I'm trying to change the larger right hand bearing on my Jet 1642 spindle. The tech support and the manual both said to slide the bearing off the left end of the spindle, after removing the pulley and collar. But the center section of the spindle, where the key rests is 20 thousandths larger in diameter than where the bearing sits. So no way is that bearing "sliding off" that shaft. I can only guess that the spindle somehow comes apart to allow bearing replacement. Anyone have any insight into this dilemma? Thanks,
