you will find a locating tab on the
underside of the lifter. Pilot holes are
also found in the tumbler. When the
clothes lifter is installed, the tab is
inserted into the slot in the tumbler.
This correctly aligns the screw holes in
the lifter with those in the tumbler.

The tumbler roller consists of a rubber
tire bonded to a plastic hub.
There are two roller and bearing
