Rams are caused to stopat the highest point of their stroke by springs whichthrow the clutch out when this is permitted by an escape-ment at the proper point. Guards, strippers (which prevent work from liftingwhen thepunch rises), gauges, distance pieces, shearholders for cutting off or slitting sheets along the edges,etc., are shown in the various illustrations presented, andare tools of such obvious purpose as to require little ex-planation. Shears and punches do what may be termed roughingout work, and their province has been somewhat en-croached upon by the heavier cuts of modern finishingtools.
