To get to bearing you don't need to remove that acorn nut , it's a looking ring at bearing flange

On the Finessas with a removable under-spool metal flange, the flange must be removed since it also serves as a bearing retainer.

The 4 mm socket got the acorn trip screw out,I replaced the bearing with a Fast Eddie Ceramic bearing.

This is my 1st teardown of a 285,I like my 220s,but with these guys make it simple no badges or decals,or snap ring to deal with.Paint touch up is good with black satin or VHT wrinkle paint.I just need some parts from my favorite DQ supplier ;D 

Me caveman,me like simple...
