Unpack the slewing bearing carefully, do not damage the internal seals
The thickness of the supporting plates should be no less than that indicated below which is offered as a rough approximation only.
| Raceway Dia (mm) | 500 | 750 | 1000 | 1250 | 1500 | 2000 | 2500 | 3000 |
| Min Support Thickness (mm) | 20 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 | 50 | 65 | 60 |
The width of the supporting surface must be at least equal to the width of the ring it supports
Permissible flatness deviation and deflections in supporting structure.
In order to make the slewing bearing turn smoothly, the mounting structure should be stress-relived after welding procedure, The maximum permissible out-of-flatness, including slops and axial deflections is detailed in the respective tables. See table 1
Regarding the slope of the machined surfaces, the figures shown in the table refer to a support width of 100mm. another important factor is to ensure that the maximum value is reached only once per 180°sector.
As in the case of out-of-flatness, any deflections in the supporting structure must not allowed to lead to localized buckling which might cause tight spots in the raceways. This could easily lead to over-loads. For this reason, the same conditions as for the out-of-flatness will apply.
For the maximum permissible deflections in the Table 2, the permissible slope may be twice the value”P” in Table 1 (Reference width 100mm)
The maximum permissible axial deflections “V” shown in Table 2 apply to all bearings types and are indicated as a function of the track diameter of the bearing

Besides the inner and outer ring of a slewing bearing must rest fully on the supporting structure surface.
Choose bolts of recommended grade, quality class 10.9(metric) or SAE grade 8 bolts, Grade 12.9 bolts are only used in very rare circumstances.
Do not use a fully treaded bolt.
Only use treated hardened flat washers.
Use of elastic washers is absolutely prohibited. Do not reuse bolts, nuts and washers.
