    • Use either prying force, impact, or torsion to break the glue under the metal collar

    • This may damage the collar visibly,

    • This will not stick back together, you will need some rubberised sealant or glue to put it back together

    • Press the new bearings into place

    • Be sure to only put force on the center bearing race as pressing from the outside race may damage the bearing

    • using one of the old bearings can help in distributing the load evenly

    • Replace the rubber dampers

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

You should now have a working Doxy with new Bearings!
some lubricant may be used to free up the bearings if the grease they come with is too thick
but be careful not to lubricate the rubber collars as they can slip and increase friction on the counterweight
