1. The shifting spur-gear G, provided with a concentric pinion, H, in connection with the pinions d d on the feed-roll shafts, and the intermediate pinions K L, all arranged to operate so as to vary the speed of the feed-rollers according to the length of cut required, substantially as shown and described.
2. The intermediate pinions K L placed on fixed-studs or axes, in combination with the pinions d d on the feed-roll shafts, arranged substantially as and for the purpose specified.
3. Securing the fixed cutter or leger-blade M to its bed-piece by means of bolts A A, the heads of which are fitted in oblong slots, in the cutter or plate, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
4. The adjusting-keys 0 0, passing vertically, or nearly so, through the fixed cutter or leger-blade, and arranged in relation with the frame or head D of the feed-rollers, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
5. Constructing the fixed cutter or leger-blade M of curved form in its transverse section, and having the inner edge of the same slotted, as shown, for the purpose set forth.
