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.

LAMP MECHANISM 29 governor engages and disengages the feeding mechanism. A knob or nut is provided for adjusting the spring that controls the feeding time. First get the arc at the best operating point by hand regulation, then adjust the knob on the dial with the pointer so that this arc length is maintained. Xote: With this, as with other devices, it is a good plan to keep a tabulated check (over a period of time), on the settings that give the desired arc with the various line voltages that usually occur in your particular case. With this at hand you can always re-set quickly to cover such changes as are likely to come up in daily conditions. Warning: Controller motors are invariably D. C. If, in an emergency, you change to A. C, do not use the controller motor. In that case disconnect the lead, or other contact, from the motor to the device and feed by hand ichile using A. C. 6. With Peerless Automatic Same Applies to Motor Relay Types (a) — The arc voltage governs the strength of the magnetic pull which gives contact in the relay to start the motor. The spring acts against this pull to open the motor circuit. By adjusting the spring tension, the instant of feed and stop can be regulated in this type. By such adjustment you regulate the arc length, and hence the arc voltage and the
