🔍 Key Concepts

• Immediate casualty control versus reporting procedures • Effects of continued load on a damaged / overheating bearing • Role of lube oil flow and cooling in bearing temperature

💭 Think About

• If a main engine bearing is already showing high temperature, what action most directly and immediately protects the bearing from further damage? • Which option is primarily about communication, and which are about actually changing the load or cooling on the bearing? • What happens to a hot bearing if you keep the same load on it while you investigate the problem?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice most directly reduces load or stress on the affected bearing right away • Decide whether it is safer to act first, then report, or report first, then act in this specific emergency • Ask yourself which actions might worsen the overheating if done before controlling the engine load
