Sufficient time should be allowed for the condenserand sight feed glasses to fill with water. Water-valve Dshould be opened immediately after the steam valve isopened. The flow of oil to the cylinders should be regu-lated by valves EE and to the air-pump by valve L. To operate the auxiliary oilers it should first be ascer-tained that valve H is closed. Valve X should then be
