Installation, preventative and corrective maintenance procedures are covered in detail with numerous illustrations.

A wide range of problems with solutions are addressed in the troubleshooting section.

These include problems related to installation, selection, environment and original design.

The well-illustrated bearing section addresses bearing type - mounted ball, mounted roller and rubber mounted with their general applications; and locking type - concentric, eccentric and setscrew applications are outlined and compared.

The bearing section also reviews air handling housing fit and its impact on operating air-handling applications.

Both SealMaster and Browning brand bearings are highlighted.
