What is the bearing size?
The actual bearing appears to be an R002RS.
ID 15mm
OD 32mm
Width: 9mm
I used a large socket to push the bearing out of the squarish bracket. The bearing needs to be pushed out from top to bottom (as it would be oriented when the sander is sitting upright on a surface).
I placed the socket inside the opening in the top, and put screws into the bottom (I happened to have some longer screws with the same thread pitch) to provide clearance for the bearing to come out. Then I pressed it with a vise. Tapping the socket with a hammer would also work.
Shouldn't the title be "How to remove a bearing housing"? You don't give any instructions on how to actually remove the bearing from the housing, nor how to insert a new bearing into the housing and reassembly.
I'm sorry, but it feels like you got part way into the instructions, got bored and said, "eh, it's good enough."
