The grates have 30° in- cline and the pusher rods that operate the various banks of grates keep the fuel marching steadily downward, without avalanching, to combustion, with unfailing accuracy and practically no labor. Coking Arch^. Dump Plate, Arm The National Stoker burns wood waste without expert firing. No careful spreading or placing is required. The downward sloping grates do away with the great labor of handling a big pile of refuse on horizontal grates. Dust and shavings can be blown in, while sticks or slabs may be passed through the fire door as usual. As the fuel is consumed the ashes are worked down towards the dump plate by levers operating pusher rods, from the front of the furnace. While the fuel moves down the grates under the hot arch it is consumed completely, no fuel being carried over the bridge wall into the combustion chamber, thus ensuring practically no smoke. The National Stoker is very popular in wood working plants and mills. Let us send you an illustrated, descriptive booklet. Engineering & Machine Works of Canada, Limited ST.
