Jack,
Early parts lists and manuals don't mention the felt plugs and almost all early machines up through the first version Commercial don't have them as-found. They were added sometime between 1964 and 1975. There were no revisions of the early parts manuals after about 1960 but in my opinion, the felt plugs should be retrofitted to all Timken bearing models that don't have them. They aren't needed on the sleeve bearing 6".
