Note:
As from 4/98, a new type of radial seal is used in the Series
and as a replacement. This radial seal may only be supported
with a "support bushing".
If the radial seal is supported without the support bushing (1)
for more than six months, operational reliability will no longer
be assured and the radial seal must not be used any further.
