Abstract
There is provided a method of assembling a worm reducer, which includes causing a worm wheel to be rotatably supported in a wheel accommodation part, externally fitting a pair of bearings at tip-side and base-side positions of a worm, inserting the worm into a worm accommodation part from an opening side thereof at a state where the worm is offset outward in a radial direction of the worm wheel with respect to a center axis of the worm accommodation part, causing the bearing which is externally fitted to a leading side in an insertion direction of the worm to pass an outer diameter-side of a part of an outer peripheral edge of the worm wheel, which protrudes most into the worm accommodation part, causing the worm teeth to mesh with the worm wheel, and further inserting the worm to a predetermined position in the worm accommodation part.
