To put the worker roll into motion, throw the stop 

 button on the leg over far enough to come in contact

 hold the internal gear stationary and cause the pinion 

 to revolve on the inside of the larger gear, thus turning 

 the worker. When the machine is operated by power, 

 the speed for churning is regulated by the speed of 

 the pulley, which should run about 2CO revolutions per 

 minute. 



For working the butter the eccentric lever is thrown 

 to the left and the stop button turned to come in con- 

 tact with the extension on the internal gear as de- 

 scribed above. 



When the machine is furnished for power and power 

 is not used, remove the drive chain from the large 

 sprocket, before using for hand power. 



Do not change the speed from slow to high when 

 the machine is running, as there is a possibility of 

 breaking the gear clutch.

 the barrel with the door removed and the door open- 

 ing turned down. 



After churning for a short time, the vent should 

 be opened to allow the gas, which forms, to escape.
