View showing manner of setting vv the Mill, with Guide Pulley Attachment. 



Patented August 24th, 1886. 

 The above attachment can be placed in the Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5 or 8 Mills. 



By the use of the above attachment, as shown on the side of the Mill, the Mills can be run without the 

 use of a counter shaft on the floor, which is a great objection to all Mills run in this manner where floor spaco 

 is limited. By this invention the Mills can now be run dii-ect from the main shaft on ceiling above or 

 ceiling of floor below, if sufficient speed can be obtained, otherwise from a counter-shaft on the ceiling and 

 at any angle to the shaft, no more room being required on the floor than what the mill occupies. Pulley on 

 Mill, 10 in. diameter, 6 in. face ; average speed required, 600. 



Price for above attachment for Nos. 2, 3, and 4 Mills, ... $30 00

Directions fok Using Nos. 2, 5 and 8 Mills fob dry Substances. 



The Mill should be run to the right as the arms in the pulley will direct, and make not less than 300 

 and may run 600 or even 800 revolutions per minute. The Mill may be fed as fast as desired ; nearly any 

 quantity can be ground by increasing the speed. The lever acts as a guard ; it yields and delivers any ob- 

 struction which would take more power to crush than the material the Mill is grinding. The weight is (or 

 should be) sufficient to keep the plates up when grinding. By screwing down the adjusting screw at the side 

 of the Mill, it separates the plates and causes the Mill to grind coarsely. The adjusting screw must be turned 

 in the opposite direction if wanted to grind finer. To separate the upper plate from the top of the Mill, 

 place the end of the wrench in the hole in the ring which is on top of the Mill, and turn it to the right; this 

 screws the ring off and separates the plate, being a back-handed screw, for the purpose of keeping the ring 

 on the tube of the upper plate while the Mill is running. 



There are three places to be well supplied with oil ; the first is the step in which the end of the shaft 

 revolves : the second is the bearing box, which holds the shaft in its upright position — this is done by 

 pouring oil through a tube which leads to the box ; the third place is the upper bearing of the Mill — in this 

 is a large reservior for holding oil, and should bo filled with at least a gill of oil before starting the Mill. 

 It is poured in through a tube or just over the bearing of the Mill. After it is supplied with oil, a stopper 

 should be placed in the opening of the tube, to keep the dust from getting in. The adjusting sorew is held 

 firmly in any position by a set screw against its side. The feeding is regulated by a shoe acting against the 

 tube of the upper plate, which causes tho shoe to vibrate ; this, with the slide in the hopper, regulates the 

 quantity fed into the Mill. Screw holes aro made round the rim of the hopper, for tho purpose of extending 

 its size to any dimensions required. The Mill can be taken apart, cleaned and the plates changed (if neces- 

 ary, in a few minutes). In putting the cover on tho Mill, the word " Eccentric" on tho cover must come to 

 the front (over the spout.)
