2.3. Preparing the back of the
outer drum.
Check the back of the outer drum in the friction
area of the seals. This surface should be clean
and should not display dents, scratches or
deformations.
For proper tightness, this surface should be totally
clean.

The adherence of remains of rubber coming from
the seals can be cleaned with solvent.
The adherence of lime can be cleaned with an
anti-lime liquid and then wiped away with a damp
cloth.
