You don't say on what machine.

On motor vehicles, repair of front wheel bearings, means replacement.

The bearings are changeable and are an interference fit, inside the hub.

Knock the old ones out and press the new ones in.

Care is needed in pressing the new ones in, so that pressure is exerted on the right part, to save damaging the new beaing.

You generally need a haudraulic press, but could make a tool to wind it in using a long bolt or stud bar and suitable sized sockets.
