Beginning with the boiler, level thecenter line till in a horizontal the firebox till the vertical centerline is vertical. The cylinder saddlesshould be fitted to locate the center lineparallel to the center line of the boiler,regardless of the smokebox, with backcylinder faces at right angles thereto. Thealignment of the frames should be atright angles to the back joint faces of thecylinders, and consequently parallel tothe center lines thereof, as shown in and 2. Square jaw centers on frames for shoesand wedges, so that driving boxes andaxles will be square or at right angleswith cylinder line, and when this operationis carefully and thoroughly done, we mayconsider that
