4 Hubs, hub bearings

General

ECO Plus 2
Hub cap/ECOMETER
BPW trailer axles with the ECO Plus 2 bearing have hub
caps (and ECOMETER) with a bayonet lock.
The bayonet lock replaces the previously usual threaded
connection.
An installation spanner with SW 120 (BPW item number
03.339.05.02.0, see also BPW tool catalogue) is needed
for assembly or disassembly of the new hub caps with
the bayonet lock.

 An impact driver must not be used for
assembly/disassembly of hub caps or
ECOMETERS with a bayonet lock!

Removal
For removal, the hub cap is turned counterclockwise
approx. 30° with the installation spanner (Fig.).
When turned further, the hub cap lifts clearly away from
the hub seat.
The released position is also indicated by markings on
the hub cap and on the wheel hub (Fig. / arrows).
In the released position the hub cap can be removed
axially from the wheel hub.

Assembly Assembly
The seal between the hub cap and the wheel hub takes
the form of an O-ring in the case of the ECO Plus 2 unit.
The O-ring is inserted in the groove on the neck of the
wheel hub and is to be replaced at every assembly. The
hub cap itself is to be given a thin coating of ECO-Li Plus
BPW special longlife grease inside in the area of the
bayonet lock, before assembly.
Corresponding markings in the hub cap and on the hub
make it easier to assemble the hub cap.
The ﬁ gure shows the hub cap in the correct position for
ﬁ tting, with the spanner engaged.
After being placed in position, the hub cap is axially
pressed onto the hub and at the same time turned in
clockwise direction. The hub cap is tightly seated when
the position shown in Fig. (arrows) has been reached.
