moving it.

The tumbler (basket) is made of five (5) 14-gauge stainless steel perforated panels, five (5) stainless steel
lifting ribs, and two (2) outer tumbler (basket) rings. The tumbler (basket) is a completely welded assembly
so the perforated panels are not removable.

The tumbler (basket) sits on four (4) 11-inch (28 cm) diameter heavy-duty rubber roller wheels which
supports and drives the tumbler (basket). The steel hubs are fastened to the 2-inch (5.08 cm) diameter drive
shafts by taper lock bushings. Each drive shaft is supported by two (2) 2-inch (5.08 cm) diameter heavy
duty roller bearings. The position of the tumbler (basket) is adjusted by moving these bearings in or out with
the four (4) bearings adjustment bolts.
