The cam, it will be observed, is the lower member, and is driven from the flywheel shaft by a gearing. What looks like a collar next the flywheel hub is not a collar but a part of the casting, as you may see by looking at your own mechanism. This illustration will be valuable to you when you are following the process of disassembling described in Instructions Nos. 8 and 9. LUBRICATION. — This is of utmost importance as applies to the intermittent oil well. See General Instruction No. 1 Use none but perfectly clean oil of good grade. Under no circumstances use a light oil, such as Three-in-One.

Figure 263 over the star and bushing. The other tube carries oil to the flywheel shaft bearing. The oil casing should be filled about one-third full of oil. The manufacturer advises against using an oil can to put oil into the oil well, because of the likelihood of dirt getting into the casing. It recommends the use of a glass syringe, which may be had at any drug store. The glass barrel enables you to examine the oil before it is put in, and determine whether or not it is entirely free from dirt. Keep the syringe in a box, protected from dust, and wipe the tip clean before using. Small particles of dirt or dust may work serious damage to the closely fitted, highly polished parts.
