Anyone ever changed the bearing in this drive motor?
Need to do it shortly I think but unsure how it comes apart.

Just found the parts book - looks like it's a grub screw holding it together.
Got troubles with the seed rate being approx 75% of what it should be. Wondered if the bearing was causing resistance meaning the motor wasn't doing the right number of revolutions.
Had it set at 60rpm and timed it but it's only doing 53/54 rpm.

they are not bad to do , as bearings get a bit of where they let seed dressing in and they start to run ruff and tight , seed isn't as bad as Fert , wd40 is your friend , the circles snap when you take them off some times , just line the alen screw up with hole and make sure it is well cleaned out , think they have locktight on , been a few years since I used to do them
