^
First pull the inner bearing race several millimeters off the wheel hub (Figure 741_97) so that the separator can be put into place. For this
purpose, use a two-claw puller in combination with a suitable pressure piece (e.g. VW 433).

Before installation, clean the bore in the wheel bearing housing and remove any surface irregularities with a polishing cloth.
