Mystery Washer in Kit and Video

I've used the Hotpoint Tumble Dryer Drum Shaft Kit (V4) on my Hotpoint VTD65A seemingly with success, but I'm confused by the (M10?) steel washer in the kit. As per the video, when I dismantled mine there was no sign of there having ever been such a washer, and yet on the video, when it came time to reassemble, magically there was a need for this washer to be added (and no mention of it being additional to what was there before). Can you clarify whether this washer is needed on a VTD65A, and if so why it's needed now when it wasn't part of the original design?

    Hi,

    The washer in question comes with the Kit but indeed was not on the model used. Some models do not require this washer but as the kit comes with it and for added assurance we used it on the Video model.

    Thanks.
