TEMP MODE
• If the remote control display shows 't', press MODE to select TEMP MODE. The
remote control display shows °C or °F in TEMP MODE.
• The selected temperature is shown on the remote control display. The default
temperature for bearings is 110 °C (230 °F). If a different temperature is
desired, press UP or DOWN to adjust the temperature in steps of 1°.
• It may be desirable to heat bearings to temperatures above 110 °C (230 °F) for
increased mounting time. Consult the SKF bearing specifications to determine
the maximum permitted temperature. Always ensure the bearing does not lock
due to an excessive expansion of the inner ring compared to outer ring. See
section 5.8.
• If needed press POWER to select the power level. Use the guidelines in section
5.8 to determine the correct power setting.
• Make sure the temperature probe is mounted on the bearing inner ring.
