Water content at .689% (6890 ppm) is likely the result of condensation or water ingression. Water contamination can lead to oil degradation, corrosion and
reduction in load carrying capacity. If specific source of moisture cannot be located, inspect or install desiccant breathers. The particulate contamination
exceeds our limits for a bearing (19/17/16). High particulate contamination will lead to abrasive wear and damage internal components. Reducing particle
levels will significantly extend component life. Fluid contamination is a possible contributor to elevated wear metals.

Observations: Analytical ferrography has discovered the following abnormalities. Heavy levels of ferrous rubbing wear particles up to 30 microns in size. Rubbing
wear particles are generated as the result of normal sliding wear in a machine. Excessive particulate contamination in the lubricating system can significantly
increase the generation of rubbing wear particles. Heavy levels of ferrous sliding wear particles over 100 microns in size. Severe sliding wear occurs under
excessive load and/or speed. These particles are distinguished by linear striations indicating sliding contact. High levels of dark metallic oxides. Dark metallic
oxides, partially oxidized ferrous wear particles, are typically generated under high temperatures and loads.
