Cheers PoTreeBoy. My only concern was the lower seal is a different part number to the top and therefore begs the question why is that if it is sealing identical bearings. I guess once I strip it that'll get answered.

Thanks GJ. Thats where I've landed. Got a bearing shop local to me I used when I run an old print press so was going to try them.

Hi all. Firstly hello I just wanted to say a big thank you to the people on the forum that have posted and helped me so far with servicing and maintenance. A few years ago I got a TG1860. I know it is an old machine but its low hours and I absolutely love it and wanted to keep it going and show...
