Packed Joint base. The under button and base top
each formed with peculiar groove made to
hold asbestos rope packing. When this is in
serted and the parts bolted together. a joint Is
formed that is freproof air tight and indestruct-
ibe. 1t is better than base cast in one piece, be-
cause expa nson of either part will not result in
breakage. The joint between the fire pot and base
top is made in the same manner. THE ASH PIT
is deep and massive, and the ash door fits upon
straight seat, perfectly tight. The DRAFT VALVE
is operated by means of screw and hand wheel.
Two complete turns of the wheel releases the
and permits the valve to be thrown back, dis
closing the opening for the shaker. This obviates
the necessity for shaker opening into the ash pit.
BALL BEARING CRATE RESTS UPON STEEL
BALLS three-quarters of an inch in diameter, and
without friction. 1t has cone center and
both shakes and dumps. HOT BLAST BURN
Err. At the top of the fire pot and extending
completely around the stove the inside is
hollow ring chamber, which receives air through
a damper under the feed door, and discharges it
through small perforations. This supplies oxygen
for burning the gases and for burning fine coal:
it also protects the sheet steel the point where
it is subject to most injury.

Every Stove a Circulator

In the rear is Circulating Flue that receives
the colder air the floor and discharges it in
heated condition at the top of the stove. This fue
riveed to the stove body and helps to sustain the
weight of the upper top and stove pipe, hence the
body will ever buckle.
