Let me preface this saying that there are several variations of wheels and bearings.
Generally, first remove the dust seals, then remove any snap rings or clips that may retain the bearings. Using a hammer and long punch, go through the center support and punch the bearing from the back side. Take care to drive the bearing evenly because if cocked , the bearing becomes very difficult to move. Do the same for both sides.
Torque on the axel may vary but I wouldn't exceed 90ft lbs or 122nm. As always if you can't figure it out read the manual.
