The engine, attached to side of hydro-extractor,is connected to the shaft of basket by Machine C* With friction cones and pulley for belt driving, this is thehydro-extractor we recommend for use where M^ater-power isabundant, or where, for any reason, belt-driving is preferableto a steam engine or an electric motor. For such placesmachine C is highly satisfactory, being simple, compact,durable, and always ready for work. The •? Bd or Bottoni=Discharge Machineis the newest style of hydro-extractor. It is so constructed that, by means of a lever, the bottomof basket is easily opened and the contents are dischargedinto a suitable conveyor or receptacle beneath the machine. In all other particulars this hydro-extractor is like ma-chine B. The facility of loading, afforded by clear space three-fourths of the way around the basket, and the convenienceof the bottom-discharge, coupled with ease of control, speed,and smooth operation, make machine Bd a time-saver,and a labor-saver, whose importance can hardly be over-estimated.
