A preload guide system guides, in a horizontal plane, movement of a rotation structure having journals rotating around a rotation axis having a horizontal rotation shaft. At right-side surfaces of the journals, guide bearing components press predetermined positions on the same side with respect to an axial-direction reference plane and rotatably support the journals. At left-side surfaces of the journals, guide bearing components press positions corresponding to the guide bearing components at the right side surfaces, and rotatably support the journals. The support systems adjust displacement amounts of the guide bearing components such that a sum of the displacement amounts becomes zero.
