Secondly, it is now evident that treadle 2, must not be acted uponthe tenth motion, because that treadle throws the shuttle to theright hand side, where it already is. The next thing to be accom-plished, is to slide the other cam, which, works treadle 2, sideways,so as to throw the acting arm to the right hand side of treadle 2 ;which is elTected by means of the lever /-, and its follower or oval Pig: ftg-.^ai.
