• We wish especially to call your attention to our new model
sixteen-horse-power traction.
• The general design of the engine remains the same. We have
changed the proportion of the gearing which increases the drawing
capacity.
• The boiler is 5-16 steel, double riveted, 29 inches diameter,
• The rear wheels are 58 inches diameter, 16 inch face, 9-16
inch steel plates with cast hubs, malleable spokes and cleets.
• The front wheels are 42 inches diameter, 8 inch face, 1-2 inch
steel plates with cast hubs and steel spokes.
• The frame of the platform is of Channel steel, secured to the
boiler with cast brackets; to the channel bars are fastened the
spiral springs that support the platform. The draw head passes
through the frame and is provided with a compression spring on the
inside which lessens the strain from a sudden jerking.
• The steel tool and coal boxes are fastened to the platform and
are of ample capacity.
