Ok, Ok, I put away the center punch, is everybody happy now :), it was just a question...at least I asked 1st., although it was an accepted method of tightening bearing races in the end-bells of some electric motors, back when. Now, how difficult is it to get the pivot pin screw on this old 1890 grade 2, G model loose, without buggering the slot?

thanks for all the replies,
