Explanation:
Firstly I would comment that the standard of English in your excerpt is questionable (translation from another language, I would guess).
Secondly, the term "carter" seems to be an international term, and seems to coincide with various types of "cranks" - crankshaft, crank case, etc.

Don't know if this helps, though....
