Text Appearing Before Image:
Improved Cap Bars The Cap Bars are fastened to the Roller Stands by bracketswhich are independent of the slides, and consequently therolls can be set without moving the Cap Bars. When re-setting the rolls it is only necessary to adjust the nebs for themiddle and back lines, as the front nebs do not have to bedisturbed. 109 IMPROVED LAY GEARING.
Text Appearing After Image:
To facilitate making changes in the Lay Gears, we haveprovided two change places instead of one. Formerly it wasthe practice to change the gear on the end of the ReversingShaft or the one between the Reversing Bevels. In order to bring the change gears into a more conven-ient position and at the same time increase the range, wehave introduced two additional spur gears. One of these isnow the regular change gear, and is on a stud carried by anadjustable Quadrant Bracket. The short shaft carrying thebevel gears is now in a horizontal position instead of vertical. no Besides providing for two change places, this improve-ment dispenses with the Back Cross Rail and allows freeaccess to the main gearing. Any part of the gearing can betaken out and replaced with ease. There is no longer any necessity of changing any bevelgears. There are two spur gear changes, either of whichmay be used and which give a very wide range. The entirearrangement is very simple and convenient. USUAL ROLLER WEIGHT
