Richard -

The bearing is not designed to go all the way in and sit against the seal.
 If you read your manual about the rear bearing, it is supposed to protrude
the surface a couple of MM, I don't know the exact measurement.  Look at the
manual.  Once the gasket is on, it will be more or less flush with the paper
gasket.
