The housing includes a first portion, a second portion, and a transition portion connecting the first portion and the second portion. The first bearing is coupled to the first portion. The first bearing rotatably supports the first shaft and resists at least a portion of a first radial load exerted on the first shaft. The second bearing is coupled to the second portion and rotatably supports the second shaft. At least a portion of the first radial load is transmitted to the transition portion from the first bearing.
