Installation Tips
-
Confirm the existing bearing’s dimensions (14 × 8 × 4 mm) and that the seat/housing is clean and undamaged.
-
Inspect the spindle/shaft, housing and adjacent bearings for wear—bearings rarely wear alone.
-
Unplug the handpiece and allow it to stop fully.
-
Disassemble the handpiece to access the bearing area (rotor/spindle).
-
Remove the old bearing carefully, clean the seating surface.
-
Insert the new 1480ZZ bearing, ensure it seats properly, no debris or misalignment.
-
Re-assemble the handpiece and run it unloaded (no bit) to check for smooth operation, no abnormal noise or vibration.
