Abstract

The present invention relates to a service tool (100) for translating a rotary shaft assembly (20) of an agitator system (10) in relation to a bearing housing (30) supporting the rotary shaft assembly (20). The service tool (100) comprises a tool (110) body, a shaft assembly attachment bracket (150) configured to be releasably attached to an end portion of the rotary shaft assembly (20), and a translation unit (180) configured to, when actuated, translate the shaft assembly attachment bracket (150) in relation to the tool body (100) along a translation axis (TA). The coupling arrangement (120) comprises at least one tool coupling detail (124) connected to the tool body (110) and configured to releasably engage a bearing housing coupling detail (34) of the bearing housing (30). The tool coupling detail (124) is movable along a axial direction (AD) in relation to the tool body (110) such that an abutment surface (112a) of the tool body (110) is biased against a support surface (32) of the bearing housing (30) in response to moving the tool coupling detail (124) along the axial direction (AD) while the tool coupling detail (124) engages the bearing housing coupling detail (34). A service arrangement (200) and a method (300) of translating a rotary shaft assembly (20) of an agitator system (10) in relation to a bearing housing (30) are also provided
