Cont. [I don't know what happened to the rest of what I wrote:]
I think the division of the sentence maybe should be:
||axial [play in the shafts of the alternator and generator/dynamo||
||of the tail of|| ||the Tacke Olalde reducing/reduction gearbox||
I'm by no means certain of this. But I was unable to find anything relevant about "dinamo de cola". There is such a thing as a "tail dynamo" for bicycles, which produces current from the rotation of the bike's wheel to power a taillight, without having to deal with batteries - but this seems a long ways away from what we have in this Question.

Explicación:
El generador de cola, es un generador que es movido por la energía del eje del motor principal que es el que también tiene como principal objetivo mover la hélice. En inglés se le conoce como shaft generator.
Generador en español es un generador de corriente alterna y dínamo en español es un generador de corriente continua.

Dínamo de cola: sistema de generación de corriente continua mediante el acople al motor principal o a la reductora con un canal por donde pasa el cabo.

Enseguida el fuego de la chimenea alcanzó grandes proporciones y los maquinistas, que inicialmente pensaron que podía tratarse de disparos de aviso para detener el buque, bajaron a la sala de máquinas a parar el motor principal, lo que provocó que se apagaran las luces **(por la dinamo de cola)**. Al abandonar la sala de máquinas, el primer maquinista recibió un tiro en la pierna pero sin afectar al hueso. La primera pasada completa había durado alrededor de cuatro minutos y el efecto era devastador. El telegrafista decidió regresar a la cabina de radio, situada en la misma cubierta del puente, para emitir un mensaje de socorro pero, entre el incendio y la antena destrozada, no fue posible la transmisión.
