In place of making the front of thecasing in a vertical plane, the taper coursewas cut away to bring its cross section tothe shape required. By adopting this planall flat surfaces which might lead to theformation of ice were avoided. The frontcasing is reinforced by a second thicknessof % in. plate along its lower front edge,and heavily braced with tee irons. Theback of the casing is constructed of steelcastings, having flanges for attachment tothe gusset plates, which are securely rivetedto the frame. This view also shows thetaper wheel fit of the main shaft, whichis 11% in. diameter and 12 ft. 2 ins. long-over all. The front bearing is 11% ins. dia-meter by 28 ins. long. Behind this is amarine type thrust bearing having 10collars and a rear bearing 10 ins. diameterby IOV2 ins. long. The thrust bearing wasintrodti
