3. Lubricate the bearing mounting points and the recess for the working cylinder pusher with high-melting grease. Install the spring clip.
4. Install the bearing on the fork.
5. Place the bearing on the primary shaft of the gearbox. Pass the fork through the boot and place the fork on the support, pressing it until it clicks.
