Description: |
Abstract:
The object of my invention is to produce means by which the traction-engine may be moved backward easily by hand-operated mechanism, thus enabling it to be adjusted while at work, such mechanism being also of a character to hold the entire engine in adjusted position.
Claim:
The combination, with a traction-engine and the driving-gearing thereof, of an adjusting-worm, suitable supports therefor, and means for swinging said adjusting-worm into or out of mesh with one of the driving-gears. |
