lost data list on QF 32 case

So one more time, now with a Adobe generated file. Sorry for all the inconvenience,

file:///Puffer/QF_32_RPM_VIB_OIL_2.pdf

Hope it works now

What I can read from these data is, the oil circuit was working, there was no big loss of oil as one could expect after the rupture of an oilpipe that has an inner diameter of about 13 - 14 mm or about half an inch. Miracoulous is that heavy vibration of the HP part while the others stayed fairly calm. That brought in mind our discussion about the bevelgear ring that sits in front of that nr.3 bearing. One has to realize that this part turns as fast as the HP shaft - 11000 rpm !! I have no idea if that driveshaft that runs into the inner gearbos really goes so many rpm or even more because of that difference in teeth involved. Very amazing structure there.
