A swivel arch clamp issuiijilied for each of the V-blocks, and these are so arrangedas to hold work 32 in. in diameter. The drive of the machine is from a ijelt-connectcd motorthrough a solid bronze worm wheel and hardened steelworm fitted with roller thrust bearings. A spur pinion withteeth cut in the solid shaft transmits the power to the spindledriving gear. The feed motion is taken from the drive shaftthrough gears to the oil-tight feed Ijox in which the changegears are mounted on a sliding sleeve controlled by latchlevers in the cover. From this box the motion is transmittedto the saddle feed screw through a feed worm and wonnwheel which is positively clutched. The control of the machine is from the rear. The for-ward feed is provided with an automatic .stop, and therapid traverse forward and back also has an automatic feed and rapid traverse mechanism is enclosed with. Powerful Cold Saw Cuttlnq-Off Machine Designed to Use 76-in, Diameter Inserted Tooth Saw any specified voltage and either direct or alternating currentmay be used. The power transmission is accomplished bymeans of an endless lielt indicated, which has a three-pointcontact with both the driving and driven pulleys, and thentravels over a compensating two-pulley arrangement, which curtain covers. Positive safety release is provided for eachextreme position of the traverse. The oil and chip pan iscast on the base and drains the lubricant back to the reser-voir. A loose chip jian is fitted lietween the tables for drain-ing to the base oil pan.
