Report on the Exhibition of Implements, 
in position hy a 5-in. T-ended stay, which is shown detached at Fig. 17, and 
in position at Fig. 18, which gives a sectional elevation of the discs. When 
the half-discs require changing, the nut nearest the spindle is screwed back, 
and the T-end of the stay detached from a pair of lugs cast on the disc and 
shown in Fig. 18. The disc is then lifted out of position by hand, and replaced 
by a disc with the kind of cutters required, which is secured in position by 
again screwing up the nut on the stays.

The Judges tested the machine as a turnip-cutter, and 
found the action very satisfactory, the finger-like pieces being 
uniform in size. No part of the root can escape from the 
machine without being cut, and the arrangement of the knives 
appears to lessen the draught. The machine has a new hopper 
of large capacity, composed in the top part of angle-iron, and in 
the bottom of round wrought-iron bars, through which dirt, 6cc., 
can escape. The combined machine, CCA, fitted for the three 
operations, costs Bl. 5s. If as a pulper and slicer only, 71. If 
as a pulper and cutter for sheep only, 71. The simple turnip- 
cutter, C A, costs 4/. 155.
