Keep the water valve D always open, exceptduring the period of filling the cup, as per direc-tion. 3. Once in two weeks, at least, blow out the cupwith steam, opening all valves wide, with the exceptionof the filling plug, which should remain closed. 4.

This will tend to keep the joints tight. The Detroit No. 21 Triple Feed Locomotive Lubricator,with auxiliary oilers and gauge glass. Fig. 200. This device is simple in construction and simple ofoperation. The oil is maintain-ed at a uniform tem-perature and will notchill. The feed is abso-lutely regular. All feeds are vis-ible from two sides. An additionalvalve has been plac-ed at the top of thelubricator to controlthe supply of steamfrom the boiler, mak-ing the device self-contained. Directions for Oper-ating. When thelubricator is first ap-plied, blow out thor-oughly, then close allthe valves.
