Sealed Wheel Bearing on Demco Kar-Kaddy SS
I have just acquired a model KK460SS. I find in doing basic service, that the wheel bearings are sealed units. Any ideas as to how I can tell if they need replaced? I find no play. But, I also do ...

Their cheap alright. A previous poster has never seen the hefty bearings on a Demco Caddy. They are a big heavy duty sealed unit that are not designed be serviced. And I'd bet they cost a fortune if you had to replace one. That's the ticket here, you never will have to replace them, they are designed lifetime sealed unit. Well maybe submerged in water for a year or 2, you mite want to check them.
Spin the wheels, if no noise, You good to go another 7 (or 20) yrs
Does Demco warrantee these bearings for life?
From the Demco KK260 and KK360 manual:
"Your Demco Kar Kaddy is warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one year after date of purchase by the original (first) retail owner or until it is resold or transferred by the original owner. New Departure Hyatt Hubs used on the KK260 and KK360 are warranted for a period of three years after the date of purchase by the original (first) retail owner or until resold or transferred by the original owner."
I trust that answers the warranty question.
