This is an immense piece of engineering, the size of the flyweight on the wheel and the braking system are indicators of a very large engine. The bearing on the push rod assembly is obviously lubricated via the gland under the steel bolt.
Just looking at this piece of machinery brings home how inventive the engineers have been in the making of these huge components.No shiny surfaces here but the cast surfaces speak of power and strength. Thank you for adding this to the project METALWORK AND ENGINEERING ITEMS.
