All risk of soiling the yarn while being doffed iseliminated by the use of our patented oiling arrange-ment, applied to doffing wheel. The spindles are usually made with auniform friction, but an adjustable frictionspindle may be had, if preferred. The swift is adjustable for 54, 60and 72 skeins, and can be arrangedto wind 90 skeins also. Driving Pulleys: 12 inches diameter by 2 inch face, runningfrom 100 to 150 revolutions per min-ute, according to the size of skeinand strength of yarn. Horse Power: 300 spindles per horse power. Floor space : width, 2 feet,2 inches ; length, according to thenumber of spindles and space as per table of floor space.
