WCP SS WCD Loose Bearings

Posting here on behalf of a few of my students, who are having some concerns regarding the Single Speed West Coast Drive gearbox from West Coast Products. They've gone ahead and done a dry assemble of the gearboxes and have noticed that the output shaft construction is not actually held down in any way, resulting in the whole shaft, plus bearings, popping out very easily.

Any suggestions? We could always secure the bearings into the plates ourselves, but given that the instructions even mention when to include the grease but don't mention Locktite or glue, I wonder if maybe this isn't how it's supposed to go?

Some pictures

Thanks!
