and insert the new carriage shaft—leave the end of the carriage shaft extended about 

½”

out of the  

right-side bearing hole and place your second bearing onto this shaft. Notice the carriage shaft now 
acts as an alignment guide for the second bearing.

 

Use a 6" piece of 1" diameter hardwood dowel and your hammer to pound in the bronze oilite bearing.

 

Test to see if the new carriage shaft slides between the two bearings. If you were careful and pound in 
the bronze oilite bearing.

 

Test to see if the new carriage shaft slides between the two bearings. If you were careful and pounded 
them in straight you should be able to continue with the rest of the reassembly right away. If the 
carriage shaft is just a little stiff you can probably leave it alone and let it work itself in over time. If 
the carriage shaft seems to be to tight then use a medium size plastic mallet and tap on the shaft in all 
directions accessible to "settle" in the bearings. Stop when the carriage shaft gets just loose enough to 
use. Reattach the machine's carriage.

 

You should recheck the depth, depth overtravel and space adjustment on your machine and readjust as necessary.
