Rotor Head pre asembled??

[farren]

Just finishing my build and it looks like the Rotor head has come pre-assembled. Greased and loctite. I started taking it apart to be sure and im fairly sure.... Can anyone else confirm this.

Thank you

Yep, but I'd still pull it apart and check everything.

Is there a safe way to remove the Second loctite screw from the feathering spindle? I almost wish they hadn't assembled the head.

Usually if I'm pulling the head apart its to replace the Feathering spindle. I would normally throw it in a vice. But i don't want to replace a new one.

I use a tool with a one-way bearing in it. I dont remember the name of them. Works great for when you want to keep the shaft nice.

Brilliant! Wish i had thought of that..... I ended up using the vice and wrapped it in card board. Funny thing is when i did get it apart the thrust bearings were facing the wrong way on one side of the head. The instructions say to face the open side of the bearing race out, away from the center of the head. I just matched the instructions.
