CONNECTING RODS. The connecting rods areforged steel of the marine type at the crankend, and a splid end wedge take-up, at thepiston end. At the crank end, the bolts aresuch that the upper half of the crank pinbearings are held firmly to the connectingrod regardless of the wear on its bearings,which are of phosphor bronze. The upper or wrist pin box of the con-necting rod is slotted out of the solidforging and has brasses with wedge adjust-ment. The top of the rod carries an oilpan, draining to the pin, and the lower endof the rod contains oil pockets on each side. Flvure i. (jiiiiilcrs and all cuiiiiiMtloiis TEST OF I. H, C.

The pistons have foufi packingrings and a beveled oil-wiper ring, which isdesigned as a section of a cone so that on thedown stroke of the piston it scrapes the oiloff of the cylinder and thus avoids the pump-ing effect. For this reason a high oil levelmay be maintained in the hase without dangerof fouling the igniter or valves in the com-bustion chamber, CRANK SHAFT. The crank shaft is fourinches in diameter, of open hearth steel, andhas a tensil« strength of 75,000 pounds. Itis supported by three bearings which are castin the base and babitted. These are lubricatedby the dripping oil from the top of the baseand rest on flat surfaces, so that they may beeasily leveled^after wear takes place,by placingthin metal liners under the box. ^Mlz!!^ ^ •5^^^^^^^BI|li ^%^4f# ^B fS L^*^*n^ A«]4V Fleure 3.
