A combination electric and hand

is the Liberty Starter. made by the
Liberty Starters Corporation. of New
York. Its development was encour-
aged by the need of reliable and tune
saving devices for airplsnes used In

its first appearance before the public
at the Aeronautical Exposition. After
passing through the rigid tests Of the
Bureau OF Steam Engineering Of the
Navy Department, n number of these
starters were made for the govern
mcnt.
The Liberty has a number of dis
tinct features of engineering design.
One of these is its reduction of p to
through two gears, one-third of the
teeth being in mesh at all times. II

According TO the most practical
methods, the starting mechanism for
an aeroplane engine should really be-
come an integral part Of. and not IN
any way interfere with. the air lines
OF the engine itself. The designers OF
the Liberty follow this practice by
making their starter so that il can
be attached directly to the crsnkshstt

combines electric and hand starting in
one device. and weighs less than

To find the horsepower Of your mo-

is the rule adopted by the Society of

absolutely accurate, only being ap-
