These metal frameworks are built up and drilled to tem-plate and the apparatus is also drilled to template. Theprincipal advantages secured by the adoption of this methodof installing the apparatus under the car are the following: The number of holes drilled on the under framework ofthe car is very materially reduced, and, therefore, the carstructure is not weakened in any way; the apparatus isinterchangeable from one equipment to another, everything. 0000 n-oZ/ej-^ I 1 M M M 1 1 11 m7i 1 1 1 1 1 /^aer \oooo :300000cm ^00000 C/)f 1 jocooo CM \oood DIAGRAM OF FEEDER LAY-OUT
