| Critical New Bearing Inspections |
|
Carefully inspect new bearings upon arrival for any obvious damage that may have occurred during shipping, storage or manufacture. Inspect bearings to determine if all parts are present. Bearings have been known to ship from the factory missing roller elements and other parts. Also, check for factory lubricant. Lack of lubricant from factory can cause rust.

| Book Bits: 3 Objectives of Analyzing Used Oil |
|
From "Oil Analysis Basics - Second Edition"
The objectives of used oil analysis, our focus, differ substantially from new oil analysis, although many of the tests are very similar or identical in nature. The objectives of used oil analysis are: (1) to evaluate the condition or age of oils that are in service, (2) to detect and measure harmful foreign suspensions (contaminants), and (3) to evaluate the condition of the machine being lubricated. In machine condition monitoring applications, the lubricant serves merely as the carrier of the information that is generated by the machine in the form of wear debris.
