Rear gable and bearing
The rear gable and the bearing trunnion housing are constructed of a
webbed heavy casting for extra rigidity. There are two neoprene seals to
protect from filtration of water. The sleeve bearings are water protected. An
intermediate safety outlet provides an escapement for any possible conden-
sation.
The seals are mounted on a chrome-plated, specially hardened sleeve
bushing that is mounted on the drum shaft to prevent wear of the seals and
shaft. The main bearing is fitted machine-tight into the bearing trunnion
housing. A C-clamp is placed on the shaft to prevent the cylinder from
moving in and out.
The extension of the bearing trunnion housing supports the rear bearing
holding the shaft. The bearings are permanently lubricated and need no
maintenance.
