At a distance,R, to the left of the plane o a, draw astraight line at right angles to the centerline of tiie engine. This will be the centerline or symmetrical axis of the lap-and-lead lever, and will also pass through thegeometrical location of point G on thelap-and-lead lever when the piston is ateither end of its
