The James Feed Trucks 



SPECIFICATIONS 

 i6-Bushel Truck 



BOX: Constructed of clear selected lumber, strongly reinforced by side cleats. Bottom 

 IS No. 1 8-gauge galvanized sheet steel. Extreme length 68 inches, width 26 

 inches, height 24 inches. Ends slanting to make shoveling easy. The weight of the 

 feed box is equally balanced on the wheels so that when filled the truck can be run 

 along any reasonably smooth floor or walk with but little effort. 



WHEELS: Arrangement of the wheels is such that the truck can be turned around in 

 a space of 75 inches in diameter. 



MAIN WHEELS: 12 inches in diameter, 2-inch face. End wheel anti-friction 

 swivel, 6-inch diameter, 2-inch face. 



AXLE: I -inch solid cold rolled steel, with set collars; axle and wheels run freely. 

 Extreme length of shaft 32 inches. 



BEARINGS: All bearings that get wear in operation are machined, to assure accurate 

 fit and smooth surface; this reduces friction, lessens wear, increases ease of operation 

 and adds greatly to life of carrier. Bearings that are left merely cored, as they 

 come from foundry, are covered with sand roughness, which cuts into metal like so 

 much emery. Hence the great importance of machined bearings. 



CAPACITY: 16 bushels. 



WEIGHT: Approximately 200 pounds. 



Can be made special in other widths to meet conditions, if alleys or doors are too
