We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

DOUSERS DOUSERS 1. Dousers Open and Close Too Early or Too Late (a) — The switch may stick and in this way upset proper operation. Test and correct it by lubrication, if it is found faulty. The switch should be lubricated constantly to avoid a recurrence of this trouble. (b) — Dirty and loose contacts, which should be checked and remedied, are probably affecting the timing. (c) — The switch probably does not make a simultaneous contact with the contact units, and should be examined and corrected. 2. Dousers Fail to Operate (a) — An open circuit may be the reason for this trouble. If a broken circuit is found to be the cause, trace and then remedy it. (b) — Should the coil be burned out examine it and, if necessary, replace it.
