassembling bearings, please wear protective clothing and goggles. When using a puller to remove bearings, make sure to select a suitable puller with sufficient pulling force to reduce the risk of overloading the puller. Overloading the puller may cause the robot arm or shaft to break, injuring the operator. Wrap a protective sleeve around the puller and bearing during disassembly to reduce the risk of personal injury if the bearing, arm, or shaft breaks. When disassembling bearings by heating, please wear heat-insulating gloves. For your safety, please do not directly use hard objects such as hammers or chisels to hit the bearings. Apply disassembly force to the tightest fitting part of the bearing.
