The washing unit is suspended by two coil springs (8) attached to the top crossbar, and the oscillations are
dampened by three shock absorbers, two on the right (9) and one on the left (10) (looking straight at the front

In washing machines:
in the SERIES 7, all three shock absorbers are the same, whereas in the SERIES 8 and 9 the left one (10)
